  • Facsimile / reprint$4.99

    Action Comics #775 Facsimile Edition Blank Variant Cover D

    A modern reprint of the original cover. Often looks identical in photos, but it is not the collectible book — these sell for a few dollars.

    Same title and issue number, but a different relaunch. Daredevil #1 exists in six volumes — the 1964 key and the 2023 reboot are not the same book.
