Best of all, if you are a comics retailer, you can have your own exclusive variant cover made for ARCHIE’S T.V. LAUGH OUT #79:
We’re back with another terrifyingly funny opportunity to take a huge bite out of potential sales. We mean, REALLY sink your teeth into it. We all know people love to laugh. Oddly enough, they also love to be scared. The best laughs come AFTER being scared. Here’ a chance to create an exclusive cover that plays off of and pays homage to one of the most iconic movie images of all time. Don’t restrict yourself to just JAWS. It can incorporate any of the sequels, other shark movies, or images from Shark Week, for that matter.
As a matter of fact, and this goes for any variant you choose to do, you do NOT need to confine yourself to theme of the issue itself. You can create any theme for your variant based on any number of factors. Holiday, season, store specific, and so many more ideas are fair game, pending approval by our diligent production department.
Let’s create something amazing together for your fans!
