Re: v1/v2
Know nothing about this, but noticing Mgrabois' v2-->v1 change, if the series that Craigopher had listed as v2 is actually v1, IS there a v2? (Similarly, Gopher, what do/did you have down as v1?) - Reboot (SoM) talk page 01:47, 27 September 2006 (PDT)
- Secret Origins v1 #1 was published in 1961. There was only one issue of 80 pages, so it wasn't really a series. In 1998, DC released a replica edition of the same magazine. Overstreet lists another issue with it, but that had Even More Secret Origins on the cover and was really #8 of the Eighty Page Giant series.
- Secret Origins v2 #1 was published in 1973, and there were a total of seven issues in the series, of which the issue we're discussing is #6 published in 1974. This series used the same logo as the issue in 1961, but since it started with a new #1, you need the v2 to distinguish between them.
- Secret Origins v3 #1 was published in 1986. It was followed by another 49 issues through 1990. This series also had a few Annuals and a Special. It used a different logo than the other two series.
- Given the various details involved, the version numbers can be debated. However, since there are three different #1's, to me it seems that my original numbering is correct. I really don't care what we call it, as its the only issue #6 that has anything to do with the Legion. There are Legion stories in the v3 series, but none of them are #6. --Gopher 05:15, 27 September 2006 (PDT)
- Crap. I thought that original issue was officially titled "Secret Origins 80-Page Giant" or was an issue of the "80-Page Giant" series, but my personal official arbiter (Overstreet) says otherwise. The GCD is down at the moment but I'm sure they'd say the same thing. In my own comics tracking database I have the 1973 series as v1, that must be why I entered it here. I'll revert the changes.
