When IDW recently began their Godzilla franchise with "Godzilla, Kingdom of Monsters", they started it with a bang by creating more than 100 variant covers for the first issue.
To be fair most of these "variant" covers were simply the same image, Godzilla stomping down on a comic book store, with the name of the comic book store changed to the retailer selling this comic. ****See side example****
IDW has now decided to collect all of these variants into one giant edition, utilizing all proceeds obtained from sales towards the ongoing tsunami relief in Japan (particularly the International Medical Corps).
IDW didn't have to do this but they did, which can definitely be marked as a positive note towards the organization. It's always great to see comic book companies utilizing their power towards creating a positive impact within the community.
If anyone is interested in getting this comic you can find the link for several online comic book retailers on the side of this blog, which can help take you to it.
