ComicMix Radio: Printing Errors Fuel Speculators Dreams
Episode #261: Look Closely - It's All On The Bottle
As we told you on Tuesday's broadcast, DC has been plagued with a few printing errors one of which was Action Comics #869 that was recalled last week and redistributed this week. Why? The answer is a little simple, literally, plus:
- Heroes' website expands including new web episodes
- Marvel's original online comics are here
- Meet the cast of ABC Family's Samurai Girl
And if you think we are kidding about Action #869, there are several on eBay right now for as much as $39.99.
Stop laughing and Press the Button!

That's not a printer error, that's an editorial decision made after the fact.

Actually it's both. The bottle was supposed to say "root beer" and it probably did, but the "root" was not clear, yet "beer" was.
And, by cracky, isn't "soda pop" so much more hip and relevant?

I still don't get the big deal. The label says root beer. People just can't seem to read it.

And anyway, Clark should be drinking milk! Or some kind of Earth-variation of Kryptonian ice tea. And they got the man on the moon wrong, too. For some reason it looks like Brainiac. What a disaster all around. I'm surprised the issue got out this week!
