I was wondering the same thing. He mentions that it will have a similar ratio as the QR Voice Variant which was 1:50

So going by the current sales numbers + a boost from this promotion ...

Maybe 47, 48 and 49 will get 8,000 print run each?

#50 should get an even bigger boost --- maybe gets to 12k?

so that means the potential of 700-750 unique peices of original artwork that can be found between issue 47-50 ..? Does that sound right ..or is that crazy? :o :hm: :?
Will be approximately twice as many as that
That's cool! I originally figured that the original art was just going to be the 50 originals of the art being used for the prints.
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.

:o 1,500 pieces?

How many are original and how many are photocopied? :?

Rico
There are no photocopies. All the original art pieces are...original art. The rest are micro-prints featuring 50 different X-O Manowars.
So assuming there'll be a total of 50k copies to be printed for issues #47-50 and 1.5k of these will be bagged with one of the pieces of original art, then the remaining 48.5k copies will be bagged with (a copy of) one of the 50 different micro prints ... at approx. same odds. ?

I am taking an extra long lunch to hit up my local. They told me they ordered extra, knowing I would want to buy a few more than just my pull request.

I can't wait to see what people pull, it's going to be fun!

I assume you mean 0 for 7 with original art? Wasn't it estimated that it would be about 1 out of every 30 or so?

Went to two local stores yesterday, 1st store 0 copies, 2nd store 3 copies, so I picked up all three.

No art, three prints: Diego Bernard twice and a CAFU.

A little disappointed that out of three I already got a duplicate facepalm

The saddest thing
We have three shops in my town they are on one rd on the same block. My shop is mainly a magic card shop the shop next to him was an *SQUEE* squee to me when I wanted to do free views called it a scam.
It's a scam to give away free comics.
The next shop is the biggest they actually own three shops on the island. One copy of xo47 made it to all three shop. Not one xo on the shelf and no bloodshot at the big shop.

Hmm.....

Think I just might visit my LCS today after work. I know I left them with 5 on the shelf with the promise that I would buy whatever is left before the next on came out. Wondering if all 5 disappeared already. Cool thing is I made a deal with her regarding variants. she purchases 10, I get the variant, and I buy whatever is left over. Might have to push her to order 20 if the five on the shelf have already gone

I ordered 10 copies from DCBS, and I got 4 doubles. Anyone interested in trading? I have two extra Sean Chens, one Rafer Roberts, and one Juan José Ryp. I'd be up for trading for any other mini prints I don't have.

Sadly I didn't score any original art either. I ordered 10 of each issue though, so anything is possible in the coming months. :)

Is anyone keeping a tally of the various micro-prints pics and artists?

Curious if there's a [building] inventory of the 50 somewhere. I'd be up on trading people out to build a full set.
