X-O Manowar Unconquered Prestige 1 Printing Error

Post by Chiclo »

I got my first shipment of V-alien-t books. The foil on the cover of the X-O Manowar Unconquered Prestige Edition 1 is not applied where it should be, clashing with the Unconquered subtitle. It does make for a neat looking shadows with a raised X-O.

The nearest comic book store is about 60 miles away so I just order my books from DCBS. I habe not had the chance to see other examples of this comic. Is this a common printing error? Has anyone seen one like this?

(Forgive the poor quality of my photos)

I cannot claim the original idea but since the board autocorrects the version without the dashes, that seemed like a solution. Maybe V.alien.t?

It does? Weird. Let's see -- Valient.

Looks good to me.

Indeed.

So, now we have VH 1 for Voyager. VH 2 for Acclaim. VEI for VALIANT Entertaiment. And Valient for Alien books.

Their continuity hasn't changed, though. A logo like the one Acclaim used could be interesting, though.

Where's the sarcasm emoji when I need it? I think there's already too much Acclaim in VEI/DMG/Alien/VAliEnT.

No one said otherwise. Tough crowd on the boards tonight :tomato:

Do you hate the appearance of the error or the rarity of the error? I enjoy one and treasure the other.

I don't like errors getting out there lol, a lot would happen on those crazy incentives I had to...destroy! *shakes fist*

It scared me because I thought maybe there were several all messed up when the book came out, but this is the second one I've seen got out there, unless you were the same poster as before, hahaha.

I think the last physical thing I got direct from Valiant was the X-O Hardcover and that was around when I moved so VEI might not have my current address. :þ
