TRESE VOL 01-06 BOX SET

When the sun sets in the city of Manila, don't you dare make a wrong turn and end up in that dimly lit side of the metro, where blood-sucking aswang run the most-wanted kidnapping rings, where gigantic kapre are the kingpins of crime, and magical engkantos slip through the cracks and steal your most precious possessions. When crime takes a turn for the weird, the police call Alexandra Trese. The Trese Volume 1-6 Box Set contains the first 6 volumes of the bestselling, critically acclaimed Filipino horror series, collected into an attractive box set compilation, and includes a folded bonus poster, featuring original box/poster designs by series artist Kajo Baldisimo. Each volume in the series features updated/remastered artwork, as well as extra material, including Alexandra's journal entries chronicling her creature encounters and more.

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.
