| @Rafel comics that are promotional, not meant for actual sale. They tend to be smaller than normal comic book size. They are called Ashcans because way back in the day they were meant to be thrown away and discarded after the actual book was published. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by DarthLegoOriginally Ashcans were produced to secure a legal copyright. Not sure when that changed. "Ashcan" means something different from what it had meant in the hobby for 50+ years. Stuff like this, or Superwoman, Double Action, etc.  |

| Originally, ashcans were designed to SHOVE UP YOUR ASS as they were smaller in physical size. Kidding! |
