Flipside drop details!

Hey everyone! As promised, it's time for the final exclusive drop for Absolute Batman #21 featuring the Two-face Flipside variant. This book will feature a matte finished cardstock cover with silver spot foiled poker chips across the cover. 

As mentioned previously, this will only be made available to people that purchased one or both of the previous #21 variants as well as all Brigade members. Even if you didn't purchase either of the first two, as a Brigade member, you get access to the hidden store!

HOW IT WILL WORK-

At 12PM noon EST you will receive an email from markbrooksartteam@gmail.com with a link to the secret store. We have already loaded the store up and tested everything so it's good to go. It's very important that you go into your email and add markbrooksartteam@gmail.com to your contact list. This will help avoid the email being delayed as well as stop it from landing in your spam folder. We recommend you go into your Brigade account and double check the email you listed to make sure it's correct. We will be emailing everyone at the same time so everyone has the same shot at acquiring a book. That said, we have no control over how quickly your email provider will send you the email. The majority of people will receive the email instantaneously but there's always a few that say they never got it or it arrived late.  We unfortunately have no control over that since it's an issue with your provider and not our site or email account. We recommend due diligence to make sure you are receiving emails properly and timely.

There is no discount code for this drop. The Brigade benefit for this drop is access to the store even if you didn't order the first 2 variants. 

ONE ITEM PER ORDER!

We have instituted a one item per order system in hopes of avoiding bots and resellers. That said, there will only be 500 issues available. With over 1400 orders and a few hundred Brigade members, this means that there will most likely be some people that miss out. We are doing our level best to make this as fair and easy so everyone gets a fair shot.  There won't be any throttling of amounts or timed releases, all 500 books will hit the store at the same time. 

PLEASE DO NOT SHARE THE STORE LINK! This is a special sale only for previous #21 buyers and Brigade members. Because of this, we will be cross referencing all orders for the Flipside variant with the email list. Any order made by someone who wasn't a buyer of the earlier #21 and/or isn't an active Brigade member will see their order promptly cancelled with no opportunity to buy again. You do not have to be both a previous #21 buyer and a Brigade member to order! As long as you are at least one or the other, you qualify. 

SECOND CHANCE!

If you miss out tomorrow on the drop, don't worry. ComicSketchArt will be hosting a Whatnot Live on Friday June the 19th at 2:00pm EST with Scott Snyder and I where we will release the remaining 350 issues to the general public. Bookmark this link and come back for your second chance as well as a lively discussion with Scott about all things Absolute Batman as well as a few surprises and giveaways!  WHATNOT LIVE LINK

WHAT'S AVAILABLE

4 different options to choose from:

-Cardstock spot foil double signed by Mark Brooks and Scott Snyder-$85
-Cardstock spot foil double signed and remarked- $155
-Cardstock spot foil double signed and CGCed-$175
-Cardstock spot foil double signed Mystery Item(s) bundle- $135


And yes, you read that right. The Mystery Item will include 2 items and be different than the Mystery Item from the original #21 drop! So, if you got the mystery item from the first listing, this will be something different.

ORDER CANCELATIONS-

We are allowing a 24 hour cancellation window after the drop ends. If you find you need to cancel your order you will need to let us know at markbrooksartteam@gmail.com by 12pm noon EST June 5th. After that time, all orders will be considered locked in. 

SHIPPING TIMES-
This book does not release until the middle of June. At the Whatnot Live event on June 19th, all books for the first two variants plus the Flipside variant will be signed by Scott and I. As listed previously, shipping is guaranteed 6-8 weeks from the release date. We typically get your books out far ahead of the 6-8 week window but please allow that time before inquiring about the status of your order. 

CGC ORDERS-

CGC orders can take an additional 8-12 weeks. Unfortunately we have no control over orders sent to CGC for grading but do our best to get the books to them quickly and promptly ship them off to you as soon as they are returned by CGC. Please await the listed expected timeline before inquiring about status of your order. 

Thank you all again for participating in my blog and for all the support you give to me and the MarkBrooksArt team! We truly couldn't do any of this without you and hope to keep bringing you more cool stuff!

See you on the flipside!

-Mark

No email with a link was ever sent to me, and I specifically joined the Brooks Brigade for this drop after missing all the others. Anyone actually get an email?

Bj Schaeffer

So sorry for the way some of us acted over this including myself, Mark and team face a very challenging situation, when dropping such a high demanded product, thank you for all your hard work, sorry the drop didn’t start as planned… but in the end most people were happy, cant always make everyone happy congrats on a sell out!

My suggestion would be to reschedule for maybe 5pm EST and send the link out in advance so we have it ready. This is going to be an issue if the email doesn’t go out to everyone.
