ABOUT

By turns riotous, tragic and brutal, DESOLATION JONES represents the acclaimed six-part serial, now presented in a deluxe hardcover that features an extensive gallery showcasing select pages in their raw form, just as they looked leaving J.H’s art table. Los Angeles is an open prison for broken spies. Michael Jones, once an agent for British intelligence before a procedure to make him a better operative left him mentally and physically shattered, survives in LA as a private investigator, eking out a living within the city's ghost community of damaged spooks. If he had any better future to look forward to, he probably wouldn't now be embarking on his newest job: locating the lost pornographic home movies of...Adolf Hitler. From WARREN ELLIS (TREES, Transmetropolitan, Castlevania) and J.H. WILLIAMS III (ECHOLANDS, The Sandman Overture, Batwoman), with JOSÉ VILLARRUBIA and TODD KLEIN.

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.
