IDW Publishing exclusive comics

Beginning Fall 2021, IDW Publishing began offering exclusive comics made available for purchase at their online store. IDW previously published other exclusive comics and occasionally publishes retailer exclusive comics, but this page will start with the exclusive comics offered for sale in the IDW online store, and I'll add older exclusives as time goes by. Every month IDW releases pre-orders for a handful of exclusive limited edition variants, prints, and books. There will only be 1000 copies of any item, with most even more limited.
