    Buy at Cover Price

    That’s the Frank Cho 1:50 variant. 

    There was a time when they were released at the suggested retail price, and you just came across them randomly in with the rest of the same issue. Unfortunately now it seems the variant covers are all pulled upon release, and about grabbing extra money for them.   ? 

    BTW — Welcome to the Boards!!! :banana:

    Thanks.

    Buy at Cover Price

    I'm new to collecting comics, and I understand that old comics can be very expensive, but I notice some stores put their newly released comic books above the cover price. For example, the new Punisher is coming out today Aug 23, 2018. The price on the cover is $4.99, but some stores sell them at $50. Is there a place where I can buy newly released comic books at cover price? What is the point of putting the price on the cover, where no store sells them at that price? Thank You.
