The Witcher: Blood Stone #3 – Cover A: Pius Bak
Geralt of Rivia’s hunt grows darker with every step. The Witcher: Blood Stone #3 continues the official licensed comic series from Dark Horse Comics set in CD Projekt Red’s acclaimed Witcher universe — delivering the morally complex storytelling, monster-hunting tension, and richly atmospheric world-building that fans of the games and Andrzej Sapkowski’s original novels have come to expect from the best Witcher fiction. Cover A features the exceptional artwork of Pius Bak — whose painterly, detail-rich style brings the grim, fog-drenched world of the Continent to life with a cinematic authority that makes every cover a standalone piece of art worthy of the franchise.
Whether you’ve been following the Blood Stone arc since issue #1, you’re a Pius Bak collector, or you’re a Witcher fan who wants to experience more of the Continent between game releases, issue #3 delivers exactly what makes this series essential reading for any devotee of the White Wolf.

🗡️ Fun Fact: The Witcher franchise began not as a video game but as a series of Polish fantasy short stories by Andrzej Sapkowski, first published in 1986 in the magazine Fantastyka — and went on to become one of the best-selling fantasy series in European literary history before CD Projekt Red’s 2007 game adaptation introduced Geralt to a global audience of millions.
CVR (Cover)CVR A: The Standard Edition. This is the primary artwork found in most retail shops.
CVR B (and beyond): The Variant Edition. "B" is the first alternative cover, followed by C, D, and so on. These are often produced in smaller quantities than Cover A.
VAR (Variant)Definition: Short for Variant.Purpose: A general label confirming the book is an alternative cover option rather than the standard retail edition. These are often used to showcase guest artists or celebrate special milestones.
CARD STOCK Material: A thicker, stiffer, and more premium paper (similar to a business card).Benefits: Highly durable and resistant to "spine ticks" (small structural cracks) or corner bending.
Standard covers use thin, glossy paper; Card Stock is the "deluxe" physical upgrade.
FOIL (Foil Variant)Effect: A special edition where parts (or all) of the cover are printed with metallic, reflective foil.
Visuals: Provides a shimmering, high-end look that catches the light. These are typically priced higher and sought after for their "shelf appeal."
Artist Name (Variant Credit)Context: Usually follows the "CVR" designation (e.g., CVR B - Jimenez).
Collectability: Many collectors buy books specifically for the cover artist. A "Store Variant" or "Ratio Variant" is often defined by the prestige of the artist involved.
