Good news! LOTUS LAND #2 is up for Final Order Cut off (last opportunity to pre-order) on Monday Nov 27 and since LOTUS LAND #1 sold out, there’s a second printing coming which you can order now as well. But the reprint is a small print run so if you want it, get on it because it’ll sell out as well.
Regardless of whether you got on board earlier with the first print or if you’re looking to catch up, you should get in touch with your local comic shop this weekend and order one or both of these releases, particularly if you’re interested in coming along for the monthly ride. And I highly encourage you to do that. The monthly releases on a mystery series includes a level of anticipation you just don’t get otherwise.
Okay - so here’s the good stuff…
First up is this incredible new cover for the LOTUS LAND #1 reprint, by series co-creator / artist Caio Filipe. Not only is this cover conceptually brilliant, it also gives you some insight into the gorgeous art you’ll be experiencing inside the book. I’m a huge fan of interior artists doing their own covers so for that reason alone I was ecstatic to see this happen. And pretty darn pleased that the first issue sold out, creating the opportunity for it to exist.
And below we have the main cover for LOTUS LAND #2 by Alex Eckman-Lawn.
No one does work like Alex and his contribution to LOTUS LAND is so crucially representative of the story we’re telling. Here’s how Alex describes his own work and you’ll see what I mean because he could very well be describing much of what we’re exploring in LOTUS LAND.
“My work explores the fear and mystery associated with my body's inner process.”
And last but far from least are the two variant covers for LOTUS LAND #2.

Print copies of LOTUS LAND #2 will be available in comic shops December 20, 2023. It is available for pre-order at your local comic shop. Digital copies can be purchased from content providers, including comiXology, iBooks, Google Play, and Kindle.
More soon! - DVP xo
Great stuff
