I’m not sure if there’s a definitive cover gallery anywhere, but here’s a good chunk of them:

The back cover has small pics, but there are several pages of bigger thumbnails at the end of the book showing the covers

I’m grabbing my probably few copies at my LCS on Weds, so I haven’t seen any books yet. I really dislike the Night of the Living Dead books, so I’m glad to see those are more rare. Probably easier to get rid of then.

For context, when you say you ripped a ton how many is that? Like does it make this many lower ratio ones unlikely or did you really rip a lot?

All 7 of those covers were 1/140 bags based on the odds. So like 1000 bags ripped?

I think we should just all post what we got and see if anyone is interested in trading to get rid of duplicates.
I’d be interested in trading for gpk homages. And Chamber is Chills 19 homage.
I’ll be grabbing my two packs from the LCS tomorrow, I hope. Two more coming from MCS.

I bought more than I should have & am absolutely happy to swap duplicates. I’ll have most tomorrow. Only a few were ordered online.

I think we should have some fun with it.
One idea is to see if we can get sort of a chain going…how many trades can we string together using only one Gemini mailer. See how well travelled it can be.
Another idea is to play a form of Yankee swap…but you have to accept the boom you got and send a different cover to the next person.
Or a variation of the two, where we add a “secret” book that could be a cool book or a gag…then post what was received.
What other games can we play with all these worthless duplicates?

I have two ideas:
Record ourselves destroying the duplicates, thereby immediately increasing the value of the one copy we retain. Then create a web page tracking the decreased “printing count” for each cover ensuring that all know exactly how many copies are still in circulation.
Another option is to “create your own” variant with a duplicate copy and post them on a thread here on CHU. Most creative “variant” wins a “That’s Cool” from Anthony.
We can always make a “Badge” to assign to posts or comments…
I have noticed an uptick in searches on the main site for Mark Spears Monsters Blind Bags. People may not have gotten them and are now scrambling

If I get a cover I don’t want/lacks value and can be handled, I’m gonna read it, cuz it is a comic…ya know? It has a story too, everyone has forgotten!
At 350k…hard to walk down the street without having one hit you in the face…
