DC Comics has revealed there’s a special perk for fans of the Flash if they purchase a DC3 of The Flash: The Fastest Man Alive #1: Access to The Flash: Enter the Multiverse. That’s a series of second drops featuring comics taking place on different Earths in the DC Multiverse. Anyone who receives a Common tier drop will feature a cover that is set in the Present Day. The uncommon tier will feature a Golden Age treatment, while Rare tier is Silver Age (60s-70s), Epic is Bronze Age (70s) and Legendary tier is Modern era.
“With monthly growth in number of users and sales on the marketplace, it has been great to see how much new and old fans alike are engaging with DC Collectible Comics,” said DC Senior Vice President and General Manager Anne DePies. “We are looking forward to building on the success and excitement from past DC3 releases with our most ambitious drop yet. Fans who purchase a DC3 of The Flash: The Fastest Man Alive will unlock the ability to travel through the DC Multiverse and can celebrate their fandom on different Earths.”
This new expansion is added to DC Comics’ collaboration with Palm NFT, which claims the NFTs are “environmentally sustainable and energy efficient.” They also claim they are better for the environment than conventional NFTs. That said, NFTs traditionally require an enormous amount of electricity and resources.
