1988 - Excalibur Special Edition Alternate Cover

Here's the published cover:


And here's the alternative version. The only difference I see is the "The Sword Is Drawn" lettering. Also, the credits are in a different colour. And the inking in the alternate version seems darker.

    I bought that the day that it came out, and mine did not say The Sword Is Drawn. Was that other cover a second printing, or a true variant?

    Hey Kris, trying to figure that out myself! :) I found that variant cover in the TPB reprint.
