Variant Envy: Enormous #11 Hoknes Variants
I have been really big fan of Enormous. It is one of the books that I think is so good that I have become a completest on it. Yup, I grab every cover and every variant (this is hard because of the NYCC variant from 2014 being so rare and expensive, but I have that too.) Anyway, HoknesUSA has two fantastic covers that are must pick ups for Enormous Fans. Continue reading “Variant Envy: Enormous #11 Hoknes Variants”
Variant Envy: Back to the Future Rhode Island Comic Con Variant
As a kid of the 80’s, it is no surprise that I am a Back to the Future fan. The movies just drew me in. I was very excited to see that the original creator was writing a new series. There were some cool variants that came out for the book, and one is the Ale Garza drawn Rhode Island Comic Con Variant. Continue reading “Variant Envy: Back to the Future Rhode Island Comic Con Variant”
Variant Envy: Carnage #1 Phantom Variant
Larry from Larry’s Comics has been putting out the Phantom Variants for a while now, they can be picked up in around 30 stores nation wide. He had released a series of Amazing Spiderman #300 homage variants that did well. He took a break from them but is still doing them on a limited basis, for only certain books. One that makes sense is Carnage #1. Continue reading “Variant Envy: Carnage #1 Phantom Variant”
Variant Envy: Dark Knight III Master Race #1
It would be an understatement to say there are going to be a ton of covers for Dark Knight III the Master Race #1. This is going to be a big book, both in size and sales. Expect this one to take the #1 slot for the month in both dollars and number of copies sold, unless Marvel pulls some trick to bump it into second place (they have done that before.) Anyway, our friends at ComicXposure.com ran a cover gallery showing off twenty-one of the covers. Continue reading “Variant Envy: Dark Knight III Master Race #1”
Variant Envy: Spider-Gwen #1 Dave Dorman Variant
The only Marvel book I am still reading is Spider-Gwen. I just love the concept, as well as suit design for Gwen. It also plays out well for the cosplay crowd. One of the covers I dug the most for the relaunched book was the Dave Dorman cover for M&M Comics. Continue reading “Variant Envy: Spider-Gwen #1 Dave Dorman Variant”
Variant Envy: Vader Down #1 WonderWorld Three Pack Variant
I know people are starting to get tired of the action figure variants, but this is really a cool one. It has been sent over to me by a couple of people and wanted to share (apparently Bleeding Cook also posted it). It is a new JTC design Action figure variant for Star Wars. Continue reading “Variant Envy: Vader Down #1 WonderWorld Three Pack Variant”
Variant Envy: Grumpy Cat #1 Third Eye Action Figure Variant
Ok, this one just cracks me up. Third Eye Comics is my local comic shop and they have some great variants. When Steve told me about this one I was unsure. The one I am talking about is the Grumpy Cat #1 Third Eye Action Figure Variant. Grumpy Cat, is the internet meme of the very unhappy cat that has ended up with millions of views. He is getting his own comic. Continue reading “Variant Envy: Grumpy Cat #1 Third Eye Action Figure Variant”
Variant Envy: Spread NYCC Variant
Kyle Strahm and Justin Jordan have been very good to me. They let me have first crack at showcasing the NYCC Spread #1 variant from last year. Well, they are doing it again. So they are giving the sneak peek to us first. Here is the NYCC Spread Variant preview for this year:

Variant Envy: Chew #1 Retailer Exclusive Board Game Edition
This one will be hard to find. Stores had to order 5 copies of the board game to get 1 copy.
Continue reading “Variant Envy: Chew #1 Retailer Exclusive Board Game Edition”
Variant Envy: Age of Ultron Vs Marvel Zombies #3 Francavilla Variant
I love Francavilla’s style. He fits the horror and noir genres perfectly. He will be providing the art for the Age of Ultron vs Marvel Zombies #3 variant cover. Just awesome! Continue reading “Variant Envy: Age of Ultron Vs Marvel Zombies #3 Francavilla Variant”
Variant Envy: GI Joe #217 Storm Shadow Action Figure Variant
Now that I have the Snake Eyes and Baroness covers, I must get the next one in the series. I haven’t been keen on many of the Marvel Action Figure covers as for the most part they haven’t been real ones, but these GI Joe ones make me nostalgic, and makes me wish the younger me would have not opened his toys and saved them for later. (I could have been rich I tell ya.) Continue reading “Variant Envy: GI Joe #217 Storm Shadow Action Figure Variant”
Variant Envy: Amazing Spider-man Renew Your Vows #5 Comicxposure Variant
Holy Cow. Here is a winner. Amazing Spider-Man Renew Your Vows #5 ComicXposure Variant.
The variants they have put out for this series have been incredible. This one features a Mike Deodato homage to the classic Brian Bolland Killing Joke cover.
Continue reading “Variant Envy: Amazing Spider-man Renew Your Vows #5 Comicxposure Variant”
Variant Envy: We Can Never Go Home Again and Young Terrorist Third Eye Variants
Normally I wouldn’t lump three comics together under a Variant Envy post but these are too good for me to pass up. Black Mask has been hitting homers lately, and using classic Punk Rock homage cover has me all in. Continue reading “Variant Envy: We Can Never Go Home Again and Young Terrorist Third Eye Variants”
Variant Envy: Archie #1 Dave Dorman and Chris Foreman Variants
DrunkWookie writes for comicsheatingup.net
This one should be an easy one. So far I have ordered 4 copies of both the Foreman and the Dorman variant covers to Archie #1 variant covers directly from MMComics. I originally ordered them because (1) The Foreman cover is another ASM 300 homage. Say what you will about whether this homage is played out, the Phantom variants for Deadpool 45, Ant-Man 5, Spider-Gwen 1, Silk 2 and 3 still fetch coin; (2) the Dorman cover is amazingly good! He has always been my favorite cover artist since Star Wars Dark Empire; and, finally,(3) the Dorman cover is limited to 1,750 copies! No word on the print run on the Foreman cover, but being a lesser-known artist, I imagine the print run is similar. Continue reading “Variant Envy: Archie #1 Dave Dorman and Chris Foreman Variants”
Variant Envy: Mad Max Fury Road Furiosa Blank Sketch Cover
Mad Max Fury Road Furiosa #1 Blank Variant. Long title for a book with no cover art.
We mentioned Mad Max Fury Road Furiosa #1 Blank Variant in our Picks of the Week post. But there may be more to it than originally thought. Continue reading “Variant Envy: Mad Max Fury Road Furiosa Blank Sketch Cover”
Variant Envy: Figment 2 Action Figure Variant
The Marvel (and other company) Action Figure Variants have been a huge success. Disney’s Figment was also a huge success, thanks in part to the many Disney fans.
Merge the two together and you are sure to have a highly desirable comic.
Continue reading “Variant Envy: Figment 2 Action Figure Variant”
Variant Envy: Star Wars Lando #1 Alex Maleev
Alex Maleev and Chares Soule have an exclusive variant for Star Wars Lando #1. They are selling them at conventions. You can pick these up anywhere Soule and Maleev are appearing. Continue reading “Variant Envy: Star Wars Lando #1 Alex Maleev”
Variant Envy: Carpe Noctem 2 Convention Exclusive
Looks like i will be at Awesomecon this weekend after all. I was given the opportunity to be on a panel/round table/group interview opportunity with Kevin Eastman, one of the creators of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Once I found out that I was one of 10 “reporters” (I know they still count me as media though) I was all in for the weekends convention. While I am there though, I will be picking up copies of the Carpe Noctem #2 Convention exclusive variant. Continue reading “Variant Envy: Carpe Noctem 2 Convention Exclusive”
Variant Envy: GI Joe #214 Virgin Art cover
We mentioned the GI Joe #214 variant a little while ago. Snake Eye’s has died and the book continues the story. Turns out there is an even more rare variant for GI Joe #214. Continue reading “Variant Envy: GI Joe #214 Virgin Art cover”
Variant Envy: GI Joe 215 Hall of Comics Action Figure Variant
A store variant done right, right off the bat. I got an email from Hall of Comics, they are launching their first variant cover, and they really hit a home run with this one. Continue reading “Variant Envy: GI Joe 215 Hall of Comics Action Figure Variant”
