ABOUT
You've seen her outrageous doodles take over your favorite magazine covers, and now you can take home a piece of Hattie Stewart's explosively creative world. Packed inside a chunky hardcover case are 50 postcards, each bearing signs of Hattie's signature sass--from her iconic heart-shaped characters and giant eyeballs to puffy, 70s-inspired fonts and floral smiley faces.
Why text when you can leave a love note on your kitchen counter or pop a "thank you" in the mail? With these irresistible postcards and stickers at your disposal, it's never been easier to say hello to grandpa or wish your bestie happy birthday with a vibrant card that feels unique.
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.
