It got real bad when the "enhanced" covers had their prices increased but the page count remained the same. If you're going to charge $4.00 (this is back when most comics cost $1.25) for a comic at least add more pages.

There was a sleepwalker comic that had a cut out mask as the front cover. Yeah that's gonna be good for future value

We've also had "Death Of The Family" with the Joker mask over the title character I do rather like that the price isn't effected by these masks - whereas in the 1990's it'd be a considerable markup in price. (FYI, $3.99 is the normal price of BATMAN, as it has extra pages in every issue. I've got the BATGIRL issue and that's the regular $2.99...)

I hate the multiple cover concept. And that people buy them! I think my favorite gimmick was the foil embossed as a kid, I just hated that they used to slap them on random issues just to ramp up the price. See the Action Comics issue witht he embossed cover featuring the debut of Cauldron (who?)
