ABOUT
Follow along in this trilogy of stories as readers are introduced to the duo and how they became mutants in the Villains: Micro-Series one-shot and then go on to Destroy Everything and Hit the Road!
Bebop and Rocksteady are feeling dejected and without purpose after their defeat to the Turtles. However, when they stumble across a time-travel scepter, they realize that their craziest, most destructive adventure awaits! Will the universe survive or will they Destroy Everything?
Then, B&R are on a road trip back to NYC, but can they make it before they become completely human again? As their journey across America begins, Bebop and Rocksteady run into an old enemy who’s bent on derailing their trip before it can even begin. Plus, the duo are forced to do the unimaginable: get real jobs! Throw in appearances by time-traveling menace Savanti Romero, the army, and ultimately a brand-new unbeatable foe that stands in their way, and you’ve got all the action you’d expect as they Hit the Road!
This special collection will also feature two new pages of content connecting the series as well as a gallery of character designs, story development pages, and cover art! Dustin Weaver and Ben Bates are joined by additional artists Sophie Campbell, Giannis Milonogiannis, Damien Couceiro, Ryan Browne, Benjamin Tiesma, Pablo Tunica, Tadd Galusha, Aaron Conley, and Nick Pitarra.
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.
