    From the "A Word About This Issue" on the inside front cover: "This final issue of Promethea has several notable differences from previous ones. First off, a number of pages are upside down, we know. Secondly, the story is constructed so you can read it from front to back… or it can be 'unfolded' into a giant double-sided poster and read in a completely different order. Since this is a comic book that has been cut at the printer… you can't actually unfold the book but you can carefully pull it apart and… tape it all back together to form the poster. …"

Publisher’s description

In a series that pushed the boundaries of mainstream comics to the edge, this final issue goes a little bit further!. Alan Moore and J.H. Williams III deliver the most gloriously experimental issue of PROMETHEA yet, in which the reader takes an incredible trip through the magical cosmos with Promethea as a guide. This issue gives readers several options to read the book -- one of which is assembling its 32 pages into a giant double-sided poster. Once the poster has been assembled, the pages form two images (one on each side) that are only discernible as a complete entity.
