ABOUT
When a young woman named Grace tracks her estranged father to a run-down houseboat in the Florida Keys, she expects disappointment, resentment, maybe even closure. Instead, the entire world ends.
Now stranded in the aftermath of the invasion that shattered civilization, she and her sick, aging father cling to survival on the open water—the only space safe from the creatures who attack at the sound of a single breath. But his oxygen is running low, supplies are disappearing quickly, and the deadly predators circling the shoreline are learning fast.
And on top of it all, a hurricane is coming.
A tense, new emotional story begins within the world of the acclaimed A Quiet Place franchise. Declan Shalvey (Moon Knight, Wolverine, Terminator) and Luke Sparrow (Terminator) ask: What would you do when stuck between the choice of sudden death or rising tides?
STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS
Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.
In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.
The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
