I have several Marvel 'King-Size Specials' that I'm having trouble locating in the CPG. For instance, I have a Tower of Shadows King-Size Special #1. When I look in the Marvel listings in CPG, I see the normal issues and the Annual...but no King-Size Special. And, the same on other titles, too. I'm sure it's easy, and I'm doing something obviously wrong, but if anyone could steer me straight in this matter, I would appreciate it. Thanks, HH

Usually they are listed as Annuals, the King-Sized specials were discontinued in the 70's but the numbering remained as the annual number system. So if you have a King-Sized Special #1, look at the annual number 1.









Where does he get those wonderful toys!

I have yet begun to surrender.

Thanks for that. How about ther 'Giant-Size' Editions? I have a 'Giant-Size Dr. Strange'--among others--but it is not listed under "Dr. Strange, or even under "King-Size Dr. Strange", as I see some others are, like "Giant-Size Hulk" and "Giant-Size Avengers", which have their own listing. Any idea on that one...also "Giant-Size Captain Marvel" is not listed at all either. ~HH

Usually the Giant Size are listed with their associated titles unless the title is slightly different. Giant Size Hulk would be listed separately because The Incredible Hulk is the title of the regular comic. Dr. Strange is listed at the end of the Dr. Strange comic listings because it was the same title.
