ABOUT
From genre-colliding production company SpectreVision and groundbreaking comic book publisher Oni Press, the startling five-part expedition into the dimly lit borderlands of human experience—where phenomena like UFOs, hauntings, cryptid sightings, and inexplicable synchronicities overlap and bleed through the very fabric of reality itself—continues as writer, producer, and real-life experiencer Daniel Noah teams with Eisner Award nominee Christopher Cantwell (The Flash, Out of Alcatraz) and rising star Valeria Burzo (EC's Epitaphs from the Abyss) to bring HIGH STRANGENESS to 1983 . . . On her 30th birthday, Cindy Freeman successfully tests her newly invented microcontroller Lifeboat—a device that can be plugged into any damaged system and repair its operating functions. After a freak accident on their way to celebratory drinks, she and her father walk away from a massive car crash surprisingly unscathed . . . but as Cindy navigates the days that follow, including the theft of Lifeboat, the sudden and suspicious lack of interest from the company that had been bent on acquiring it, and the uncanny deterioration of her father and the world around them, she becomes convinced they’re trapped inside some reality-bending danger . . . and mere pawns in a life-and-death game of corporate espionage. Presented in an extra-sized and ad-free prestige format with cardstock covers, each 40-page issue of HIGH STRANGENESS also includes a brand-new nonfiction special feature into the documented, real-life history behind each interlocking chapter.

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.
