DRUG WOLF #1

Drug Wolf becomes Drug Wolf! In an attempt to cross the Unknown Dream Dimension, and because he’s sad that his cat Trigger passed away, a young man eats a handful of random pills from the bottom of his drawer and proceeds to wander the streets of Burlington, Vermont. Following a random cat, he finds a wolf mask and puffy winter coat in the trash and becomes our titular hero. Luckily, Drug Wolf gets different super powers depending on what drugs he consumes, otherwise what are we even doing here? That’s why this is a comic book. After entertaining literally hundreds of thousands of children (with his beloved Johnny Boo, Banana Fox, and Green Eggs & Ham graphic novels) Eisner award winning cartoonist James Kochalka makes his triumphant return to adult comics with this blistering hot new series.

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.
