I am an avid collector of signed J. Scott Campbell Covers which I purchase from his online store. Unfortunately I can never find them here. For example Wonder Woman #750 where he released 4 issues but none are here. Or Amazing Mary Jane #1 same thing.

Does anybody know why?

For regular issues and variants sent through Diamond Distribution we know what's coming out. We add between 6 - 8000 books per month to the site.

For artist exclusives and store exclusives we rely on members to tell us about them, since there isn't a record of their release. (Report missing variant button) As you go through the lists of exclusive variants there are about 700 different stores and artists who have exclusives. There's not enough time for us to look at all 700 options each month to see if they released something.

to give frank666 some more info--to report a missing variant, save a GOOD cropped-to-the-edges pic/scan with no watermark to your computer/phone first. then go to the issue's listing on here, click on the Variants tab, click on the red 'Report Missing Variant' button in lower right after the other covers (must be logged in), and fill in the info boxes as best you can, and upload the pic from your computer/phone, and they'll get to it when they get to it. As Ron noted, there's no way CPG has the time to monitor the hundreds of store and artist sites to keep on top of the ridiculous amount of exclusive variant covers, so it's up to the membership to submit them or report them on the forum, and attached pics or links to pics REALLY HELP (for future people reading this).

All of my Campbell are in CGC slabs and signed. And this version is the only one I can get

Are any of the Campbell issues still on his website? If yes and they're not watermarked, that may be a resource for you.

I entered my first missing variant. I used the pic from below, which I got from his website.

I see his site has LOTS of his exclusive covers, so assume you can find all yours there. BUT, I forgot to mention, and so did Ron, that CPG does not list values for SIGNED comics. So if any of Campbell's exclusives were ONLY signed editions, they won't list them here.

I saw some that weren't watermarked, but the 1 Frank has is, so found a pic with no watermark. again, google searches are useful...
if CPG wants to see/use all the variant covers for WW 750, Bleeding Cool has them here:
https://bleedingcool.com/comics/all-36-retailer-variant-covers-for-wonder-woman-750/

Mary Jane #1 covers: https://bleedingcool.com/comics/marvel-demonstrates-commitment-to-mary-jane-series-with-24-variants/

that'll be tree-fiddy for the work.

Brilliant. A hug thanks for all the help.

I have now added my two Wonder Woman #750 variants.

Would I be informed if a cover has not been accepted?

Frank, I am sure there are a lot of requestssd's in the queue so it may take a wee mile.

I submitted covers months ago and they are just starting to as appear.
