ABOUT

From legendary writer Grant Morrison and acclaimed artist Chaz Truog comes the character-defining epic that took Animal Man from standard superhero into the strange and bizarre!
Eisner Award-winning and New York Times bestselling writer Grant Morrison redefined DC’s Animal Man for an entire generation. The groundbreaking series follows Buddy Baker, the hero with animalistic powers wrestling between his life as a caped crusader and supporting animal rights. With the pressure of being both a father and “the world famous” Animal Man, Buddy Baker’s life is about to change in ways that could only be told through pen and paper.

It was the tale that not only rocked the world of comics but changed the way stories are told. The genre-bending tale from Grant Morrison, Chaz Truog, and inker Doug Hazlewood influenced a generation of creators and continues to inspire and captivate readers across the globe.

Read the story that broke down the barriers of storytelling in one stunning compendium!

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.
