I understand the "completist" mentality, but if you feel like you need all 45 covers, you may want to seek professional help :kidaround:
I agree. Not variants.

I just want the ValiantFans and the Valiant Podcast one. Maybe the Midtown one too because I order from them every now and then.

I need 2 copies of each at least - one to submit to CGC and one to keep as reader copy. :P

Seriously, there's a VFans 2014 edition? Awesome - how can I get one, Greg? I looked at the link to the covers but it is glitchy on my phone, I can't seem to see the entire list...

Philippines, Portugal...just a couple of formerly-Spanish-conquered countries that begin with a P. What's the difference?

Just kidding, Tug. :P

I've got a connection at Stadium Comics in Brampton, ON. Looks like I might be able to score a copy of their FCBD issue through him.

Still not gonna chase any of the others, I just want to have the VFans edition.

What a fantastic way to celebrate Free Comic Book Day. Take those free comics and sell them for $4 a pop.
