I am a Beatles Comic Collector - as well as others, but I have in my posession two different copies of MARVEL SUPER SPECIAL #7. One is a faded hardback (green tinge instead of purple) French version and the other is a Dutch version.
As these are not listed in the comic book guide I was just wondering what you think they might be worth. I have attached a photo for you to look at.

(Vu: Please note that MARVEL SUPER SPECIAL: BEATLES STORY #4 and SGT PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND #1 are two different stories, featuring George Pérez doing the pencils. SGT PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND, for some reason, was never published in the USA. I have never seen or have heard of the Sgt Pepper books, and I suspect they are quite rare.)

Here's some pixs from the Pittsburgh show sent to me by Mark Mcintosh, Mark is holding up a copy of the ultra rare Sgt Pepper Lonely Heart Club Band Comic Penciled by George.

Hey Vu! And the rest of the gang!
It's been sometime since I've had "free time" --or at least time enough to check out the site! Good Lord, it looks fantastic and kudos on a great job, man!!
I saw your note about the anniversary of the site opening and also saw a mention of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
Although I haven't put them up on the Gallery website yet (I AM working on updates at the moment!!), I thought I'd pass them onto you here first as a belated happy birthday present.
Here's the cover for the French HC edition
And a scan of the title page.
Cheers!

I have read from Andy Mangels's PEREZ ARCHIVES #1 that SGT PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND was possibly never published in the USA, although I have seen the original art (complete with English letterings) on Ebay and online, so I am pretty sure that there was an English version of this comic. It was suggested that the comic book was only released in Japan, but no one's ever produce proof of this either.
Anyway, thanks to melaka, he's posted all of the pages of SGT PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND on Bulledair.com's messageboard: attation, voila LA BÉDÉ DU SIECLE !!.
I have never seen the majority of the pages!
Since I cannot read French, could someone explain to me why the 1st page of the series is entitled: "SGT PEPPER'S THE BEEGEES"? This made absolutely no sense to me.
George Pérez drew himself (in 1978) on page 46:
I am pretty sure Jim Mooney and David Anthony Kraft is also tuckered in the panel, but I'm not sure what they look like.
