Greetings from sunny San Diego. This is my first trip to California. Today I visited Los Angeles, which was uncharacteristically rainy. Better luck next time.
But that's not why I'm writing. I've run into something of an anomaly. You see, I brought several newly-aquired comic books on my trip, one of which is a copy of Marvel Team-Up #52, which I purchased for $3.50. Or so I thought.
Well, I mean, I did buy it for $3.50, definitely. But it's not MTU #52! Open it up, and it's a genuine copy of Spectacular Spider-Man #1, released the same month but worth about $40 more. My copy is some kind of printer's error, possibly one-of-a-kind, or possibly not. More internet research will be required.
Is my comic worth untold fortunes? Or just $45? Or was I ripped off at $3.50? Stay tuned to find out, Spider-fans.
I'm so not a comics fan, but I am curious as to how this will turn out!
