I have been collecting for a long and this one has me confused.
I have Spider-Girl 1/2 with the Wizard certificate. - okay so far. Looking at the book inside the original bag - It has a hologram on lower right side of the cover that says "WIZARD" I take the comics out of the bag - the hologram is on the bag, not on the comic. What the? Is this the copy with the hologram or was there a copy where the hologram was printed on the comic itself? Thanks

I have a couple of those and I have seen quite a few more, I have never seen "wizard" printed directly on the book, only on the bag. I was a diligent Wizard #1/2 collector, I sent in every chance I got.

Thanks for clearing this up - I am going to update my CPG Spider-Girl 1/2 picture with the bag and cert here https://comicspriceguide.com/sales/kdscomics/spider-girl/0.5A/phyyhtx
Does this work for everyone? I really like the new wrap-around cover pictures - why not cover with hologram bag and cert? Thanks
What do you think?

This site is the only one that I know of that makes the "Hologram" distinction. The hologram on the bag came on every #1/2 book you sent for (I have a pile of around 50 of them) Like I said, I've never seen a book with the "wizard" printed directly on the book itself. I could be wrong ( I doubt it ) but I think the two listings are the same, one with the bag and one without.That would be wrong, having the bag does not make it worth $10 more. The bags are inter-changeable. I wish the picture showing the "hologram" was less cropped so you could tell if it was in a bag or not.

I have Wizard's Lady Death 1/2 and Wizard's Avengelyene 1/2 - neither have a hologram on the bag. Darkchylde 1/2 - one issue came with certificate, and another came with holo logo and certificate (holo on the bag or the book?) We need a new thread just to catalogue this craziness!!!
A good partial list is here.

The Darkchylde uissues are correctly catalogues at CPG here
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/darkchylde/uiyt
Hope this add to the complete and total confusion...

At that time, Wizard was selling comic supplies.. No book ever had the Wizard holo. Just the bags. The early 1/2 didn't have holos, just the later ones.

That would be incorrect. See Darchylde 1/2 with holo on comic from 1997. Huzzah!!
