How do Pre-Orders work?

We take orders for some products that have yet to ship (or are restocking) from the manufacturer to allow you to reserve them. Prepaid pre-orders may only be canceled by the customer within 14 days of placing your order and will be subjected to restocking fees. All pre-orders are subject to cancelation due to product changes or allocations made by the manufacturer. Refunds will be issued if we are forced to allocate or cancel your order.  Please note that the release dates we provide for all pre-orders are very tentative and subject to change. We attempt to keep our product description pages up to date, but we are not responsible for changes made to the product by the manufacturer prior to release. Prepaid pre-orders are typically shipped within 48 hours after we receive the product (see Shipping Policy). Please be aware that all our published release dates are estimates and it is possible we will not receive a product until after the manufacturers published street date.
Pre-order

He's back. Amp Comics is proud to bring the bumbling superhero from the hit '80s TV show to a comic shop near you. The Greatest American Hero has returned to reconnect with his son, who only knows him as the "crazy man in red pajamas." Seven days. One suit. A final sacrifice. The Greatest American Hero gets the ending he deserved.

This scarce promotional copy of Greatest American Hero #1 Ashcan Edition—published by Arcana Studio—has been professionally evaluated, authenticated, graded, and encapsulated under the joint CGC x JSA (Certified Guaranty Company & James Spence Authentication) certification program.

  • Scarce TV Cult Classic Revival Ashcan: Produced as a limited promotional ashcan comic to launch the comic book continuation of the beloved 1980s cult classic television series The Greatest American Hero. Published by Arcana Studio in collaboration with original show star William Katt, this ashcan issue features art and conceptual work that revived Ralph Hinkley’s suit-wearing superhero adventures for modern comic readers.

  • Triple Gold Pen Signatures (JSA Authenticated): Features striking, high-contrast gold ink hand signatures from three key creators:

    • William Katt: Star of the original TV series (Ralph Hinkley) and co-writer/creator of the comic series.

    • David Mack: Acclaimed comic artist and writer (Kabuki, Daredevil), who provided high-profile cover art for the project.

    • Don Handfield: Producer, writer, and co-creator on the comic reboot.

    All three signatures have been cross-verified and authenticated by JSA's autograph experts under the official CGC x JSA partnership label.

  • What a 9.6 Means: A CGC grade of 9.6 Near Mint+ represents a near-flawless, ultra-high-grade collectible. The book displays outstanding eye appeal with bright colors, sharp corners, full cover gloss, and tight structural integrity, exhibiting only the most minor manufacturing or handling imperfection allowable in top-tier CGC grading.

  • Dual-Guaranteed Authenticity: Combines CGC's state-of-the-art comic grading with JSA's gold-standard signature authentication, offering total certainty regarding both the physical condition of the comic and the authenticity of all three gold pen signatures.

  • Permanent Preservation: Encapsulated in CGC’s archival-quality, tamper-evident plastic shell ("slab"), this heavy-duty casing shields the comic stock and metallic gold signatures from dust, moisture, UV degradation, and handling wear—ensuring its high-grade status and unique TV pop-culture history remain preserved indefinitely.
