• early humor
• fine-motor skills
• language skills through rhymes and wordplay
• movement and play
• a lifelong love of reading

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.
