Hey - it's just a fancy way of saying it has a different/special cover. :)

thank you.

Was not sure. Seen variant covers before but never a book market variant.

It also has the price listed as 0.00 and says not for resale on it.

Right, which probably means it is a variant only given to shops. Just a guess. Maybe someone can verify that.

Usually these are promotional variant cover version that are given out to either book stores or at trade shows like Book Expo America. But it may vary from publisher to publisher.
