ppint. 16th Mar 2018		near-identical editions/printings sharing merkin-printed covers and hence also cat# and: cover art by jim steranko (signed) cover price 75¢ 192pp. including titles, indica etc. refer to indica to see whether the carcass of the copy you hold was merkin- or canadadian- printed. no priority established nor liable to be. sequel to "star barbarian "(1969), q.v.



ppint. 15th Mar 2018		shares cat#, most of the 192pp. setting (plates printed from), and cover art by jim steranko (signed) all taken from previous lancer books editions/printings, but new cover price $1.50 and magnum books name & logo replacing lancer's 192pp. including titles, indica etc. date of this magnum books mmpb is^W was wrong and should be^W^W has been deleted. this was almost certainly a 1975 publication - possibly late 1974 - after lancer books went into bankruptcy, but whilst a fast-moving entrepreneur who still knew where the plates were, and which printers & binders would print up a few tens of thousands of copies, that he could shift fast to the wholesalers he knew that'd pay immediate cash in exchange for a much deeper than normal discount off the new $1.50 cover prices... some/all? magnum / prestige / (etc.) titles distributed by ace books, inc. and - iirc - by grosset & dunlap after they bought charter communications (who'd bought ace books, but ran out of cash/credit).

ppint. 12th Nov 2017		the dates given for these lodestar/magnum/prestige editions may easily be incorrect: that previously given for this title was the date for the lancer books first edition, and during the messy bankruptcy of that publishing company, various of their published books became available under one or more of the three imprints, distributed in merkia by various wholesalers, listed in the catalogues of mainly ace books, inc.'s publications, but definitely not published by ace, nor anymerkin anything to do with ace books, inc. - nor, sometimes, with any detectable connexion to the wreck of lancer books, inc. . . this would have appeared late 1974 - 1975, most likely 1975.
