The Marvelous Box – Just Marvel Collections And Nothing Else, Every Quarter

Everyone seems to be doing a subscription box package these days. Loot Crate really created the business model for the geek community, but plenty have followed in its wake, Zbox, Comic Bento, Nerd Block, Marvel Collectors Corps, they keep on coming and some like Nerd Block and Loot Crate have diversified into offering several different themed blocks to choose from.

Some get official, exclusive products and variant covers and the like. But some, like the Marvelous Box, tackle a niche on the back of a brand, unofficially.

Because it's not tied in with Marvel at all. But it provides over a hundred dollars retail of Marvel collections for $25 each quarter.

Which is a score.

How do they do this? I suspect that it's thanks to Marvel's regular sales of backstock to retailers that they are taking advantage of, relying on at least one per quarter to stock up with. But they also have links with the DCBService online ordering company, who also deals with Image Comics's subscription sales.

Either way, for the Marvel zombie who likes to be surprised (but not too much), this could be quite the attractive offering.

Here's an unboxing…
