Cover Stories for FOC – Mike Mignola, David Rubin, Juan Doe and More…

Published Tue, 18 Jun 2019 09:30:34 -0500

FOC means Final Order Cut-Off, the last chance for retailers to increase or decrease their orders from Diamond Comic Distributors of certain items without penalty and with a reasonable chance they'll get what they ordered. It's also a chance for publishers to put out new variant covers just at the moment a retailer is considering whether to order more of a comic book title or not… here are a few for this week.

Mike Mignola's FOC cover for The Weatherman Vol 2 #2.

Tim Daniel and Nathan Gooden's homage cover for Sara And The Royal Seas #1 from Vault Comics, taking on Neal Adams.

David Rubin's FOC cover for Faithless #4.

Juan Doe's FOC cover for Firefly #8.

Roberto Castro's FOC covers for Elvira: Mistress Of The Dark #7, with 1:5 and 1:15 tiers.
