I know I am not the only one who noticed, but both Doctor Aphra #9 and 10 40th anniversary covers show they are #26 out of 48. Clearly Doctor Aphra #9 has the wrong number on the cover and is meant to be #25 out of 48. These covers are ordered based on the scene they are depicting from the movie. The 24th anniversary cover on Star Wars #33 shows Luke Skywalker training with the remote aboard the Millennium Falcon en route to Alderaan. The variant cover for Doctor Aphra #9 shows the Millennium Falcon exiting the debris field left by the destruction of Alderaan; the Falcon is chasing the TIE Fighter heading toward the Death Star.
Star Wars: Doctor Aphra #9b - Marvel Comics, U.S. (July 2017) 40th Anniversary variant - 25/48
Doctor Aphra #10's variant cover shows Darth Vader and Stormtroopers flanking the Millennium Falcon in the Death Star landing bay.
Star Wars: Doctor Aphra #10b - Marvel Comics, U.S. (July 2017) 40th Anniversary variant - 26/48
Also in July, the Darth Maul #5 David Lopez variant was erroneously released using the same cover as the David Lopez variant for Darth Maul #3. Marvel did ship the correct cover months later. If Marvel is having problems keeping the variant covers straight, maybe it is a sign they are releasing too many of them? I know my wallet can use a break.
