Every now and then I'll search for a Harbinger #1 reader copy to complete my run (that's all I need for that series). When I do, I always search for misspellings such as "Harbringer." I usually find quite a few Harbinger auctions listed under that spelling.
I would agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

I use a search site that misspells your search terms for ebay searches.

Check out the Acclaim version of Harbinger and you'll get a pretty good idea....

Good grief, what a waste of money.

WHY would someone send those in for grading? Maybe the gold issue, but only if you were thinking 9.8.

I'm not sure if I should get this Turok 1 VVSS for $75.00 or the Spawn #1 for $50. Someone flip a coin, these deals don't come along every day!

Well I think I'll just stick with my unsigned ones. Signed ones are nice to have but but I am more interested in the comic itself than having it signed.

Mainly it's just a select few signed books that most Valiant collectors are after. The ones that come with Valiant certificates or V.V.S.S. books as we call them.

It's the rare variant #2 issue which looks like the cover to issue #0.
