Spera: Volume I is finally, truly, actually, officially in stores today. If your local comic shop or bookstore doesn’t have a copy, they should be able to order one in. If you don’t have a comic store near you, you can order a copy from most online retailers.

Above you can check out the front cover (which has some tasteful gold foil in person!) and a page from Emily Carroll’s chapter.

buy this immediately and then read it immediately.

No, but really. I got my Amazon-ordered Spera book two days after Christmas, and I read the entire thing in one sitting. I’ve been following the story since its wee early days as a webcomic. Having it in book format, with so many beautiful renditions of Pira, Lono, and Yonder is absolute magic.
