I loved reading this! I collect variant covers too so I understand the interest for foil covers particular. Personally I love collecting foil covers in support of my favorite artists and for older facsimile editions that have never gotten one before. The only time I’ve ever disliked a foil cover was for Power Rangers Unlimited: The Coinless since the Goñi Montes variant only was in foil and not in the regular printed cover. Other than that, I think they’re worth it. But I do agree that black foil is especially difficult to see for foil.
I'm more of a non foil variant guy. While I do have some foils, I generally only get them if none of the non foils peak my interest.
They are a pain in the butt to scan at the register, but I love me some shiny lol
It could go either way for me, I’m more concerned with what’s inside. The story, the art, where the writer is going with it.
