    Someone that frequents our LCS called while I was there to say he got a signed copy. Unfortunately, I did not. Clearly this person and I are now Blood Enemies.
    I know Kevin Nichols through a guy that knows a gal. Small world!

    If nihilism didn't take some delight in destruction one might suspect nihilists were an unnaturally morbid sort.

    Don't worry, you can be friends. The OTHER rumor is that the ink used for the signatures evaporates when exposed to the air.. so the only collectible signed issues are the ones still sealed in the bag! Which ones are those? Only Hickman Knows!

    It's almost like the 'golden ticket' situation. A trip to the chocolate factory not included...but still, nice.

    You actually get a trip to Hickman's home. Unfortunately, it looks like Mel Gibson's apartment in Conspiracy Theory and you're not allowed to leave.

    And there's no chocolate.

    The next step in viral campaigning. Readers have to hunt Hickman down and torture him until he screams a number sequence. That code will then unlock a website that shows you which bags have the bombs -- oops, I mean signatures.

    I'm gonna guess there's four signed copies. Just, ya know, to be a bitch.

    i think it is a nice change to the usual variant cover and renumbering stunt. Ok, killing a superhero on the other hand, is of course nothing new.
