ABOUT
Tell me, if a dream could make all your wishes come true, would you remain asleep?
Anzu is settling back into regular life after her adventure in the spirit world of Yomi. But fitting in—really belonging in her new friend group—is a lot harder than battling vengeful mythical monsters. Luckily her best friend, Fig, is always looking out for her, even if it makes Anzu feel like a burden.
Then a wild-eyed beast known as the Dream Eater crashes through the walls between worlds to steal her friends’ souls, with Anzu only able to watch helplessly. In her rush to capture it, Anzu is transported to Yoru-no-Osukuni, the Realm of Night. There, she’s reunited with her old friend Limbo the Gatekeeper, who has troubles of his own. The Dream Eater, it seems, has been wreaking havoc in more worlds than one.
Together they venture to the ruins of the Nightingale Palace in the hopes of finding the missing Moon Sovereign. Expecting rubble, they instead find a flourishing castle with a leader who’s more interested in their own selfish desires than helping others. And an unexpected familiar face that leaves Anzu questioning if the waking world is really worth saving when you can have anything you wish for in your dreams . . .

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.
