Iron man 17 was on MCS for about 2 seconds.
Didn’t even make it to checkout.
Strange Academy 16 followed shortly…expecting HRA 13 to not last too long either.
Moon knight 6 2nd print didn’t show up. I looked on Collector Cave last night and they had 99 copies. Just a moment ago they had 3. So i grabbed them.
I may see the books above tomorrow, but doubt I’ll see a MK6 2nd in my area.
Just a quick question about Iron Man #17 Sway variant.
I’m new to FOC ordering, actually getting my first order this week.
With this particular book, was there a lot of buzz about it pre FOC date?
I don’t think so. Not until allocation was mentioned due to problems at the printer.
art wasn’t even available when I did my FOC order – a lot of times you just have to order with your gut based on the artist. I follow spec closely and still miss a lot of things. It’s no surprise that the local mom and pop shops just stick with A covers for the shelves and don’t risk getting stuck with dead inventory. But they also miss out on hot books.

The Art was released after FOC so no buzz until the art showed up.

But was there even buzz after that? Before allocation was mentioned? I don’t recall the cover even being mentioned until t he big A word was thrown out.

There was some chatter about that Iron Man book, and while there are never guarantees, anything RiRi related seems to generate hype eventually. It simply takes a mild bit of hype to get the snowball rolling after the fact. There was really no reason for shops to order many copies of an unpopular title, B cover, sight unseen.
We talked about it here once the cover was revealed. There was interest. I added to my pull list.

Dont pass on the Photon/Captain Marvel Sway also. Not talked about much, but if she pops up in the movies down the road, this cover could be a long term hold. Also, the art isn’t too shabby.

Pretty much all the Sway Black History Month covers are a must grab.

Yeah, they’ll likely end up like the Hip Hop variants.

I sold two of the Sway Miles covers for $70 total, not bad for $3.99 each before discount and taxes.
