I did not know this cover existed! Just grabbed a copy off eBay, as I know I will not find one in the wild.

Thanks!

Alana always brings the obscure spec that turns into big news!

Thank you; had to go to ebay as well since I’ve never seen this one.

It’s all in Japanese so I’ll have to do the same using Google translate. I got 2 copies of volume 1 in and could not distinguish if it actually states 1st print or not.

Some comics don’t distinguish the 1st print but subsequent prints are noted as such in the indicia. I’m relatively confident that these are 1st prints but not 100% confident yet.

In case anyone is wondering, we are talking about the Deadpool Samurai Japanese manga editions - true 1st appearance of Sakura-Spider.

Thank you for the reply @ein! Greatly appreciated

No copies on Mercari and cheapest on eBay is now $25 + $5 s/h for the main cover. I have exactly zero copies unfortunately.

Great spec and you hit a gold mine

For an incredibly cheap spec make sure to grab a couple of Spiderman Venom FCBD 2021 Unstamped copies. The new character from issue 1 cameos in there on 1 panel.

Land virgin is what they used to call renters in ye olde days. It was customary to be urinated on by the landlord on the way in through the front door upon your first occupancy of the premises.

I think if you’re collecting Echo, you need all three… #9, #10 and #11.
#9 is the first appearance of Maya Lopez. We learn that she is a prodigy pianist and a fighter.
#10 we learn that she is also a dancer with “Echo” as her stage name.
#11 is the first appearance of Echo, that is, we see her in costume with weapons. She fights as well as Daredevil.
I think it’s issue #13 some kid sees her in costume and recognizes her as Echo the performer.
I put together the related pages from each issue:

I disagree if holding weapons constitute a first appearance since the character doesn’t have powers then the golden gun on the cover of #11 she is holding is in five panels in #9

…or the barcode. Keep EVERYTHING the same; identical to the original. So I can scam people and pass it off as the original for $100+…

Just start passing them through CGC at that point.
