In the database, there are two listed, both match up with Greg Horns website with the Marvel logo Box in the upper left hand corner and the cover signature just off of Gomora's right hip. There is a missing variant, which I am researching, and its pretty close to the same, except for the Marvel Logo and cover signature are on the opposite side.. On the bay, there several listed, a couple graded that show the same cover

Virgin cover:

Variant Cover:

Am I just missing something?

Those are subtle differences but they are different. Plus Den of the Damned vs. GregHorn.com

on the 'trade dress' version, I've seen 3 versions now. Most common on ebay at least (on closed auctions, and someone is selling 10 packs) seems to be with the marvel box and printed sig on the right side. then there's the marvel box and printed sig on the left, then marvel box on the right but printed sig on the left. what's the point of that?
someone can ask Greg Horn maybe.

It does seem strange to switch the signature from side to side and call it a new variant.

LOL I know, as I was approving missing variants, this is what I found, very confusing, and not real sure on what exactly we should do.

The covers are not identical. Gamora's hands are different, her belt is different, the Infinity gems in her hair and a few other things are different or unique to one or the other.

It's CLEAR that the virgin and trade dress in the 1st post are different, but it's the 3 non-virgin covers that I'm talking about, that I see no art differences in them other than the placement of Horn's printed signature, and the other diff is the placement of the Marvel box. seems pointless to me to call 1 an 'exclusive' based on just placement of those things.
