These can be sold, given as samples to readers, used as reading copies instore, or cut up and turned into bloody papier mache if you so wish…
About a decade ago, Marvel Comics turned to using overships as a way to promote their comic books, something that was criticised as the time by some in the way that it devalued comic books. Though maybe not as much as DC's preferred solution at the time, making comics returnable, if the retailer stripped the cover off and returned just that…
It may also be that some comic shops may be a little tired of Marvel and vampires and recall the previous attempt at an event with the X-Men and the Vampire Narion back in 2010, that originated with marketing and fought with editorial for a bit, leaving Jubilee as a vampire. So if any store did skip this one, at least its a chance for them to catch up.
