Mega Rare Error Comic, DC Teen Titans #6, Marvel Two-In-One #74 Inside CGC 7.5
UNIQUE AND EXTREMELY RARE ERROR COMIC!! CGC Certified 7.5, Near pristine Off-White- White Pages.

Green Label, Certified and Qualified Manufacturing Error. With a DC Comics cover; and with Marvel Comics inside pages!! A DC COVER ON A MARVEL COMIC!!!! Cover is of Issue #6, The New Teen Titans Volume 1 (1980-84), cover publishing date April, 1981.

Inside pages are from Issue #74, Marvel-Two-In-One, publishing date April, 1981. Only two known copies exist actually, maybe only one; you would have to. Confirm this with the CGC since another error comic shows in the census.

But unable to ascertain if that error comic has the same characteristics!!! An update: There are apparently a total of three "qualified" green label copies of this issue now, (according to the CGC census, including this one) but the characteristics of these other graded comics are unknown.

One would assume, without additional information, that these other two listed at the CGC have the same type of error. Yes, thats right, the most improbable error that you could think of, a DC Comics cover with a Marvel interior. This is a once-in-a-lifetime error comic, certainly never to be repeated again because the circumstance of this. "Perfect storm" are not present anymore. Whether or not this is a key DC or Marvel issues is important, but less important.

(yes, of course it would have been nice if it were a key like New Teen Titans #2, 1st Deathstroke, but it's not). 1 Its a comic icon representing both DC and Marvel universes. Dc and Marvel have long since been the giants of the comic publishing industry. And the movie and toy franchises that followed.

They are the "kings of comics", and will remain so for many years aside from the. They have been strong competitors for over 70 years, and remain at odds, each with their. Known and respected key characters and plot-lines.

This comic represents an unwilling and unforeseen combinatorial error, that brings. Both iconic values into one solitary object. 2 It is an error comic, but an error that will not be repeated ever again; an extremely rare error of the most. Most print errors or production errors are simple ones.

For example a missing color on the cover. A missing staple, an extra cover in bindery, a misplaced numbering effect, an additional label or designation that. Should not have been printed. These errors are usually ALL within a certain run, a certain publishing job, and are unusual. This particular error occurred at the printer.... ONLY because BOTH competitors had decided to use. The same printer AT THE SAME TIME; AND because the printer sheets for one comic WERE NOT (as they traditionally are). Separated from the production materials of another comic; AND because the sheets were used to prep a different print. Job; AND because these "make-ready" sheets that became books were not discarded; AND this copy survived distribution. AND newsstands (if errors are noticed they are usually recalled or destroyed). At the time Marvel Comics was a division of Cadence Industries, and began printing at Ronald's Printing. In Canada just before DC made the same decision. Why would they decide to print in Canada?

Printing (from 65dpi to 120 dpi) was possible, given that sales of the New Teen Titans were doing well in 1980-81. Bob Spivak, the representative from Ronald's Printing convinced them that they could achieve far greater margins. So they shifted to using the offset presses at Ronalds Printing out of Canada, mainly.

Because Ronalds M1000-B offset press could produce 60,000 16-page sections an hour; and they could distribute. Through Diamond Distribution, a source that would be challenged as the "direct" editions became more prominent in sales. For this particular book, it is assumed that the Marvel Two-In-One #74 issue was printed and distributed first, as a. Run in late February or March 1981. Remainders, unbound signatures of the "guts" of the book would have persisted in the print.

Shop as "make-ready" for future runs of exclusively Marvel issues. Most likely there was still a partial stack.

Or so of "make-ready" that was used to gear up the cover and stapling of the Marvel runs, and some of these were. Mixed up with the DC run.

The New Teen Titans #6, which would have been printed in late February or early-mid. March used these rogue Marvel "make-readies".

3 It is unique, but there may be another example of this error but certainly much rarer in occurrence than Action Comics #1 or Amazing Fantasy #15. Compared to Action Comics #1 (53 recorded gradings) and especially Amazing Fantasy #15 (2651 graded copies), this one is 50-2500 times more rare. 4 It is maybe less desirable as Action #1 for the collectors who seek "key" appearances, because.

Action # 1 is THE KEY 1st appearance. However, for elite collectors who have the means, this represents. A very iconic historical object. It is the ultra-rare example of a comic manufactured with. BOTH DC and MARVEL materials.

This, for some collectors, is the reason to have it. It is an icon of the most desirable kind. 5 It has been certified as a "Manufacturing Error" by the Comic Guarantee Company, the CGC. Verified and authenticated this comic as a genuine "Manufacturing Error". That there appears to be no hand manipulation of the cover and interior; and more importantly, the binding. Staples, staple holes, staple paper intrusions, trim size, etc. Are consistent with an original mechanical.

This is the highest and most reliable verification of its authenticity in the world. Recognized worldwide as the most reliable and conscientious grading and verification group. Or "counterfeit" in any way.

It passes through a team of graders and authenticators and each and every one agree. As to its authenticity and its grading status. This one has been given a grade of 7.5, Very Fine, and is now. Part of the CGC census, their historical archive of grading records.

So what about extremely rare comics and their value in relation to other genres of collecting. At the top of the list, with a long and proven sales history is Action Comics #1, the first appearance of Superman. The value is due to the iconic value of Superman in comic history, its rarity in higher quality, and the perceived lack.

Of remaining issues to be found. The Certified Guarantee Corporation (CGC), the preeminent grading and certification authority.

Widely accepted as the renowned authority on comic authentication and census taking, has recorded 56 copies of this comic. In varying states of preservation.

Despite the considerable number of copies, the value remains, for most examples. Another example of a highly-value comic is Detective Comics #27, the first appearance of the legendary Batman. This again, is despite the number of certified copies graded and on record are 53. It is an iconic issue, and arguably as rare as Action Comics #1; which given its history, still is represented by 53 recorded issues. Indeed it is rare, but not unique by any means.

Even if rarity is a consideration, one can discover with Superman #1 there are 110 graded comics in the CGC census records. These would be the most sought after DC Comics issues, and of comics in general.

Amazing Fantasy #15, the first appearance. And far fewer copies were printed. Since it was only distributed in New York City, only five copies are known to exist. That will change, what with the value increasing by over 75% over the last three years.

Certainly, the existence of even more than 1000!!! These popular titles does not depress the market's appreciation of them. This is a special opportunity to own, arguably one of the rarest comics in the world! And please offer any additional qualifying information if you have it. (and thanks for commenting and helping to update the information on the CGC census). There have been hundreds of millions of comics produced over the period. Of comic production history, and there are only a few. Of these out there that have been certified.
