2 newly identified MTG newsstand variants - Shadow Mage #1 and #2. The Shadow Mage #1 has a newsstand UPC sticker over the direct sales UPC area.

Nice to see this thread resurrected. Prior to relaunch this was about our only resource for 'new' Valiants. :lol:

If so, no one has out come and said it. Also has anyone found Solar #50 newsstand? And no one answered whether there's a Magnus #57 regular and error newsstand.

I picked up a copy of Magnus 57 newsstand and it's the corrected version. I am not sure if the Magnus 57 error newsstand version exists.

someone on the CGC board was asking if there were separate direct and newsstand versions of the VH2 books. Anyone know?

No newsstands that I know of... but I've never looked for them. :lol:

There were a couple of "pre-pack only" books, the no UPC versions of Turok Empty Souls and Turok Tales of the Lost Land.

I've never seen any. I looked through my collection the other day to double check. Nada.

Congrats. So that's the corrected version. I am not sure if the newsstand version of Magnus 57 error exists.

I just won a lot on eBay. From the pic, it looks like I may be adding a new issue to the list. I will confirm once I receive the book. :hope:

This one was previously identified but this is my first copy. And is poly-bagged with the tokens (still sealed).

Not sure if there is anyone here near the St. Louis area, but STL Comics has a ton of Valiant (and other 90s) newsstand comics in their 50 cent boxes. I just grabbed a bunch myself. The biggest score was two newsstand copies of Solar #60 that are probably in good enough condition to send to CGC.
