Edited to add:
Correction. The '80's (Venom) cover is hotter than the '60's cover. The Red cover does seem to still be outpacing all the other covers, though.

These seem to be gaining steam, especially the '70's (Red cover). That, and the '60's (Yellow cover) seem to be the most popular of the 5. I'm partial to the '60's cover myself.

At first I just picked up the yellow, red and blue ones but then I broke down and got the other two (plus the regular cover). With the Fan Expo one I picked up too it was a very expensive month for Spider-Man.

I think the 80's one is sharper than the rest. I like them all though. I have all except the expo cover. Waiting for the right price at the right time. I noticed on previewsworld that there is a 692 2nd print coming out in october. I also noticed the decades variants coming out again in october as well? Is this a typo or a 2nd print set? Anyone know what's up?

I picked up all the covers. Wasn't too impressed with the Marcos Martin ones. Really liked the Fan Expo cover!

I started with the Venom cover, then the next week I bought the Gwen Cover...
a week later I went ahead and bought the rest. I think im gonna do a custom frame job on the decade covers and hang em on the wall in the guest bedroom. |

I could be wrong but I believe they're being released as a complete set. I spoke to the owner at my LCS and he indicated he sold out of the decades variants he had but he ordered a couple complete sets. I'm assuming that's what they are referring to.

I thought that they were originally released as a complete set? In a thread prior to it's release, people were questioning why their lcs were breaking up the set and selling them individually. My lcs sold them as sets, as this is how they were ordered and how they were received. And if it is being offered again in Previews, which I am hoping that's not true or a mistake, Marvel saw how much in demand these are and how easy it is for them to make more money off them....

In that case, I am thinking the latter. First print re-orders for more $$$$. |

Yeah...so now instead of just having a 2nd printing of a comic, we have a 2nd printing of a pack of comics...
