SET DETAILS
Owner's Description
The thick cardstock covers of this series are prone to manufacturing defects. Folding the semi-gloss printed covers around the books invariably cracks the ink along the spine. Worse, the blades used at Fantagraphics's printer (and Kitchen Sink's before them, frankly) were rarely up to the task of cleanly slicing the heavy stock, so bindery tears at the top and bottom of the spines are common. But this issue seems to have gotten the worst of it. I've seen copy after copy where what started as a bindery tear (mostly at bottom, but sometimes at both ends) has propagated upward, effectively creating an "almost spine split" that extends through about three-quarters of the thickness of the cover stock.
Comichron recorded 5302 ordered copies for this issue.
I'd love to have all these books in 9.8, but I'm just glad that I finally found a sound copy of this issue.
