ABOUT

When digital dreams turn into nightmares . . . Single and awkward, Thomas works as a boring accountant job for a seedy company that makes sex dolls in a gigantic, lonely megalopolis. Manipulated by his crooked boss and ridiculed by his colleagues, when his mother dies, his life turns upside down. Shaken by this tragedy and encouraged by his friend, he decides to test Live Memorium, an illegal technology that offers its users the ability to relive their childhood memories and act differently within them. Once inside the machine, Thomas can see his mother again and change the course of certain events that led to his deep trauma. He becomes more confidence in real life and reconnects with his childhood sweetheart, but in the process, loses touch with reality. It is the beginning of a self-destructive spiral, where the virtual world and the real world become one . . . A dystopian tale with a cyberpunk flavor, in the tradition of the great seinen sci-fi manga, this captivating story questions our relationship with technology and the solitude and emotional distress of our urbanized society. Halfway between Domu, Akira, and Black Mirror, Live Memorium tells a unique and dizzying tale, illustrated in elegant, Otomo-like lines.

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.
