Captain Marvel: Braver & Mightier #1 with an exclusive variant cover designed by artist Ryan Brown

The comics world is in a frenzy over all things Captain Marvel leading up to the release of the new big budget Hollywood movie releasing March 8, 2019. Comics starring the heroine are flying off store shelves and being dug out of long boxes, but fans and collectors can sit in the comfort of their own home and still snag an exclusive variant cover for the first issue of the new Captain Marvel: Braver and Mightier by simply ordering a copy (or two) on eBay. While the regular one-shot comic is available in stores, the exclusive Ryan Brown cover is only offered via the MyComicShop eBay store.

Priced at $5.99 with free shipping, the comic isn’t the first exclusive variant cover from MyComicShop. No, they’ve previously offered up limited variants for Black Panther: The Sound and the Fury #1 and Avengers #1 (2018) to rabid fans. Just like previous variants, Captain Marvel: Braver and Mightier #1 is predicted to sell out quickly. (The press release claims it will be available only on eBay starting February 27th at 8AM PT, but as of 8PM ET on February 26th it is already on sale.)

Comic books are big business, and eBay is noticing a rise in popularity with a 30% sales increase over last year. Whether due to the popularity of comic-themed movies, more diversity in comics, or the appeal of comics as an investment, it’s good to see the reach of comics increase. While it’s fun to pick up the latest comics in the brick-and-mortar store, it’s exciting to see online retailers like eBay offering exclusives and ease-of-access to add some variety to the hobby.
