| Is this the correct indicia page? Both the coupon call-out near the bottom, and the indicia show "Wonderworld Comics" when this should be Mystery Men Comics. Just wondering if the wrong page was inserted, or if the comic was published incorrectly. |
|
| Seems like the wrong indicia page. At least, I can tell from the tears in the page that this isn't the reverse side of the cover scan from page 1. It says Wonderworld, October issue, No. 18 (at least the month is correct) instead of Mystery Men Comics No. 15. |
