What Up CHU? Mel V. here with your Variant Picks for the week of 1/23/2019
Kinda slow week but I’m sure we can find some hidden gems.. Not like that X-Men Finch cover last week though.. man that took almost everyone by surprise, and It seems like its surviving both ‘Hater Waves’ and ‘Undercutter Waves.’ Also My sneaky pick, My Little Pony Nightmare Knights, seems to be an absolute ghost. Again, I know nothing about Pony books but I do know a good looking cover when I see it.
Lets see what going on this week
Blossoms 666 #1 Cover D Variant Robert Hack Cover – I have a lot of faith in this series, I think its gonna do very well long term ..buy what ever cover you like the most for me it’s the Hack cover

Midtown is showing a very different Cover D by Robert Hack for Blossoms 666. Which is the correct one?
Looks like Archie changed it up. The one we have up was the original solicitation. I was at the shop tonight and it is the one showing on midtown. Even some of the eBay presenters still have the other cover.
the cover that should be showing i the one with the SkuLL sTAIRCASE
I believe the Cheryl Blossom cover shown in Mels article is a store variant. Buyer beware.
And the Hack cover that is shown above, is a cover swipe of Cheryl Blossoms 1st appearance.
I’ve got a report of a first appearance in Friendly Neighborhood 2 as well. It was the first big 2 incentive to sell out this week on Midtown. Who knows!?
My Little Pony Nightmare Knights caught my eye last week and it just arrived today.What a great cover and rare

Mycomicshop had a few last week, too bad I only ordered one copy.
