Marvel Tells Retailers To Print X-Men: Evolution TPB Misprint Page
Remember when it was pointed out that the Superman By Grant Morrison Omnibus contained a page in which the dialogue didn't appear? And DC Comics decided to recall and reprint the entire print run, which would have cost quite the tidy sum? Well, Marvel Comics doesn't do that.
It has been noted that the X-Men: Evolution trade paperback published by Marvel in February has a misprinted page in which dialogue was duplicated erroneously.
Marvel has chosen not to recall and reprint the small collection. But to tell retailers that "the corrected page is available for download from Marvel's Retailer Tools Page on Diamond's Retailer Services Website." So, basically, retailers can print the page in question and give it or email it to customers. Though retailers who have contacted Bleeding Cool tell me that they can't actually find the page on said Diamond's Retailer Services Website.
Alternatively, retailers who previously ordered this trade may request a free code for a digital version of this trade by contacting Marvel. And give that to customers instead.
