Article Summary

  • Marvel Comics halts second printings for key titles, sparking industry speculation.
  • Cancelled titles include Hellhunters, Star Wars: Legacy Of Vader, Wolverine, and Spider-Man.
  • Second printings had unique variant covers now unavailable to collectors.
  • Changes hint at Marvel's revised demand levels for reprints.

PrintWatch: Marvel Comics has cancelled a number of second printings of titles that were planned to be republished in March. It may be they just didn't get the numbers they expected to justify it. But for so many to be cut all at once suggests that there is a new cut-off level or demand being imposed on such internally. Here are the second printings and covers that would have been, for Hellhunters, Star Wars: Legacy Of Vader, Wolverine and Your Friendly Neighbourhood Spider-Man.
