ABOUT

From the throne of Denmark, the callous and aging King Sweyn covets the rich fields of England, and worries that his son, Canute, may never be man enough to wear the crown... The violent and complex action epic that inspired the hit anime returns, in premium, 3-in-1, collector’s hardcovers!

Includes volumes 4-6 of the Japanese edition of Vinland Saga and new bonus content.
Askeladd has embarked on the greatest gamble of his career, playing off the brave but thick Thorkell the Tall against the king’s own guard in an attempt to ""rescue"" the youngest prince, and pocket a handsome reward. Yet a grueling march past the ruins of empires, with winter closing in, tests the loyalty of Askeladd's band, and the true loyalties of Askeladd himself may lie not with the Vikings of the present but with a legendary king of the bygone past...

This premium, hardcover edition presents the acclaimed action epic in hardcover, at a bigger size than ever before (7 by 10 inches), wrapped in a red leather-patterned cover with logo stamping. This new edition features all the content of the original release, plus new and exclusive bonus illustrations, interviews, and behind-the-scenes details never before translated.

Includes volumes 4-6 of the Japanese edition of Vinland Saga and the following bonus content:
  • Exclusive color art and bonus comic by Faith Erin Hicks (The Last of Us: American Dreams)
  • Creator Makoto Yukimura opens up about the pivotal moments of the story
  • Faux leather covers featuring a historical Latin inscription
  • Larger size than ever before
  • Maps, concept art, and behind-the-scenes details

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.
