By providing a retailer with "exclusive" variant cover art, DC Comics agrees not to provide the exact same art to any other retailer for use on a retailer variant cover. However, DC reserves the right to use the applicable art in any other manner, including, without limitation, on merchandise, in prints, and in its own publications as supplementary content. Furthermore, DC may provide other retailers with variations of such art for use on variant covers, including differently coloured or black-and-white versions of the art or art with different backgrounds.
