Two Days until San Diego Comic-Con 2024 kicks off, with lots of creators and publishers putting their best foot forward and selling a lot of exclusive and exclusively covered comic books, just for the occasion.

Parody comic book Do You Pooh #1 by Marat Mychaels may hold the record for the most variant covers of any comic book. It is possible that the latest may cause a greater stir than others. He states "You wanted it…you got it! SDCC exclusive…it will be available at the show and on all my live sales streams." He has some others as well…
