I will also say, it's ironic the new volume's A's don't match up, given the new fantastic four omni's, the images are at different heights too, so the icons/logos/volume numbers aren't aligned either. It's a bit less egregious than the A, but seems it's still keeping to a pattern somehow...even if the pattern is the lack of flowing consistency between the volume spines. 😅

Just for clarification since I couldn’t find the spot in this past weekend’s Saturday stream where you mentioned it: is it the standard or DM reprints whose A symbol spine pattern is still intact (as in correctly matching like the first printings of Vol. 1-2) across both volumes? Couldn’t remember which you said and haven’t yet tracked down anyone else with both printings.
