Above, my newly obtained Facsimile Edition of Irregular Tales #178, featuring Warlock; under, my replacement reproduction of the ’70s celebrated, which I’ve now had for decades – some distance longer than I ever owned its predecessor. Fortunately, the facsimile has the ‘persevered after subsequent web relate…’ traces, which no longer all Surprise facsimiles have. (Which prompts me to ask… why?)
One profit Surprise has over DC is that the reproduction of classified ads at some stage in their mags is sharper and clearer and some distance better looking than these of their Distinguished Competition. DC seemingly fine scan classified ads from published comics and, compared with their Surprise equivalents, they need to not reasonably as fine as they might presumably (or can also restful) be. I style no longer know what route of Surprise uses, however they’ve largely obtained it area on. Now if easiest they’d submit their facsimiles on matt paper in residence of the collected stuff, they’d be 100% supreme.
I’ve used an earlier scan from a outdated submit for the describe under, as I couldn’t be stricken digging through a cabinet attempting to search out the insist to re-scan. It will perchance presumably survey exactly the identical anyway, so there’s no point in giving myself extra work fine to withhold out a facet-by-facet comparison shot – no longer as soon as I will employ some computer ‘trickery’ to catch the identical attain.
Anyway, whereas you happen to don’t admire this key insist from the ’70s, right here’s your likelihood to rectify that anxiety by speeding out and procuring a facsimile of it at the present time. Otherwise it’s good to presumably presumably always enlighten one from eBay as I did. (That come, you do not even hold to leave the dwelling.)
Comments, observations, and reminiscences of this insist are most welcome, whereas you happen to were fortunate sufficient to admire it help in the day. And might presumably you esteem to survey a three-part duvet and film gallery of Warlock, it’s good to presumably presumably carry out so by clicking right here, right here, and right here.

And under is a ‘facet-by-facet’ describe, fine to make comparison more uncomplicated…
And now, under, the celebrated US insist…
…followed under by the US and UK variations facet-by-facet. Some tiny color diversifications, however that is a conventional incidence and can also fine be attributable to the vagaries of printing, in spite of whether they’re UK or US concerns. Also, the US describe changed into sourced from eBay, which might presumably also tale for any variations in the quality of color reproduction.
