ABOUT
Right now may be a hard time. But this moment is not the whole story.
Whether you’re facing something difficult yourself or supporting someone who is, these words are here to help. They’re meant to carry you through today and guide you toward tomorrow—to be lived with, held onto, and returned to until you begin to believe them.
Through striking typography and bold visual design, Read This Till You Believe It offers simple, powerful affirmations to revisit again and again, until their truth begins to take hold. Each message is a reminder that you are still yourself—complex, resilient, and capable of moving forward.
With statements of support and empathy that speak to many kinds of challenges—from setbacks and breakups to illness, loss, and grief—this book is a meaningful way to show someone they’re not alone, and that brighter chapters still lie ahead.
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.
