LOL. Guess we’ll be seeing a lot less foil variants

Well, maybe lower print runs.
This actually may make them more sought after by the secondary market.
I don’t understand why they can’t just change the cover price like DC does for card stock books. Is it really that much work to make a slight graphical adjustment?
Technology is hard for marvel, apparently.

Marvel is screwing retailers

Marvel screwed up, most likely they had this great idea to start printing these foil covers of the facsimiles because DC was doing them and were selling quite well. Only problem was that the department responsible for telling the printers to print them out also forgot to tell the Graphics department to change the price on the trade dress.
Marvel telling retailers that “it costs more to print these foils and don’t want the readers to pay more” is a load of crock. Marvel has never had a problem with charging $5.99, $6.99 or even $9.99 for a comic in the past. They screwed up and instead of doing the right thing by honoring the price that they invoiced the retailers and eating the cost they are letting the retailers handle the fallout from the customers.
Not all customers keep up with the news and will have no idea why stores are charging a markup on new comic book release day when there’s a $3.99 price tag. Most will be understanding of course but Marvel is screwing the retailers here by making them look like the bad guys.

I would pay Netflix a bunch of money to stop making these live action anime. Death Note was trash and cowboy bebop were too and arguably the easiest series to do in live action. So far they’re 0-2. One piece from them is coming out and I have no faith they’d do the series justice with how over the top and whacky OP is
I enjoyed the Cowboy Bebop show, but in order to do so I had to ignore the source material somewhat. It might be one of the easiest to do in live action, but it’s also a really unique beast and duplicating that is very very hard. I liked it for what it was!
I’m gonna give her a try!
In the olden days I could never find Fruit Brute. I loved Fruit Brute
