Corner Box Variants, UPC Logo Variants, DC Universe Variants, Newsstand Edition, Direct Edition ... what does it all mean? 
Do you know what all those boxes on the cover of a comic book mean? Do you know how to tell what is a "newsstand" comic book and what is a "Direct" comic book? We'll talk all about that and travel from the Golden Age all the way to the Modern Age.

*Please note: There have been countless iterations and subtle changes to the "trade dress" over the years, it' be impossible to include them all so this just covers the biggest of them and the times that changed their look the most!*
