Marvel Comics Cancels Living Vampire, Dark Marvel and Sneaker Variants

Marvel Comics has had a history of bumping up their sales with variant cover programmes, running themed variant covers across their line, in an attempt to increase interest and encourage collectability. Some, like the Venomized or the Deadpool covers have become major valuable collector editions in their own right. Most have not, but it all helps the bottom line. However, right now, with schedules up in the air, some books that are meant to have been coming out during such a programme are not. Or coming out in a different month. And the unified variant themes are no longer ask well, unified. So Marvel has announced to retailers that orders for the following covers have been cancelled, the Living Vampire, Dark Marvel and Sneaker variant programmes.
