24 Different Covers

All for three issues? Thats just silly. :roll:
Overboard yeah a little :P

-Brian
Dynamite Entertainment does the same thing. 11 copies for the first two issues (#0 and #1) of Battlestar Galactica. To make matters worse, they're just "phoning in" variants now the "sketch" cover for BSG #1 isn't a sketch at all, it's a black and white version of the cover. :roll:

k_c_collectibles wrote:Incentive books sould be cool! I think that send-away books could be done like John Taddeo did by entering codes from all the books needed to qualify for a free comic (plus shipping charges). That way you do not have to physically remove something from your comics to qualify for a send-away book.
I guess I didn't get into the books enough to catch this. I read the first two, but wasn't really paying much attention as they didn't do much for me. I nkow there was some sort of code, but never was interested enough to try and break it. How did the whole thing work?

I think making a game of the variants would be a great idea. Just like Zoom Suit, only the true fans would get in on the action. You'd have to actually read the books to get one.

Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try.

Sorry - I only knew 'em through All Star Squadron (A-SS).

Wouldn't Beck be the CC Beck rather than the Midnight Vulture variety?
