  1. I put in an order for killbox A&B cover ( back when Mel mentioned them) so fingers cross I get them in my pull.

  2. Collectors are picky and may prefer a rarer variant. But more money spend on variant is less spend to boost price of regular comic. Years ago, that money would be spend on buying multiple copies of regular comic when no variant existed.
