ABOUT

The second volume of The Witcher in a deluxe hardcover format chronicling Geralt’s wayward path in three standalone stories—from reunions with familiar faces to clashes with cunning new foes.
Geralt is summoned by an old acquaintance to help solve a mystery involving his daughter. Upon investigating, Geralt is surprised to find Dandelion, and the duo unexpectedly find themselves transported to regions beyond. Next, Geralt receives a request from the mayoress of Badreine, a small town where an unusual pack of foglets attacks children . . . but something feels off about this new threat. Then, flames rise as a witch is burned at the stake. Nightmares plague Geralt's sight as he sees the burned witch appear before him—bringing an ominous warning. And in a bonus story, a young nekker takes an unpredictable journey through the woods.
 
This oversized edition collects The Witcher: Of Flesh and Flame #1-#4, The Witcher: Fading Memories #1-#4, The Witcher: Witch’s Lament #1-#4, and the Free Comic Book Day 2021 short story The Witcher: Once Upon a Time in the Woods, and features a cover gallery, expanded sketchbook section, and more!

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.
