Make way for the next variant du jour

Think we can forget about the Wolverine 20: 1 in 65, long enough to talk about this one?

 

Identity Crisis 1 RRP sketch

 

 

The only thing that differentiates it from the 2nd print sketch cover is the blurb on the bottom right corner on the front cover. Raws are already reaching $200 and Allcomix and Liquid Adamantium are armed with slabbed copies from 9.4 - 9.8 from $300 - $1000!!! :shocked: Slabbed onsite at Baltimore? Don't think so... maybe another con after? ANyway, I see plenty of folks getting screwed when the 2nd print comes out and ebay auctions for this RRP with postage stamp size scans proliferate...

 

Happy bidding and don't get scammed!

I've seen three in person. $3-400 raw It's really pretty lame as far as these things go with just the same old sketch cover.

picture transferring that blurb in the lower right corner on the variant "somehow" onto the lower right corner of the second prints...

I really don't see the whole fuss of the RRP issues at all . I will , however, buy the 2nd sketch print (when does it come out?). I would like to see more sketch prints come out of certain issues as long as they are not RRP, too $$$.

For example:

Avengers #500

Ultimate Elektra #1

JLA #100

GL #176

Superman #209

My fav is Superman/Batman #8 . How do the companies decide which ones are reprinted into a sketch cover?

Hello All,

Been Lurking too long, thought I would start contributing.

While I am sure there are some retailers on these boards, I don't see too many posting, (ducks)

here is what Diamond sent us

"Following the sell-out of its Identity Crisis #1, DC Comics has announced it is going back to press on the issue for a 2nd Printing (shown), which will feature an alternate version of Michael Turner's cover for that issue, and it’s available for advance reorder"
