"subscibers get both copies for the price of one."

But for that post, I would also have used sweary words.

Variant covers are the work of the devil.
What next? Foil embossing, holograms, f*cking huge crossovers? (Oh, hang on. They did crossovers. Grrr.)

I'm sure I'll love these covers, but I'm nervous about Rebellion using such an obvious ploy.

As a fairly informed person working (in a very small way) in a publishing industry, I'd like to point out that GIMMICKS DO NOT WORK.

Any increased sales will be temporary. The only way to change sales figures permanently is to change the product or invest in marketing.

>I think the plan is for subscribers to get both covers, rather than 2 full comics

so does that mean youll have to have three copies of the comic for a full collection? The subscriber copy and the two newsstand copies?

"wouldn't it just be better to use cover B as a back cover picture?"


a double sided front/back cover would give everyone both great images, and give Tharg a weeks holiday from his Input page!?

Still...
