Spacy Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Really would like to know the print run numbers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicalgems Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I suggest not buying them and sticking to just regular covers if you don't like variants. I don't collect every variant myself but this comicspro cover I actually like quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krighton Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 i'll bet 250-350 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExcludedTim Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 How is image getting money for these? This only hurts the collectors. If you don't know the answer, I don't need to explain it (exposure, hype, name recognition, readers, sales, market share, etc., etc., etc.) You realize that image only gets the money from initial sales right? After its been covered on their end it starts to line others pockets. Gaining readership is one thing but these "speculators and flippers" reap the majority of these benefits.

Makes folks like me want to put complete runs together or buy a t-shirt. Believe it or not every single sell a company makes creates potential for repeat biz. What every business owner wants.

ItsJustRyan Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 On the whole (Tim), I agree variants suck for collectors (we have to spend more money). However, creating something rare also creates demand. Demand creates interest. Interest generates readers. Readers generate sales. Sales cure all evils (while creating a whole batch of new ones).

fono-migration Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Epic Fail Image Comics ! Too Many Variants ! How many more #1 variants are coming down the pipeline ? #1 has been out a couple of months and still have variants popping up. Epic FAIL ! But if they get paid why do they care... Seems we can now call them little DC or little marvel gonna have a million covers. These are giveaways to a supportive retail community. There's really no correlation with variant programs that encourage retailers to take greater risks by inflating their orders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not worth wasting money on it, nor stressing out about having them all either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wushugushu Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 This has been my favorite series this year even though its only 3 issues in. I will try my best to collect all the variants for this series.. Which is something I dont do very often. So give me a shout if youve got any #1 variants!
