New Comics For Wednesday 7th of August

August, you sneak! Out of nowhere, it's the first shipment of the month filled with hopes and dreams...will yours be fulfilled this week?
Let's hope!

In the pages of Venom and Web of Venom, Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman have been slowly, but surely, redefining the life of not just Eddie Brock and the Venom symbiote, but also the killer Carnage.
After a year of excellent comics, it all pays dividends as the Marvel Universe is painted red in ABSOLUTE CARNAGE #1 (OF 4) AC, where anyone and everyone who has ever worn a symbiote is on Carnage's radar. Who will survive, and who will fall prey? It all begins here!

Marvel heroes new and old band together to protect the cross-Asian portal city of Pan in AGENTS OF ATLAS #1 (OF 5), a new miniseries from Greg Pak and Carlo Pagulayan. Amadeus Cho, Silk, Shang-Chi, Wave, Jimmy Woo and more unite as the latest iteration of the Agents of Atlas combine their specialties in the science and magic of superheroics to combat a deadly foe the combines the two. But the original agents haven't been forgotten, as Namora, M-11, Gorilla Man and Marvel Boy embark on a new, top-secret mission.

When Reed, Sue, Franklin and Valeria Richards returned from the unexplored depths of the Marvel Multiverse, their think tank comprised of some of the most brilliant young minds on Earth, the Future Foundation, remained. Now, see what those intelligent youngsters have been getting up to in FUTURE FOUNDATION #1, from Jeremy Whitley and Will Robson, as they try to find the pieces to put their friend Owen Reece, the Molecule Man, back together.

Jonathan Hickman continues his X-mentastic hot streak as he returns with Pepe Larraz for HOUSE OF X #2 (OF 6). After two stellar debut issues, the most important month in mutant history continues to unfold before our eyes, and learn the truth behind one of the X-Men's closes allies. Plus, how will the governments of the world react to Professor X's offer for unique, life-changing medicines in return for recognition of the sovereignty of Krakoa?
And due to overwhelming last minute additions we have already sold out of this issue!

Back in the early 80s, a fan named Randy Schueller sent into Marvel a story idea that would see Peter Parker switch from his red and blue duds into a black costume. While that story never occurred, the idea was bought and symbiote suit was born in the pages of Secret Wars. To celebrate Marvel's 80th anniversary, Spider-Man creative legends Peter David and Rick Leonardi reunite to tell Schueller's original story in the pages of SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN SELF-IMPROVEMENT #1. If that wasn't already awesome enough, you'll also be treated to a story from Tom DeFalco and Ron Frenz, the pair who were the first to tell regular Spidey stories featuring the black suit.

The technological zombie, Anti-Life equation, virus continues to spread across the DC Universe in Tom Taylor and Trevor Hairsine's DCEASED #4 (OF 6). With Superman leaving his family on top of the Daily Planet building while he tries to find answers, the site has become a place of hope for many. From the average Joe to some of the surviving superheroes, they'll need to band together as a war for Metropolis begins to brew between the infected and those who are, for now, free of contamination.

After turning up the heat on those in power in the previous issue, famed journalist Lois Lane continues to write the truth in LOIS LANE #2 (OF 12), from Greg Rucka and Mike Perkins. But even she keeps some secrets, so what is the one that is so big, she's hiding from the most powerful being  on Earth, her own husband, Superman? While the conspiracy she's investigating expands around the globe, she begins working with a new ally from Gotham City, but who is this mysterious cohort? You'll need to pick up the issue to find out.

Lex Luthor has moved beyond the limits of humanity to become Perpetua's Apex Predator, to drive the world towards Doom, an action that caused great forces to react. To combat these gods, Luthor has sent Sinestro to combat them in SINESTRO YEAR OF THE VILLAIN #1, from Mark Russell and Brandon Peterson. With the power of the ultraviolet spectrum, Sinestro thinks it will be a breeze, but these forces may pack more of a punch than he was expecting. Will Doom prevail, or shall Justice claim the day?

Superman's search for a kidnapped girl in the far reaching expanses of the galaxy continues in Tom King and Andy Kubert's SUPERMAN UP IN THE SKY #2 (OF 6). As he looks for her, she tells her captors the story of Superman racing the Fastest Man Alive, the Flash, while Superman must reconcile the feelings his human and Kryptonian sides have when the hope of finding the girls starts to dim.

A sword-and-shield wielding warrior is about to find himself out of his depth when a wormhole transfers him from his time in the past to our modern day in BERSERKER UNBOUND #1 (OF 4), from Jeff Lemire and Mike Deodato. In the modern day marvel of a metropolis he finds himself in, the warrior will have to protect everyone living within it from an evil wizard that has a vendetta against him.

Sitting in the middle of a bad neighbourhood, the Winslow House is a dilapidated mess, but many unfortunates call it home. Those residents are beset upon by various criminals in the area, but luckily for the innocents, they have someone looking out for them: the Death-Defying Devil. But when the eponymous hero himself ends up inside the house, he'll be at the mercy of those he helps in DEATH-DEFYING DEVIL #1, from Gail Simone and Walter Geovani.

The classic novel from HG Wells gets new life breathed into it from Ted Adams and Gabriel Rodriguez with  HG WELLS THE ISLAND OF DR MOREAU #1 (OF 2). Unlike previous adaptations, Adams and Rodriguez introduces a new protagonist, Ellen Pendrick, who provides new insights and opinions on the story that makes us ask the question: just because we can do something, should we?

With an unstoppable killer hot on her trail, Izzy Tyburn has accepted that the world doesn't want her in it. But, in return, Izzy isn't going to leave anything of herself for the world in COFFIN BOUND #1, from Dan Watters and Dani. Retreading the tracks of her life, Izzy is replacing her previous presence with nothing but burned rubber, ash and the sun-scorched bones of anyone who tries to stop her.

The sensational, smash-hit comic from Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans is back for a new story arc, beginning in DIE #6. Our heroes are trying to escape their table-top role playing game, but there's no point in worrying about that until they figure out how to break out of the shattered remains of Glass Town. There's definitely a way out, but the price to pay to leave may be higher than anyone is willing to pay.

Amanda Ripley knows about an incoming threat from the deadly xenomorphs, but she is being kept silent by the Weyland-Yutani Corporation. But in Brian Wood and Robert Carey's ALIENS TP RESISTANCE, Ripley isn't the only one with a secret to expose, as ex-Colonial Marine Zula Hendricks also has inside information about a sinister bio-weapons project. Together, can the duo expose the shady goings on that are being kept hidden from an unsuspecting public.

With the deadly threat of Drowned Earth over, writer Kelly Sue DeConnick steps in, along with artist Robson Rocha, to pick up the pieces for an amnesiac Arthur Curry in AQUAMAN HC VOL 01 UNSPOKEN WATER. When Aquaman washes up on a remote island, he's taken in and cared for by a young woman, named Caille, who's very curious about this stranger. But Aquaman isn't the only strange thing on the island, for the village seems to be inhabited by something unnatural. Can the King of Atlantis come to his senses before he meets a grisly end?

The biggest, most morphinominal crossover event in Power Rangers history is collected together in one trade for the first time in MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS SHATTERED GRID TP, from Kyle Higgins and Daniele Nicuolo. When Tommy Oliver was defeated as the Evil Green Ranger, he became a force for good alongside the other Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, but in another universe, his defeat only cemented him in his evil passions. He became evil incarnate, Lord Drakkon, and now he's ready to shatter the Morphin Grid and remake it in his image. It's going to take every single Power Ranger in history to stop him, but is even that going to be enough?

As Greg Rucka's original run on Wonder Woman reaches its conclusion, the paradise island of Themyscira is under attack as the Infinite Crisis rages in WONDER WOMAN BY GREG RUCKA TP VOL 03. Featuring art from an all star array of creators, including Rags Morales, Karl Kerschl, Australia's own Nicola Scott, and more, Diana will find the actions of her sister Amazons will change her mission forever. That's not all, for Maxwell Lord is back from the dead, as a Black Lantern, and he's out for revenge.

When Michael Uslan announced the wedding of Archie, many speculated if he finally ended up with either of his flames, Betty or Veronica. Not wanting to disappoint a single fan, Uslan treated us to two different worlds, where Archie married either of them, and now he takes us back to both of those worlds in ARCHIE MARRIED LIFE 10 YEARS LATER #1, with art from Dan Parent. Find out how differently both versions of Archie's potential married life turn out, and where some similarities might overlap.

An icon of adorable, gothic storytelling, Lenore the cutest cadaver in the land returns in LENORE VOLUME III #1, from Roman Dirge. But her return can't all be sunshine and rainbows, for the demented pickle hat is about to begin its mad killing spree.

A proficient cartoonist in her home country of Spain, Ana Galvan makes her English language debut with the Black Mirror-esque story of dehumanisation of the modern world with PRESS ENTER TO CONTINUE HC. Don't let it's bright colouration fool you, you won't find a story more bleak; where governments brutalises their citizens, where information is richer than gold and managing the population through suicide. An all too possible future that may lay in wait for us if we're not careful.

From Titan Comics Hard Crime Imprint comes a loving manga homage to Japanese noir and gangster films with RYUKO TP VOL 01, by Kagami Yoshimizu and Eldo Yoshimizu. Witness the bloody and exciting life of Ryuko, the equivalent of a princess in the Yakuza, as she returns home to Japan after an operation in the Middle East goes awry. But things aren't about to get any easier, as the Chinese Triads, terrorists and her own personal demons, are there to welcome her into their unforgiving clutches.

Married life comes with certain expectations, but some of them can't always be met, as a newly-wed wife learns in SECRETLY IVE BEEN SUFFERING ABOUT BEING SEXLESS GN, from Togame. She has a very strong libido, but her husband barely has one, so when her need for satisfaction becomes unbearable to withstand, she's left with no option but to look for it elsewhere.

Life must be hard enough being a skeleton, but Honda also has to make sure his Japanese bookstore keeps running in SKULL-FACE BOOKSELLER HONDA-SAN GN VOL 01, from Honda (not a skeleton). From making sure the store is in order and dealing with out-of-print books to keeping his eccentric clientele satisfied, there's as much laughter and tears in there as books.

After an astounding run of 193 issues over 16 years, the story of humanity's survival against a zombie apocalypse reaches its long-awaited conclusion with Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard's WALKING DEAD TP VOL 32. But it's not over just yet, as the conflict within the Commonwealth is reaching its climax, and one the series' most beloved characters won't survive it. Who can it be?

2019 is ever more becoming the year of Keanu Reeves, and what better way to celebrate than to have a pin of his likeness as Ted on your shirt from one of his earliest hits, with the BILL AND TEDS EXCELLENT ADVENTURE LAPEL PIN SET. In addition, you'll also a Bill pin featuring Alex Winter's likeness as well. Set off on your own excellent adventures with style.

Be ready to stave off against your friends when you become John McClane with DIE HARD BOARD GAME. In this boardgame, the odds are stacked against McClane when he attempts to foil the grand theft of the Nakatomi building, and the thieves will resort to any means to ensure he fails and they succeed. Get your friends together and enjoy a Die Hard experience unlike ever before.

Is your Mondo 1/6 scale He-Man figure looking all alone and without purpose on your shelf? If that's the case, you better grab yourself the MOTU SKELETOR 1/6 SCALE COLLECTIBLE FIGURE, so that he can protect your room from the dreaded evil of Skeletor. Featuring thirty points of articulation so you can move him into the most badass of evil poses, and an array of accessories, from a reversible fabric cape to his power sword and more. Don't miss out on this one!

Yes, yes. A lovely week of comics and things to be sure. Spot a little something extra you'd like, just make sure to let us know before 6pm Tuesday for us to get it sorted for you.
So until we see you next, have an awesome week, live life and read comics!
