"The Boys Bloody Blind Bags contains three separate limited-edition variants of some of the key issues of the series with unique variant covers drawn at random from a range of art exclusive to this offering. Packed with a thrilling triple threat of comics that on their own would all be grail pieces for anyone's collection. These bags also celebrate the 20th anniversary of The Boys, complementing a new printing run on the omnibus volumes for retailers and readers hitting stores in April. This blood-splattered (not literally!) blind bag showcases great collectibles that could include some of the following:"

  •    The Boys #1 – first appearances of Billy Butcher, Wee Hughie, and A-Train
  •  The Boys #2 – first appearances of Frenchie, The Female, and Mother's Milk
  •    The Boys #3 – first appearances of Homelander, Starlight, Black Noir, and Queen Maeve
  •    The Boys #4 – first appearance of The Deep, full team appearance of The Seven, and Teenage Kix
  •    The Boys #7 – first Dynamite issue, first appearances of Stormfront, The Legend, and more
  •    The Boys #52 – first appearance of Soldier Boy
  •    The Boys #65 – epic death of Homelander, and origin of Black Noir

It was the moment that Invincible Universe: Battle Beast from Skybound/Image Comics topped the chart and got 400,000 orders that cemented it. Everyone else was going to do blind bag variant covers as well. DC Comics with the upcoming Batman #1 with foil variants. The Mark Spears' Monsters prequel from KeenspotTitan Comics with Heatseeker Exposed with infinite variety. And Dynamite with Die!namite #1 and Vampirella #8. Though it is a dangerous game, get it wrong like Vault did with Post Malone's Big Rig and people will burn them and post it on TikTok.
