ABOUT

The Original Road Kill Cookbook is an outrageous, devastating response to the call of the open road. It is the ingenious solution sought by the free-spirited American who wants to participate in Mother Nature’s bounty.
 
It doesn’t matter if you drive an off-road 4 x 4 or a delicate, aging Plymouth—Road Kill will help you by telling you where to find this highway supermarket, what to do while there, and how to fix your yellowline yummies.

“With this book, no gaps in game cookery remain unfilled.”Sports Afield

“I look at deer crossings in a whole new (head) light.”—D, Penfold, Road Warrior 

“. . . the perfect put-on to leave in plain sight the next time serious foodies stop by to check out your culinary skills.”Playboy

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.
