    Well then this should be no surprise either :) 

    The last two variant covers were announced.

    Based on votes by retailers Marvel Knights Spider-Man #22 2nd Print will feature Peter Parker (final version not available yet) and... Amazing Spider-Man #528 2nd Print will have Spider-Ham

    There will also be a sketch version of the Spider-Ham variant in a 1/36 ratio.

    Well...I'm suddenly much less interested in getting all the variant covers then. I was kinda looking forward to having 12 relevant 'identical' covers...but that's just fucking stupid.

    Couldn't find the MK #20 Scarlet Spider cover anyway since it was sold out at my shop. I think I'll just quit while I'm ahead...or behind only $12, however you wanna look at it.

    I found something amusing today. When I went for my books, the MK Spidey variant sold out. Now everyone talks crap about Ben but man, this has been the only book to sell out of the variants. I smell liars and cheats among us.

    Anyone know if this will become a Trade paperback? I was at my only comic store and several issues were sold out. The guy there said that they probably won't restock them :(

    It's Marvel. I guarentee there will be a trade not long after the storyline is finished. Infact, it wouldn't surprise me to see the trade listed the same week, or the week after the storyline concludes.

    if you want originals, I can probably find them for you. A store by me has either the first or second prints of every issue thus far.
