Since Magnus9178's ticket came from California, you're in NYC and Valiant's in NYC, I think that makes you Charlie. They're going to give you the company at the end of the tour!
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.

And from what I've seen so far this is the cover associated with the articles about the Unity Golden Ticket contest!

Now there's only 3 left in the wild.
I guess I checked the stacks of the wrong Forbidden Planet (I looked when I was in London).
And I was debating whether to rifles through their copies (or not) a few weeks back when we met for the FCBD books.

I hope not. I'd probably run them out of business.

Super-awesome! :clap:

So... does that mean the two known tickets came from stores that had custom versions of UNITY #1?

As far as I know Forbidden Planet doesn't have a Unity cover.

I think stores with their own variants are just more likely to have gotten one due to the large amount of books they ordered.
