Variant Envy: Devolution #1 Blind Box Comics Variant
We mentioned the other night that Dynamite’s Devolution from Rick Remender sold out and is going back to a second printing. This is not something that happens a lot with Dynamite. However, with Rick Remender’s writing prowess, Dynamite might just have it’s first real secondary market hit.
I am also a big fan of Planet of the Apes, well the originals and the second remakes, not so much the Mark Wahlberg one though. Blind Box Comics has combined this hot new series with an homage to the classic Planet of the Apes Movies. Check them out.
