What is most interesting is the rising cost of the comic pack is almost making it MORE expensive than two single figures. Sure, you get a comic, but as the line grows we are getting fewer packs with TWO new figures. Thus, as in the case of the Silver Samurai, we got one new figure and comic ... and a repainted wolverine.

To the OP, I would hope that they discontinue this practice of putting comic pack figures on single cards because these are the figures that aren't selling. Very few folks are really excited about a new Ultron or Magneto or Dr. Doom, but they might have if they were significantly different. I get that they are trying to recoup their money on these molds, but haven't they done that already by reusing most of them many, many times? Sure, modern Thor isn't that re-usable, but Wolverine's mold has gotten a workout!

Most - but not all - of us would rather see new figures on the pegs. I have no problem with 3 packs/multipacks being re-releases as this is a great way for people to catch up (although I hate it when they throw in there a must-have figure). This is good for the line. I even don't mind revision waves. But just have a revision comic pack wave and keep them out of the singles!
