How do you get the Variants?

Post by CallMeBloodshot »

How do people get the variants? I once got a pullbox valiant for X-O when I ordered issues to catch me up, but otherwise I have no idea how people get variants especially the rare ones. Midtown comics website I've found you can order them, is that how everyone gets them by paying those obscene prices?

Obscene prices? I think so. Every once-in-awhile, there's a bargain.

I tell my LCS that I want them, and he orders them ahead of time. Usually, I pay a bunch, but I don't miss any.

If I win an argument, it doesn't mean I'm right. It means I'm a better arguer.

In addition, I'm right.
