I think RRP is more accurate in this case, as it was created for the retailer summit. Retailer incentive covers are an "incentive" for ordering a certain number of copies of a particular book. RRP = "Retailer Roundtable Promotion"...a comic book that is a gift for attending the retailer summit.
The thing I don't get though, CGC notes RRP right? This book just is noted as a Variant copy. That makes me wonder...
And 300 copies? Wow that is an incredibly low print run.
I'm going to be totally honest though, I don't see this book taking off like we think it will. The book is good, but it is no where near the level of Saga or WD. There is just too much speculation right now and I think it is hurting some of these modern books. I also don't think the cover has the eye appeal.
We will see, but even Saga has sort of maintained where it is on the market. I have a SS copy of number 1, and they aren't even moving on eBay anymore. I tried to sell it to my LCS in a trade and he wouldn't have it. He didn't think he'd move it as he said his sales of the book had slowed.
I also think the Sixth Gun debacle is going to hurt the modern speculators.
Time will tell, but we are barely three issues in to this series and people seem to be getting ahead of themselves.
I agree and I prefer Hickman's work on Manhattan Projects, much better book than East of West.
