Disclose Notes: This is the third printing with a red metallic ink cover. Other printings have different colour metallic ink covers.

The indicia actually states first printing, June 1992. However, this is undoubtedly the third printing, as can be determined by the numbers at the bottom of the indicia ending at "3". The cover price is also higher than both the first and second printings. So although the date in the indicia reads June 1992, it is highly unlikely that this is the actual date of this third printing and it would have been released at a later date.
