This will be the first VEI release where we, who usually have every book, will struggle to fill our obligations to our customers. We did not do a pre-order on this set, due to things out of our control, and because of that, it won't be easy. I may have a couple of people unhappy with me. But I won't change my standard price. My customers who get all the variants, will get them for their standard, previously agreed price of $49.99

I think we might have a Shadowman #13 variant situation here.

I still don't have that book. Nor would I pay the going rate for it. Some of these books are just impossible to find.

So now that everyone knows this will be a hot Variant will it still be under 350?
This will flork some of you off but I just got an invoice from Impulse Creations for 34.99 I probably pre ordered the 1/50 I thought I didn't but what else could it be. So :P

The orders from Diamond have been finalized for 2 weeks. They won't change anymore, it's not like you can just order more and get more variants.

This book is going to be pricy on the back issue market.

Congrats! I don't think anyone here would be *SQUEE* off because you got a copy. I hope every fan who wants one is able to get one at a fair price. :clap:

I contacted Impulse Creations and they just told me it was for said copy. Do we know the exact numbers for this yet.
On another note after Dinesh's comment I contacted the shop I am getting renegade from and they said they ordered the variant and will see if it comes in so I may have another oportunity to get one. Whether I will or not is still to be seen. Probably not due to the Christmas BS and I don't mean Bloodshot.
If I bought a second copy I'd trade it for the black and white bloodshot Reborn that has low number.
I Miss the good old days.

Impulse Creations doesn't seem to have any listed...yet. Midtown and Graham Crackers don't have any listed yet either. I found a place online called Wade's Comic Madness that might be able to do a complete variant set, shipping included, for $99.99. The hunt is real...and fun.

I suspect the number is actually 300 on this Book. Of course (as is often the case) we won't know exactly; however, it makes sense that books would be printed blocks 350, 300, 250, etc.

I find it hard to imagine printing a random number like 347.

Jim shooter wrote the dark key comics for dark horse in I'm sure it's solar 1 or 2 Jim coined "Flork" as a way to say well you know. Some peeps thought it was stupid and some were OK with it. As that was my return to comics After years of the dark ages of our beloved charaters I try to use it where I can.

It might be fun to revisit a lot of 90's hip hop songs and change all the relevant words to flork. Sounds like something the Lonely Island could have some fun with.

As far as I know Impulse only does pre order for high number variants -30%. If you haven't pre ordered you won't get it and it won't be avaliable after the fact unless someone who pre ordered it didn't pay for it. Unfortunately Mine is paid for.

Midtown Comics site is erroring out, saying the server stopped responding which means (with my luck) that Savage was just listed and I can't even get on the site :!:

I just tried and it looks like they've sold out. I didn't get a copy. It was listed for $25.50. Flork again. Dreamland is out of them too.

Dang, looks like I missed my chance at Midtown! That was my only shot (that I know of). Anyone get multiples?
