ABOUT

The Epic Collection of 80s sci-fi icon Rom's classic adventures continues!
Rom’s solemn quest to eradicate the Dire Wraiths from Earth brings him face-to-face with more of Marvel’s greatest heroes! A journey to Namor’s underwater realm leads Rom to an epic battle with monsters of the deep! Shang-Chi lends his deadly hands to thwart the Wraiths’ black magic! Rom joins Doctor Strange in a mind-bending confrontation with the Living Tribunal! And as the Wraiths unleash their latest attack, the deadly Firefall might just be too hot to handle — even for Rom and the ever-lovin’, blue-eyed Thing! Meanwhile, Rom is about to learn that when it comes to Dire Wraiths, the female of the species is deadlier than the male — and the impending arrival of the dreaded Dweller on the Threshold may spell doom for all! 

COLLECTING: Rom (1979) 34-47, Rom Annual (1982) 2, Marvel Two-in-One (1974) 99

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.
