No kidding. I just sold 13 of those Previews a couple of months ago to other board members for cost (shipping and paypal).

For a much tougher challenge, try putting together the entire STARTING OVER Acclaim storyline from Previews circa 1997.
And that story has never been reprinted.
Sounds like a scan to be posted somewhere.

So is it like Acclaim #0? (no jokes, I really want to know) Does it explain the switch from VH1 to VH2?

Not really. It's more an introduction of the new Acclaim universe centered on Magnus with hints or lead-ins to the new characters. Some were shown (such as Ivar), others weren't. For example, Q&W weren't shown, but their fathers appear in a brief intro story.

Haven't read it in a couple years,,,let me dig them out.

Got mine, and I'd consider it a bargain at twice the price.

I had one when I first joined here. I forgot who I sold it to. It was cut out and stapled together. I bought it like that from a comic store where I used to live along with the rest of his Valiant stuff at the time.

I think there was a one-page Punx ad in the format of a comic book page. Not contributing to any story or anything.

yeah, I got alot of mine from mycomicshop. they have more if you look at their wesite. , www.mycomicshop.com , I don't know how many more they have though. If you are looking for the previews that it is in, it is the June 1993 issue . it is good to find them because alot of them have an autographed copy of Plasm #0 signed by jim Shooter . I know Plasm #0 sucks but at least it is signed by the Man , Jim Shooter.
