Mistakes caused by inattentiveness seem to be at the core of the latest Mail Call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting with this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#1C – Jo\u00eblle Jones Incentive Variant<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A few weeks back, after having heard good things about this book, I picked up the first issue. Except it wasn’t the first, it was the second. So, the next week I resolved to pick up the first issue, but they didn’t have any in stock at the shop. Thus, my mistake led to this portion of the Mail Call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(It’s a beautiful book, by the way. Consider the previous sentence a Short Box<\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, after seeing them on Comicsky (Comics Bluesky), I decided that I wanted these variants featuring Gracie the Cosplay Lass<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Heat Seeker: A Gun Honey Series<\/em>
#1 – Pack Exclusive Cover
#3 – Pack Virgin Cover<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Then, though I already had the trade dress version of the cosplay cover – I bought it at the shop because it was there; I’d planned to tradewait on the rest of it – I decided to get the other virgin cosplay cover for #1:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"

#1 – Pack Virgin Cover<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

However, I wasn’t paying attention to what I was buying and while I thought I was just ordering the one comic I ended up getting all four virgin covers – including two copies of #2 for some reason – so now I have duplicates of the Pack Exclusive Covers for #1 and #3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Heat Seeker: A Gun Honey Series<\/em>
#1 – Pack Exclusive Cover
#2 – Pack Exclusive Cover
#3 – Pack Virgin Cover
#4 – Pack Virgin Cover<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I really hadn’t been as keen on the covers for #2 and #4 as I was for the two covers for #1 and the cover for #3, so I hadn’t planned on picking them up, but I guess I can’t really complain, as it means I paid a lot less than I thought I did for the virgin cover of #1, it saves me from having to buy the trade like I was planning to, and who can be mad about having more Gracie?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, it seems like more stuff is always on the way, so come back soon for the next Mail Call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
