or

note in the listing sub-title it says 1b is the retailer version with 'blank pages'. so look inside. if you have blank pages (a printing error obviously) you have 1b, if not, you have 1c. a google search will tell you these things smile

Yes, I did see that somewhere, but my copy is still sealed in its original bag, so I would rather not open it.

if your bag is sealed and $2.50 cover price with the poster etc, you do not have the blank pages one. that was a retailer promo pack version that came in it's own special packaging and sent to retailers. from what I can tell by pics, it was not polybagged inside the pack.

Correct. The "blank pages" version are advance samples provided to retailers so they could show customers what the gimmick cover would look like on the actual comic itself. I think I have two with blank pages and I think they are different version of the gimmick cover. They were not polybagged as that would have defeated the purpose of the demo.
