Will open it later tonight and post anything cool. There was no Alien packs in the box. It did have Iron Man and Eternals that I do recall. Some of those older Venom packs had 2nd prints of King Thor 1 (Gorr the God Butcher cover) back in the day, but I can't remember if it was the purple title Venom 25 packs or the white title... happy hunting!

I’ve got 5 near me and only two carry them. 🤷♂️ I have 6 within 30 mins of me and all of them carry comics. I just happened to be doing a return and saw the unopened new 7 pack on the CS counter. They were pretty cool and just said "oh yeah we haven't put them out yet but yeah I will open it for you." Then proceeded to tell me there was no limit, so I could have bought them all. I ended up buying the 2 Venom packs only and left the rest, I was not interested in any of the other showing packs. Maybe I will go back tomorrow and buy the rest. Pretty sure there is no ratiogate with these but rumor is there is some pretty nice 2nd printings in some of the older packs. I did not get any of those but I am happy with what I did get. Think this was the best pull out of both packs - icp004, WolverineX, STORMSHADOW_80 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nines Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 (edited) Ive bought four of them, not at the same time. 2 showing Venom 25's, 1 ASM 33 Walmart variant, the other was Black Knight/Curse of the Ebony Blade 1. A couple of them had a thick book in there which turned out to be a Black Bolt one-shot. Some neat stuff but nothing crazy. Secret Wars #1 1:25. Original Sin #2&3 both 1:10's. Black Widow #2 Adam Hughes. ASM 801 second print. Lenticular covers of Despicable Deadpool, Avengers, and She Hulk.

Jemin Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 My wife walked into our local store as they were putting the "new" 7 packs out, so she bought the whole box for me. I haven't really looked at them yet but I'm sure there are duplicates so they will be going back. WolverineX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One with Eternals showing, which ended up being a duplicate of one of the Venom 25s just reversed literally comic for comic it was the same. And one showing Tony Stark Iron Man. Like before nothing I would write home about but I am also not upset with the price point. Anything that came up as cover price in CLZ I am going to just make coffee table fodder.

Mr. Spider-Woman Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 My local store had a full box of these. I flipped through looking for any Fantastic Four comics but didn't see any so I left them all. WolverineX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimik Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 The key with the 3 packs is to look for the white spines. Those are usually 1:50 ASM 55 2nd to 1:100/1:200/1:500 and the odd 1:1000 (I landed an Immortal Hulk 1:1000 in one pack). Happy hunting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Well, not sure, but I'm thinking a search of "super Walmart" with your location turned on, but maybe adding "near me" would help. Although I've heard they are all at super Walmarts but even then only "some" super Walmarts hahaha. It might only narrow your search a hair but worth a shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xela_v Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Ooh. I've actually checked the super Walmarts around here but they don't carry comics. The sad thing of being in the west coast really ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Champions 22 2nd print seems to be the best of it...asking prices are higher for the ratio variant and all realized prices except a recent outlier favor the spectacular 300 as well.
