Owner's Description

2012 POPEYE # 1 SECOND PRINTING by IDW PUBLISHING APRIL 2012. THIS SECOND PRINTING of POPEYE PRINTED WITH THE DIFFERENCE`S of THE RED BORDER AROUND "POPEYE" ON THE COVER, FIRST PRINTING IS A BLACK BORDER & REVERSE OF THIS COPY HAS THE TEENAGE MUTANT TURTLES WHEREAS THE FIRST PRINTING HAS A FREE COMIC BOOK DATE ADVERTISEMENT. THE LETTERING OF POPEYE ON THIS PRINTING IS IN YELLOW, WHEREAS FIRST PRINTING it's RED. VERY DIFFICULT FINDING THESE COMICS IN RAW UNGRADED FORM, EVEN MORE, DIFFICULT TO FIND A 9.8 CGC GRADED COPY. DRIVES ME NUTS CGC LUMPS THE COMICS TOGETHER IN THE POP CENSUS / THIS ONE IS NO EXCEPTION. CGC SHOULD SEPARATE FIRST AND SECOND PRINTINGS. IM PRETTY CERTAIN THIS IS PROBABLY THE ONLY COPY GRADING 9.8 BUT CANT TELL BECAUSE OF THEM LUMPED TOGETHER ON THE CENSUS. ITS THE ONLY COPY I HAVE SEEN IN 9.8 BUT??? JUST CAN'T BE 100% POSITIVE / KNOWING HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO FIND UNGRADED I FEEL CONFIDENT SAYING MUST BE ONE OF 5 AT MOST. HONESTLY THINK ITS THE ONLY ONE. AS OF 2 / 10 / 2019 THERE ARE 22 9.8 CGC COPIES, MOST WERE GRADED BEFORE RELEASE OF THIS SECOND PRINTING. ONLY ONE SIGNATURE SERIES THAT COPY IS IN THIS SET. THIS COMIC by ROGER LANDRIDGE STORY, BRUCE OZELLA COVER, AND ART...EXCELLENT FIND FOR THIS SET SERIOUSLY DOUBT THERE ARE OTHERS GRADED 9.8.
