Anyone have a scan of the IFC of the 2nd print of Comix Book #4 to show where it states "Reprint"?
Sorry, I can't be of any help but I'm curious...
I didn't realize any of those issues got two printings and now that I look at Kennedy, wow, what an odd thing. If Kennedy's right the first three issues were 200,000. I guess it wasn't selling as well as expected so they dropped the print run all the way down to 5,000. Holy shit, what a drop! But, apparently, they managed to sell enough that they did a 2nd run of 5K. And then #5 they did one run of 10K. And then they gave up on it. That's kind of a weird printing history.
First three printings were by Marvel, then they dropped it and the next two issues were printed independently if I recall the story correctly, that explains why.
I've seen about 5 or 6 copies, but all seem to be 1st prints as I haven't found one that states "Reprint".
Last two issues were printed by Denis Kitchen and had much less distribution than Marvel's first three issues.
I have a 1st and 2nd print and I will try to dig them out for a scan tonight. Everything is so buried right now, it's been tough to contribute anything here lately.
Wow, I didn't remember that at all -- that's pretty interesting that they let him do that. Thanks, guys.

From what I can see, the "Second Printing" indicator is not on the IFC (page 2), but at the bottom left of page 3.
Thanks Sir Real, just what I was looking for.
By the way, your package is boxed and ready to go out today so you should get it tomorrow...
The items have arrived, on time, and most interesting. I'm gonna have to peruse these for awhile.
Domi arigato gazimus!
