Ugh. Mars Attacks did that a few months ago, but at least they were honoring the original card set.

Supposedly DC will be doing fewer variant covers overall in the following months so that it "evens out."

And the 52 covers are supposed to represent the 50 states plus DC and Puerto Rico, but considering they're all the same except the state flags it seems a little gimmicky.

If you think that's bad, they're also offering a pack of all 52 plus the standard cover, for people who just have to have all of them.

Almost feels like they're surveying us the way the boys were in South Park in the ChinpokoMan episode. "Gay", "Hella Gay", "Liberace Gay."
