As promised, there are more variants.

Fire & Ice: Welcome to Smallville
#1D – Kevin Maguire Variant
#1E – Amanda Conner Incentive Variant

I honestly didn’t enjoy this issue that much, and yet I now have multiple copies of it. Still, I could hardly resist the nostalgic impact of that Maguire cover, and who doesn’t love a good Amanda Conner cover?

I should note that this is another comic featured in a Mail Call that garnered a less-than positive response from Casually Comics.



And speaking of Casually Comics, the cash grab continues to grab my cash with the purchase of these two covers.

G’nort’s Illustrated Swimsuit Edition
#1G – Tiago Da Silva Exclusive Variant
#1H – Tiago Da Silva Exclusive Virgin Variant

I have to admit that there’s actually another variant of this issue that I’m tempted to buy – well, two, really, as there’s a virgin variant – but I have yet to find it at a price I’m willing to pay.

I did at least get a different centerfold pin-up. (They both had the same one, but it’s different from the other two pin-ups I have.)

Still, I wouldn’t be terribly surprised if you see it making an appearance in a future Mail Call.
