ABOUT

Travel to Japan with Brandt in this touching graphic novel about love, loss, and how the past never truly stays dead.

Seeking refuge from an unhappy life, Brandt returns to his ancestral home in Japan to find a haunted tree and the departed souls that are drawn to it, including his Grandfather. Getting more involved with the tree's inhabitants he attempts to heal some of history's wounds but will he be able to find any measure of peace for himself when someone special from his past returns?

Ghost Tree is a quiet story full of reflection and how one deals with the emotions of life, the past, and family. It deftly weaves elements of the supernatural into the narrative but ultimately this is a story about people and relationships, how the past informs the present, and how one cannot run away from one's problems.

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.
