Seeing Double with Gredown again... and Page!


...and some double-dipping of a different kind...

Ah - ha - well spotted, Spiros!

As I mentioned privately, I thought that the "This Comic Is Haunted" cover looked somewhat different to the bulk of Gredowns!

One possibility- rather than being sourced directly from Syywald (US publisher of "Psycho"), perhaps both were sourced independently from European / Spanish suppliers? After all, Gredown published a lot of Spanish-sourced material, and I believe Skywald did as well. I believe that one of Kevin's columns may have touched on this.

Cheers

Mark

Thanks for the TCIH scan to begin with Mark.

The cover image is actually from the US Psycho #8 http://www.comics.org/coverview.lasso?id=25461&zoom=4
painted by Jose Mirelles.

I'm not sure what to make of the image being used by both Gredown and Page. There's a number of possibilities. I wonder how many more such examples there are?
