So, these are a pile of variants that I had picked up from my store when comics started to print again after the Pandemic started. I had some variants in my box that I just hadn’t picked up and when I started getting all the issues that were backed up from 3 months of no comics, I had to pretty much get everything. And since I was catching up on reading alllll those piles, I put this pile of variants aside to take photos of at a later date. So, here we are three years later and I finally got to it! Haha! I literally had no idea what was in this pile since I’d not looked through it for 5 ish years.

I certainly wasn’t going to go through every single issue here since that would be way too many photos, so I just took this main image and then others of the same display.

Though I was very happy to be reminded that I got 21 variant covers of that Fantastic Four 1 from 2018 (that bottom 3 rows). It’s definitely the most variants of one issue that I’ve ever gotten. So, I think I’m going to eventually try to get all the other variants of that issue that I can XD. There are like 50-70 more, so that could take a while. But I had totally forgotten that I had all those.

I’m very happy to have finally gotten to doing this. And on a similar note, I also finally went through a ton of variants from 2017/2018 ish that I’d had in organized piles in a closet for all this time. I sat down for 6 ish hours and sorted them into the various themes and sections that I’ve been organizing variants in for the past 6 months or more. I still have to put them all in the boxes that I’ve been using for the newer ones, and I need more of those boxes, but it very nice to have taken such leaps in organizing them all after this many years. I

t was very nice to see some of the first variants for all the artists whom I’ve been collecting variants of for all this time again after 5 or so years in piles. I also now have a sizable pile of issues I want to get slabbed. I know that will take years to get through since slabbing is pricey.
