For the past few months, we’ve been doing posts about some Marvel comic books that will be releasing in September to help promote the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes video game. These comic books will have variant covers that will feature characters as their LEGO counterparts. If you know anything about comic books, you’ll know that variant covers are priced higher than their standard cover versions. These variant versions will be going 1 in every 25 which means that for every regular issue the retailer orders, one copy will be of the variant variety. BleedingCool is reporting there will also be sketch variant covers for the Marvel comics as well. These covers are even rarer and will be around the 1 in every 100 copies or more. For example, the X-Men #5 sketch variant is going for at least $80 so it’ll get a bit costly if you’re trying to collect every single comic. If you’re a hardcore collector, check with your local comic book stores to see if they will be carrying any of these variant covers next month. I’ve called a few of the shops here in San Diego and they’re not sure if there will be enough demand for the regular copies of the comics to warrant any variant copies but we’ll see.
