There are a total of 115 issues: Suspense Comics 1-12, Punch Comics 1-2, 9-23, Chamber of Chills 1-26, Weird Mysteries 1-12, Weird Chills 1-3. Then 15 of the keys from those series all had a silver foil, blood red foil, and flourescent cover (chamber 19,23; suspense 3,8,11-12; weird mysteries 4-6,12; punch 9,12; weird chills 1-3). Kickstarter campaign, I also believe they did some con stuff as well Macroverse Authentic Editions. Hopefully this is sufficient information. I don’t have all 115, and I don’t really want to have to take photos of all that I do have if I don’t have to.

I know there’s a lot here, I was just seeing if there was any progress or a gameplan to get these entered.
The various versions of Frightening 15 set are the only ones that have been printed so far.
Ahhhh, understood. I thought they were all out at this point. Are the frightening 15 in the works or waiting on the whole lot? They’ve also got an Archie set that’s going to be coming out as well.
The Frightening 15 are being shipped now. Supposedly the last batch goes out this week. No word on the printing of the rest of the horror facsimiles. The Archie stuff is after that.
Are they going into core anytime soon? Whatever is currently out.

If you can provide us with useable images and corresponding issue related information we can use, or maybe a link to this, then yes, we will do our best to add these to Core.
We do need something to work with however.

Should these just be added as variants of the original books they are facsimiles of?

There are also these extra variant covers included in the Everything Everything set:
The Frightening 15 with Fluorescent Ink Variant Covers
The Frightening 15 with Red Foil Variant Covers
The Frightening 15 with Silver Foil Variant Covers
I just noticed, these can be marked as added. Though, and I know you guys are too busy to deal with this anytime soon, I would still argue that these should not be all listed as The Frightening Fifteen numbers 1-15. The “collection” is named that, but these books are all facsimiles of books that already exist with proper titles, numbers and several with other facsimiles listed with them. I know, I know, I’m a nerd lol.
Thank you so much for getting them in period!
Hi, we won’t be adding them under the originals. They were not printed by the original publisher.
We weren’t that strict in the early days with cataloging reprints under the originals or these might have just slipped trough the cracks. I’ll move them over when I get the chance to, thank you for letting me know!
