They also made 3 different packs that are really tough to get sealed.

Here's one:

by the way...it is only available as photocopies of interior pages...as it never made it to the binding or cover stage...not even sure if it was colored..

I imagine the last several issues (just like the Acclaim comics) should be the rarest.

Those were just reprints of the original versions, right?

Isn't Marvel doing new Classics Illustrated with brand new art?

Not all of them. Some of those books were only available in the Acclaim form. The first link I posted denotes which books were originals.

This reminds me of how in the 90's Marvel did a 12 issue comic on the story of Easter....I almost bought #1 because at the time EVERY new Marvel title in the beginning had a guest apearence from Spiderman....So I just knew one of the covers would have a little caption stating "Next issue King Herod has new born males killed" Guest starring The Amazing Spiderman!! Wait weren't Gilad and Armstrong supposedly Mustketeers!!?? What about that time Tom Sawyer tricked Magnus into white washing the fence because he said it scared robots...And didn't it turn out that Injun Joe was in reality Turok trapped in the past??

the classics illustrated were based on classic novels...no appearences by any Valiant hero...
