Re: Harbinger cover art question...

Theoretic question: If the original art for the cover of Harbinger #0 surfaced on eBay, would this be considered the cover art for 2 different comics.... Harbie Pink #0 & Harbie regular #0? And if so, would this probably go for twice as much? Boda Don't know about "twice", but that th...

It is almost tempting to buy the comic just to see the signature closer... /Magnus PS, for more shame look at his other auctions. He's stolen Greg's format without ...
