Gerry Duggan and Mike Deodato Jr. are the creative team behind the upcoming Marvel event Infinity Wars. To celebrate, Marvel will partner with participating retail stores to host Infinity Wars launch parties. In addition to exclusive variant covers, participating retail stores will receive other promotional items. There may be competitions to win them and everything.

And while other websites may simply repeat the press release, Bleeding Cool will also tell you what retailers have to order to play along.

In the case of the Infinity Wars launch party promotions, they have to order 300% of their orders for Avengers #3 for Infinity Wars #1. If they do, they will also get a significant discount on the comics they have ordered.

All participating retailers will receive the following incentives as part of the INFINITY WARS #1 PARTY:

AVENGERS INFINITY WAR POSTER (BUNDLE OF 25) (MAY188995)

Retailers who choose to opt into the party will also be able to order the following items:

INFINITY WARS #1 PARTY VAR (JUN180795)
INFINITY WARS #1 (OF 6) DEODATO PREMIERE VAR (JUN180794)

Bleeding Cool has already shown you what the first of those looks like.

As for the Premiere variant, stores who order 300% of Avengers #3 and order them will get two copies sent to them directly.

Additional offers celebrating INFINITY WARS #1 are available to retailers and do not require a party opt-in to order. But Bleeding Cool will tell you what they do require…
