    Is there a way to find which titles and issues have backups? I know about Batman and Justice League getting backups, but I'm confused by other titles. Unless I'm mistaken G.I. Combat has 32 pages plus a backup while Sword of Sorcery will be 40 pages plus a backup both for $4. Red Hood had a backup in issues 10 and 11, but stayed at $3. Are there other titles like this that have had an occasional backup but stayed the same price?

    any book at $4 has a back up.

    Additionally, some books at $3 may get an occasional back up.

    Justice League, Action Comics and Batman all have consistent back ups. All of which are very good I might add. But like sethy said, any book at $4 will most likely have a back up.

    Justice League 1-5 didn't have backups, but were still $4 so it's not perfect. I'm mostly looking for the inconsistent backups that aren't raising the price.

    What do you mean by backup? Is it an Annual?

    The Shazam story in Justice League, or the Robins story in the Batman zero issue.
