This topic is about The Red Ten #1 and #2. Before Comix Tribe got direct distribution through Diamond, they released the first two issues using micro-distribution (direct sales to the fans). They released #1 in 2011 and #2 in 2012 then paused the series once they got Diamond distribution. They re-released #1 at the end of 2012 with a different color artist (they were unhappy with the original color). Issue #2 came out in 2013 then the series continued after that.
You can spot the difference between the two covers because the original micro-distribution editions are both very red. The Diamond versions are more subdued.
Right now in the Core, The Red Ten #1A and B are listed as Digital comics. Not physical. #1B also says Digital Deluxe. Iâm hoping to clean up this title as I own the original two versions of # 1 & 2 and the rest of the series.
My proposed âfixesâ:
