Martha Washington rare variants

From a recent acquisition...

...are the details of some rare Martha Washington goes to war variants.

You can use this reel if you want to see the comic I'm talking about



Basically Chaos City comics produced...
a). a sky blue edition of 500 copies (different cover, signed by Dave Gibbons plus a trading card) - this cost £7.95 in Summer 1994

b). a sunset red edition of 100 copies (different cover, signed by Dave Gibbons and 50% signed by Frank Miller) - this cost £14.95 in Summer 1994

I'm not clear if the sunset red version comes with a trading card. The trading card isn't mentioned in the ad for the comics so I didn't even know it came with the sky blue edition until I saw the (above) reel.

If you purchased either of the editions then you'd have been entered into a draw to win one of the ultra rare white editions. This was limited to just 10 copies! 

Good luck tracking any of these down!

When comic retailers go into publishing...

So, if you run a comic shop it's a pretty safe bet that you love comics, that you see a load of comics fans every day and you (perhaps inevitably) think "...I could produce stuff better than Marvel / DC / Image", so here are some comics where the shop owner thought they could outdo their esteemed rivals...
