During the speculator boom in the 1990s comic book market, publishers enhanced comic covers to increase sales. These gimmicks included shiny foil, holograms and even pop-ups! But, one of the coolest enhancements was the glow in the dark cover. Let’s shed some light on the subject, shall we?
Publisher: Image Comics
Cover Date: November 1999
The fourth and final issue of the first Aria series “spawned” a glow in the dark variant featuring Neil Gaiman’s Angela.
On Ebay: Aria
On AtomicAvenue: Aria
You should check out Venom: Enemy Within.
Easily my favorite glow in the dark cover.
