Marvel Comics repeated its Ken Lashley Battle Variant covers for The End 2099 #1 and #2, now wants to replace them
Article Summary
- Marvel accidentally repeated Ken Lashley's variant cover art for The End 2099 #1 and #2, causing confusion.
- Retailers received a misprinted battle variant cover on issue #2 and will get corrected copies soon.
- Marvel is allowing retailers to return the defective variants for credit and replacement editions.
- The End 2099 saga features epic multiversal battles with Spider-Man 2099, Nova 2099, and Red Hulk 2099.
Marvel and Penguin Random House have let comic book retailers know that The End 2099 #2 Ken Lashley Battle Variant cover was misprinted and a new corrected cover printing is scheduled to arrive to PRH next week. The original has been made returnable and retailers are encouraged to report defective copies for credit and replacement. And why? Well, this is the Ken Lashley Battle Variant cover that was solicited for The End 2099 #2…

…but this is the cover that retailers got… well, to be fair, it did say that the final cover may vary.

Which, as you can see, is rather similar to the Ken Lashley Battle Variant cover for issue 1.

Oopsie. I would note, however, that no one seems to have mentioned this on social media… I mean, not until right now, I mean.
