This was one of the first four comics released by Bongo Comics, each of which included one of four parts

precariously over a vat of bubbling silver ink, using a special foil cover. The special editions costs $2.25
(vs. $1.95 for the other versions below) and doesn't have a bar code on the cover.
This was also reprinted in the limited edition
