One thing is for certain, the lives of these heroes and villains will never be the same again. - This is the first printing. Any 2nd printing will have the words "Second Printing" at the bottom of the first page. NOTE: Nearly all first printings contain a "Blue Galactus" from a printing error (a lack of magenta printing plates) that was corrected in later printings. While small number of First printings may have the correct colors, the majority of copies will have "Blue Galactus". Due to the frequency, "Blue Galactus" variants should be treated the same as other First Printings. 36 pages, full color. Cover price $0.75.

Marvel's monthly celebration of the finest super-hero crossover of them all continues with Battleworld about to be consumed by Galactus! Spider-Man is back in action and learning all the fresh tricks at his disposal courtesy of his new black costume - but his excitement might be short-lived as the assembled heroes, reunited with the X-Men, must mount an assault on the World-Eater with everything at stake! But is stopping Galactus even the right thing to do? Reed Richards isn't certain - and if he doesn't know what to do, what chance does anyone else have? It's one of the all-time great Marvel comic books, boldly re-presented in its original form, ads and all! Reprinting MARVEL SUPER HEROES SECRET WARS #8. 32 pages, full color. Rated T
