A few notes about the listings for The Dark and Foodang on your site:
-The Dark (Vol.1) did not end with #3 - in fact, the contents of The Dark (Vol.1) #4 were the same as The Dark (Vol.2) #4 (except for the red foil on the cover of the later release), as described in The Perez Archives. I've attached the cover for The Dark (Vol.1) #4 (from www.milehighcomics.com) - note the differences in cover price and cover credits as compared to Vol. 2 #4 (seen on your site).
- I've attached the cover for The Dark Convention Book #1 (from www.mycomicshop.com). According to The Perez Archives listing, this convention book includes 2 one-page illustrations by Perez, along with front and back covers by George. The ad on your site mentions a Joe Jusko cover, but that appears to be wrong.
- The Dark cover by Todd Lidstone and George Perez seen in the 'Errata' section of your site was intended for The Dark (Vol.2) #8. I've attached the art that appeared in Previews Vol. IV #4 (April '94, for items scheduled to ship June '94), which was used to promote the book's release.
- Also related to the 'Errata' section - I've attached the Foodang (Vol. 2) #4 ad that appeared in Advance Comics #77 (May '95).
UPDATE:
A clarification re my email about The Dark #4 - while George Perez's contributions for The Dark (Vol.1) #4 and The Dark (Vol.2) #4 are identical, the comics themselves are not identical in their content. Artist Todd Lidstone is not credited on the cover of Vol.1 #4, yet his name does appear on the cover of Vol.2 #4 - I would say Lidstone's sequence pencils and inks from Vol.2 #4 (as credited in the checklist on your site) does not appear in Vol.1 #4.
