Did anyone here know this? GCD states: "Variant edition exists; indicia was originally sent to print as "THE BRAVE & THE BOWL" and appeared in a substantial portion of the print run until the error was caught and the correction made."

It appears that when the error was caught, the plate was rather crudely modified to correct the error (the word BOLD is slightly higher than the other words).

A variant that cannot be determined by the cover. This should be interesting.

So would that mean that the majority of the run says BOWL and that the rarer copies are the corrected versions??

We don't know at what point in the print run the correction was made.

I don't think a misspelling is a variant. An error, but not a variant.

Here's what my copy looks like. You can tell the "BOLD" is printed slightly higher than the rest of the line. I don't think I've ever seen one with the word "BOWL", but then, was I ever looking until now?

Sitting in Logan Airport right now with my wife and son (unfortunately my daughter couldn’t fit it into her schedule - she’s off somewhere in Kentucky) waiting to board our plane to start our vacation in Italy. I hope I remember to check my issue when I get back. Pretty curious right now. Kind of reminds me of when I found out some copies of Dazzler #1 had 2 pages of ads in black and white and some copies were in color.

I agree that is just an error but I can see sellers call this an "error variant" just to cover their bases.

I also agree that it's an error- Just quoting GCD. One of my favorite sites, but they're obviously not perfect.

I'm not sure anyone got the joke though.

To everyone who posted images of the indicia, thank you very much. I'll add it to the thread.

Cheers
