If Liefeld cared about his fan base, heād learn to draw better and stop putting out total shit artwork. Nuff said!

Hit up both comic shops in the local town this morning.
Main one had no copies of Midnight left an hour after opening. They placed a much larger order than usual and still shifted them all.
4 people asked for it whilst I was in the shop.
2nd comic shop had about 10 copies of cover A left for each title. All the variants had gone. They said they had already sold loads in the first couple of hours.
Midnight seems to be a hit in the UK (at least initially)
All the copies I saw seemed fine as well - I had no problem picking out nice 9.8ish ones for myself.

I got a cool looking matte foil SIKTC blind bag cover, but I have no idea who did it ow what cover it is. Is there a gallery of covers out yet anywhere?
Also, the foils do weigh a little more than the standards.

Regular and foil.
Also pulled a foil and b/w dellāedera last night in the other two bags.
Still havenāt seen a cover list anywhere.

They are $14.99 each right?
yes, not cheap, but they are packed with Erica Slaughterās ārookie cardā
I grabbed a copy of Midnight booksā¦was able to snag what I think are 9.8 copies. Thereās a little āscuffā near the top and/or bottom of the front coverā¦looks like a manufacturing defect as it was consistent from n all copies. Barely noticeable.
I asked about the comics the magazineā¦and my shop says it doesnāt order itā¦oh well.

Hit my two LCBS this afternoon and scored the following:
Beneath the Trees Halloween Special (1:25 variant) $15.00
Something is Killing the Children #50 (1:25 variant) $12.00
Midnight X-men #1 (1:100 Ito virgin variant) $45.00
Freddie the Fix #1 $7.99
Extremity #8 DWJ for $3.99
Did not buy any SIKTC blind bags. $15.00 is a bit pricey to be gambling on in my opinion.
There were a ton of folks in the stores today and everyone that I saw had copies of the Midnight Universe series.
Good hunting everyone.

Wow. Check out this cover my buddy pulled. Again, I have no idea whatās what, but this is a spot foil cover and itās absolutely stunning.
Itās really irritating that Boom didnāt add a covers guide to the issues back pages.

Yeah, thatās nice. Remember that cover from the list of blind bag covers that Boom put out, donāt think I saw the spot foil version.
Good luck getting that out of the convention without any dings. The last NYCC I went to, so crowded, could probably start grabbing random asses and no one would know who it wasā¦ (please donāt grab others asses without permission though).

The bumping and grabbing doesnāt bother me on the basic floor. But some vendors have rows of long boxes that you have to turn sideways to get through. And if someone needs to get by you, you have to exit the entire row to let them past.
Iām so out on Marvel, but love horror. Vampire X-Men sounded boring, and Iām just kinda tired of Spidey. So, I grabbed my least favorite Marvel group, Midnight FF. I liked the idea of a Galactus Cthulhu. And, I have to say, it was pretty good. They flew through the plot of issue 1 way too quickly, but I get it. Iāll grab issue 2.

Went to the LCS for the first time in awhile. Picked up (6) comics:
(4) SiKtC #50 blind bags
(1) 1:10 Frison SiKtC #50 variant
(1) Exquisite Corpses: Fox Mask Killer polybag edition
In the blind bags, I got 3 foils and one regular variant:
- Frank Miller foil - meh
- Asrar non-foil - solid cover
- Jamie McKelvie foil - solid cover
- Gigi Cavenago foil - great cover!
In other words, $60 + tax for 4 blind bags = who the hell knows value wise but Iām keeping the Cavenago.
I will complain about one other thing - why in the hell are the Dungeon Crawler Carl #0 reprints $9.99 cover price? I almost picked up the Abs Batman homage 2nd print but didnāt because I couldnāt justify the cost. Now, as I type this, I canāt justify $14.99 blind bags either

At the whatnot store you can pay $30 for a DCC blind bag
with meh coversā¦
I think the foil cover takes away from the depth of the Legos. It looks like you could set bricks on it and theyād stay.
This will be a hot book this week.
