Variant Edition

About this original series

Variant Edition is a different way of looking at comics. Every Tuesday it's a quick dose of comic knowledge that will prepare you to step into your comic shop on Wednesday...from sneak peaks at what comics are being released to the latest headlines. Then later in the week, it's a half hour packed with comic culture. We've got news, reviews of comics and related toys and statues, convention coverage and interviews with both new and established creators. Variant Edition the discussion is our newest addition. About twice a month we pick a topic, sit down and talk comics. Variant Edition: Your source for comic book news, reviews and culture.
