New Comics For Wednesday 30th October


Halloween and our Witchy signing behind us, this fifth week is still plenty scary...just look at the size of this monster shipment and it's coming for YOU!

A new age in the X-Men's history, the Dawn of X, continues with EXCALIBUR #1 DX, from Tini Howard and Marcus To. The home of magic in the Marvel universe, Otherworld, has found new guardians: Excalibur, a team of mutants, featuring Rogue, Gambit, Rictor and Jubilee, led by Captain Britain. But that's not all, for this line-up also includes none other than one of mutantkind's greatest threats, Apocalypse, but is this his chance to prove himself their greatest ally?

Following in the vein of Ed Piskor's X-Men: Grand Design series, Tom Scioli carries on the format to tell the nearly 60 year long history of the Fantastic Four, beginning with FANTASTIC FOUR GRAND DESIGN #1 (OF 2). See the moments you know recreated, including the origin of the Fantastic Four, their first clashes with Doctor Doom and the coming of Galactus. Then witness some you may not have known involved the famous foursome, including the introduction of the Black Panther and the revelation of the Inhumans. No need for volume upon volume of trades, these two issues will give you the perfect crash course in all things fantastic and Marvel, illustrated by Scioli in the classic Kirby style.

It's almost Halloween, which means it's the perfect time for Marvel's ghastly abominations to return. That's right folks, get ready for a brand new era of Marvel Zombies as MARVEL ZOMBIES RESURRECTION #1, from Phillip Johnson and Leonard Kirk, hits the shelves. When the body of Galactus arrives at the edge of the Solar System, Earth's mightiest heroes go out to investigate, but they are nor prepared for the horrors contained within the corpse of Galactus. Infected with a biological virus, they all deteriorate into undead travesties of their former glory, and there is an entire homeworld for them to feed on. Friends, families, will any body be spared the horrors of Marvel Zombies?

In an attempt to have his final revenge on that infernal pest, Spider-Man, Norman Osborn combined the Carnage symbiote with his Green Goblin formula to become the scourge of New York, the Red Goblin. While we know the outcome of those horrid shenanigans, Patrick Gleason, Pete Woods and more shine a light on some of the Red Goblin's escapades before his final defeat in RED GOBLIN RED DEATH #1. Find out how dreaded the Red Goblin truly was in this special one-shot release.

Just in time for Halloween, horror comics extraordinaire, Joe Hill, launches his pop-up horror imprint, Hill House Comics, with BASKETFUL OF HEADS #1 (OF 6), written by Hill and featuring art from Leomacs. On Brody Island, June Branch's boyfriend has been snatched away from her by four dangerous criminals. Her only means of defense is an 8th century Viking axe that has the power to cleave a head from a body, but keep it alive. Now June must learn all she can from the severed heads of the people who kidnapped her boyfriend, but can she cut through their deception to learn the truth?

As one zombie saga begins anew, another reaches its ultimate conclusion with DCEASED #6 (OF 6), from Tom Taylor and Trevor Hairsine. With the technovirus zombie plague spreading all over the Earth, humanity inches nearer and nearer to extinction, with only a handful of Justice League members standing between the zombies and the survivors. Will they be enough to save the day, or have they already lost?

Last week came the most iconic Batman issue of the 90s, now this week you can grab an affordable copy of Superman's most recognised 90s comic, with DOLLAR COMICS SUPERMAN #75. The issue in which the Man of Steel gives his life to save Metropolis, Dan Jurgens let's it rip with splash page after splash page of epic combat action between Superman and Doomsday you can only find in comics.

From the Eisner-winning team behind Gideon Falls, Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino, comes the psychological nightmare that is JOKER KILLER SMILE #1 (OF 3). The mind of the Joker is terrifying, a black hole that sweeps up anyone and everyone in its wake, to twist them until they're as mad as he is. But the confident Dr. Ben Arnell, who's ready to analyse and diagnose the Joker after many have failed, and he's prepared his mind to withstand the worst the Joker can throw at him. But while his mind is secure, is Arnell's life quite as safe as it once was?

A DC Black Label book unlike any other arrives this week, a medieval fantasy telling the stories of two different bands of warriors fighting the same threat 30 years apart begins with LAST GOD #1, from Philip Kennedy Johnson and Riccardo Fedderici. The land of Cain Anuun was under siege from the last living god, and their army of the undead, but a company of heroes stopped them in their tracks and became rulers of Cain Anuun, ushering an era of peace. But now, three decades later, the Last God is back to finish what it started, and the old company no longer have the strength to fight, leaving the fate of the realm in the hands of a new generation.

It's been a year since the Sandman Universe was restarted, and now year two begins with SANDMAN UNIVERSE SPECIAL HELLBLAZER #1, from Si Spurrier and Marcio Takara, which welcomes back the fan-favourite character, John Constantine, back into the fold. When last we saw John, he was murdered by a corrupted Timothy Hunter, but now John is back, he's either going to set Tim straight, or send him straight to hell.

In another world in DC's Dark Multiverse, Superman made the ultimate sacrifice to save Metropolis and the world from Doomsday, much like in the traditional DC Universe. But in TALES FROM THE DARK MULTIVERSE DEATH OF SUPERMAN #1, from Jeff Loveness, Brad Walker and Andrew Hennessy, the world was grateful for his sacrifice, and Lois Lane is twisted by her rage and grief, becoming the Eradicator. Fueled by anger and hatred, she will unleash on those who let Superman die and cleanse the world in a way Superman never could, and never would.

When you're waiting at an old train station in Russia on a still night, what's the worst that could happen? If you're Hellboy, quite a lot, as Mike Mignola and Matt Smith show us in HELLBOY & BPRD LONG NIGHT AT GOLOSKI STATION, as that quiet night becomes a demon battle between three sinister figures breaks out.

As we stand one installment away from the big, one hundredth issue of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the City at War arc heats up in TMNT ONGOING #99, from Kevin Eastman, Tom Waltz and Dave Wachter. Following the fallout of last month's unbelievable issue, New York City is drowning in chaos, leaving Bishop relentless in his pursuit of his targets, while Donatello and Metalhead have their final showdown that has been a long time coming.

Mark Millar finally returns to his popular time travel series with CHRONONAUTS FUTURESHOCK #1 (OF 4), featuring art from Eric Canete. Your favourite time-travelling physicists, Corbin Quinn and Danny Reilly, have gone to the future and are trying to win it over with their new device, the Timehawk. They're a little older, not much wiser, but definitely cooler, as the duo of best-friends embark on a new mission.
If you're already loving the sound of that, but don't want to wait months to get the complete story, then dear reader, you are in luck. For not only does issue one of this exciting miniseries arrive this week, but so does CHRONONAUTS FUTURESHOCK #2 (OF 4) , CHRONONAUTS FUTURESHOCK #3 (OF 4) and CHRONONAUTS FUTURESHOCK #4 (OF 4), meaning you can get the entire story in one hit and devour it in one sitting.

When Spider-Man came back from Battleworld and the Secret Wars, he came back rocking a slick, black costume. But we barely got to enjoy it before it was taken away, revealed to be a living alien being. So Peter David and Greg Land take us back to those original black suit days with an untold story in SYMBIOTE SPIDER-MAN TP. Featuring a timeless battle between Spider-Man and Mysterio, with Black Cat and a secret shame of her past caught in the middle, it's the classic kind of Spidey story you don't get any more in today's comics and well worth checking out.

Warren Ellis and Jon Davis-Hunt return to bring you WILD STORM TP VOL 04, which sees the return of Jenny Mei Sparks. Jenny has been around for over a century, and recently spent two decades of it drunk after having finally seen too many bad things. But now she's sobering up with a new plan, but unfortunately, other parties have other plans. Plans that result in the reduction of Earth's population by ninety percent. Can Jenny enact her own plan, and prevent the machinations of others?

Valiant's resident assassin, Roku, get her own miniseries to display her finely honed killing skills, starting with ROKU #1 (OF 4), from Cullen Bunn and Ramon Bachs. Traversing around the world, killing anyone who dares try to stop her in her path, she will have to sort out a problem that can't be solved with a swift execution.

Prepare yourselves for the coming of a new superhero with PINK LEMONADE #1, from Nick Cagnetti. Her name is Pink Lemonade, and she has everything a new hero needs: a cool costume, a mysterious identity and a more mysterious past and the desire to do good. So how then, you may ask, has she found herself in jail after trying to help a child? If you're dying to know, then be sure to pick this one up when it hits the shelf.

Fans of the artist with one of the most eye-catching, quirkiest styles today, Farel Dalrymple, presents a collection of works never before seen in OFTEN WRONG TP VOL 01. Within, you'll find original short comics, paintings and illustrations, all in her signature style, along with concept art for her popular series, such as Proxima Centauri, Pop Gun War and It Will All Hurt. If all that still isn't enough for you, you also get one hundred sketchbook drawings as well.

With the STREET ANGEL DEADLIEST GIRL ALIVE TP, Jim Rugg and Brian Mauca collects every special issue of Street Angel in one, convenient volume, starring the homeless, ninja, skateboarding girl, Jesse "Street Girl" Sanchez. She doesn't let her social conditions affect her drive to protect the neighborhood, fighting bullies, street gangs, hunger and other bad guys. Plus, she even helps a stray dog and saves Christmas! If this series can't put a smile on your face, we don't know what will.

If you've got presents to give to a comic book fan, why not wrap them up in something special? If that's what you'd like to do, the Dark Horse has you covered with HELLBOY WRAPPING PAPER & UMBRELLA ACADEMY WRAPPING PAPER. Featuring three sheets of wrapping paper in each pack, covered in artwork featuring your favourite Hellboy and Umbrella Academy characters, you won't find any finer wrapping paper anywhere else.

As if straight from the 80s themselves, a new range of Masters of the Universe action figures arrive with MOTU 5.5IN VINTAGE HE-MAN ACTION FIGUREMOTU 5.5IN VINTAGE HORDAK ACTION FIGUREMOTU 5.5IN VINTAGE SHE-RA ACTION FIGURE & MOTU 5.5IN VINTAGE SKELETOR ACTION FIGURE. Each of these figures are loving recreations of the original toys, which means you can relive your nostalgia for the good old days whilst forging new memories with He-Man, Hordak, She-Ra and Skeletor.

If you're tired of the same old white short box to store your comics, then you should give your collection a little more pizazz with the MARVEL GRAPHIC COMIC BOXES GHOST RIDER. Featuring artwork of Marvel's resident flaming-skulled, rubber-burning agent of vengeance, from Arthur Adams and Matthew Wilson, just looking at it will get you excited to read what lies within them

With the year coming close to an end, now's the perfect time to check out a copy of PREVIEWS #374 NOVEMBER 2019, which will be packed full of comics, toys and other goodies to get you excited for what's coming in the New Year! Make sure you're ready to start the new year properly, with all the exciting books and products soon to arrive.

New Comics For Wednesday 23rd October


Spooky week ahead, we've got our Free Comic Halloween event this Saturday, followed closely by our Witchy signing event with local creator, Ariel Reis on Sunday afternoon, which rolls into the next All Star Womens Comic Book Club meet up! Lots to see and do and that's before we've even gotten to this monster list of new releases for this week!

It's been years since Mary Jane Watson last performed, but as we saw in Amazing Spider-Man #25, she's still got killer acting skills, and she finally gets to start putting them to use in AMAZING MARY JANE #1, from Leah Williams and Carlos E Gomez. MJ's landed a role in a big Hollywood film, but who can she trust when the director is none other than Quentin Beck, AKA Mysterio? The Marvel Universe's favourite redhead finally gets her own ongoing series, and it all begins here; don't miss out.

While he hasn't worked on a worldwide status since the Dan Slott days, Peter Parker finds himself globetrotting once again in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN FULL CIRCLE #1, a mega-sized issue from Nick Spencer, Chris Bachalo, Jonathan Hickman, Chris Sprouse and more. Nick Fury has called upon Spider-Man to help them stop the latest threat to menace the Earth, but what is it this villain has planned from his steel box prison? We don't know, but it must be huge if Wolverine and Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham are making special guest appearances.

The Hulk may be immortal now, but Al Ewing and Joe Bennett take you billions of years into the future in the groundbreaking IMMORTAL HULK #25, a comic unlike any other, where the Hulk now rests in peace. But there is no peace for the universe he left behind; the inevitable heat death has taken place and now the Breaker of Worlds stands unopposed in a defenseless world. You'll have to check out the issue if you want to learn the shocking resolution.

Before he was immortal, indestructible, totally awesome, heck, even green, Bruce Banner was the Incredible Hulk, and you find out how it all began in INCREDIBLE HULK #1 FACSIMILE EDITION, from the Marvel dream team of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Not only will you see how milquetoast Banner becomes the unstoppable Hulk, but also his first fight against the Iron Curtain and their monstrous agent, the Grey Gargoyle. Relive the classic excitement, and amuse yourself by checking out the original ads from the 60s.

In Jonathan Hickman's bold, new Dawn of X, Captain Kitty Pryde and her crew, Storm, Pyro, Bishop and Iceman sail the seas as the Marauders, in MARAUDERS #1 DX, from Gerry Duggan and Matteo Lolli. With the backing of Emma Frost and her Hellfire Trading Company, Pryde and the X-Men will travel the oceans to right any and all wrongs committed against and by mutantkind.

The scariest Shazam this side of Mazahs, the Infected Shazam from the land of the Batman Who Laughs is wreaking havoc in Black Adam's kingdom in BLACK ADAM YEAR OF THE VILLAIN #1, from Paul Jenkins and Inaki Miranda. Now Black Adam must be the hero of his kingdom, lest the Infected Shazam wins and a corrupted Billy Batson sits upon the throne.

If you missed out on a copy of the House of Secrets #92 facsimile issue and really want to see the original debut of Swamp Thing, then DC has your back with DOLLAR COMICS SWAMP THING #1, which reprints the origin of one of DC's spookiest characters. When an act of sabotage is set to kill Alec Holland, the Swamp Thing rises to seek his vengeance in a macabre tale perfect for the Halloween season.

If that Swamp Thing Dollar Comic has whet your appetite for all things swampy and scary, then you definitely can't pass up SWAMP THING GIANT #1. Featuring two brand new stories from Mark Russell, Marco Santucci, Andrew Constant and Tom Mandrake, as well as reprinting three classic stories from Swamp Thing's past, this 100-page package of a comic is just what you need to fuel your Swamp Thing drive.

Richard White is a former FBI agent seeking redemption, and his old mentor might just have the job to achieve it in AMERICAN CARNAGE TP, which collects the entire 9-issue limited series from Bryan Hill and Leandro Fernandez. A fellow agent on an undercover operation is found dead, and they suspect that the white supremacist group he was infiltrating was behind it. While he passes as white, Richard himself is African-American, and must now himself deceive a group that wants to see him dead, to avenge the fallen colleague.

A young Dinah Lance takes the spotlight in BLACK CANARY IGNITE TP DC ZOOM, from Meg Cabot and Cara McGee. It's not often that youngsters can plan their future out, but Dinah seems to have pulled it off. She'll win the battle of the bands with her two friends, then join the Gotham City Junior Police to start herself along the path of a crime fighter. But plans seldom work the way we want, as Dinah finds out when a mysterious figure does its best to sabotage her life and threaten her family, which makes her ponder what secrets lie in her family's past.

For centuries, America has been home to a secret war between a coven of witches and the group of men trying to tame them, called the Architects. It was thought the conflict was over when the witches killed the leader of the architects in 2005. But thirteen years later, in HEX WIVES TP, from Ben Blacker and Mirka Andolfo, it would appear that it wasn't the end at all and the new hope lies in Isadora... who has no memory of ever having been a witch.

After ten exciting, action-packed volumes, Kengo Hanazawa's zombie apocalypse manga reaches its timely conclusion with I AM A HERO OMNIBUS TP VOL 11. Humanity is about to end, but which side will the remaining survivors fall into? Will they become part of the horrific zombie hive-mind, or will they succumb to the finality of death? 

From award-winning creators G. Willow Wilson and Christian Ward comes a sci-fi story of conspiracy, intrigue and adventure with INVISIBLE KINGDOM TP VOL 01. Two unlikely women, one a religious acolyte, the other a hard boiled freighter pilot who has uncovered a conspiracy in the galaxy's largest religion, are on the run together, from those who don't wish for the truth to be revealed. Now, the duo must decide where their loyalties truly lie, and prepare themselves for the anarchy they may be about to release.

For most of her life, Naomi McDuffie thought she was just another ordinary kid, an orphan adopted by some very loving, supportive parents. But that illusion shatters when Superman and Mongul duke it out in her Northwest American town, leading her down a winding path to the truth of her heritage in NAOMI SEASON ONE HC, from Brian Michael Bendis, David Walker and Jamal Campbell. Full of twists and turns you won't see coming, learn all about a new corner of the DC Universe as Naomi learns about her past, and her future.
Naomi is set for big things in the future of the DC Universe, so if you want to know how it all begins, don't miss out on this one!

One of the biggest events to celebrate Marvel's 80th anniversary, Chip Zdarsky and Mark Bagley go back to where Spider-Man started and tell his journey from 1962 to 2019 in SPIDER-MAN LIFE STORY TP, except in this world, Peter and the rest of the Marvel universe is subject to the passage of time. Always a little older, a little wiser, and eventually past his peak, find out how Peter Parker navigates all manner of wars, from Vietnam to Civil, with some Secret in between. You'll also experience the other big moments that changed, not just Spidey's life, but comics as a whole, but with a very different Spider-Man with decades of experience under his belt.

Jon Kent and Damian "Ian" Wayne are back as Superboy and Robin, the Super Sons, for a new adventure in SUPER SONS BOOK 02 THE FOXGLOVE MISSION TP DC ZOOM, an all-action, all-adventure, all-ages graphic novel from Ridley Pearson and Ile Gonzalez. Following the fallout of the PolarShield Project, Jon and Damian are on the run, and their fathers are still missing in action. As the dynamic duo work together to find a sample of a deadly virus that threatens the town of Wyndemere and Jon's mother, Lois Lane, their ally Candace is on her own mission to learn the mystery behind her own destiny. But with these differing goals, will all three be able to maintain a steady team? Or are they destined to fall apart?

Zander Cannon is back with a new series featuring his large prison to house even larger kaiju monster threats with KAIJUMAX SEASON 5 #1, a brand new starting point where fans can continue and newcomers can jump in. With much of the prison already revealed in previous series, now you'll go down to Orange Mile, where the worst of the worst kaiju criminals lay in wait for their final penalty. That's right folks, you're about to see Kaijumax's infamous Death Row.

In the far future, mankind has the ability to travel to the stars... but it is incredibly expensive. The price has put many off travelling the stars, but that hasn't stopped Christine Ocampos, who has managed to her own teleportation device, the Star Shot. Now in MONEY SHOT #1, from Tim Seeley, Sarah Beattie, Kurt Russell and Rebekah Isaacs, Christine and a team of scientist/pornstars will explore strange new world, seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly film videos the internet has never seen before.

If you or a friend missed out on a copy of a Christmas-themed retelling of Die Hard last year, then be sure to pick up a copy this year with A DIE HARD CHRISTMAS GIFT SET, which features the book from Doogie Horner and JJ Harrison, as well as a bonus plushie of the John McClane. It's the perfect Christmas gift, but it won't last long on the shelf. Be sure to secure your order ASAP.

If you loved Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen's Descender series and wished it ran longer than six volumes, then you're in luck, for the duo have returned to pick up the story ten years later, beginning in ASCENDER TP VOL 01. The science-fiction setting has now given away to fantasy, magic replacing machinery, and young Mila, the daughter of Andy and Effie, is about to get roped into an adventure of her own when an old robot friend of her father's unexpectedly turns up.

When an entire school unexpectedly disappears, leaving no trace but the hole the foundations were built into, the parents of the students were left to mourn. But as horrific as that experience is, it's a lot worse for the displaced students and teachers who are left to fight to survive the dreaded dimension they find themselves in DRIFTING CLASSROOM HC VOL 01 PERFECT ED UMEZZ, from Kauzo Umezz.

The series that has captured the hearts and minds the world over gets a tribute artbook featuring the work of 200 different artists with the VISIONS FROM UPSIDE DOWN STRANGER THINGS ART BOOK. See the town of Hawkins, Indiana, the eerie setting of Stranger Things be represented in all it's spooky glory by artists such as Rian Hughes, Matt Busch, John McCrea, Butcher Billy, Orlando Arocena, Emma Needell and many, many more. A great book for art lovers and fans of Stranger Things, and the perfect give for those who are both. 

Make sure to let us know before close on Tuesday if there is anything else you'd like us to stash for you.
So until we see you next have a great week, live life and read comics!

New Comics For Wednesday 16th October


Motoring on through October with another swish week of new comic releases. Also did you see we've got a couple of ace free store events coming up soon?
First is Free Comic Halloween of Saturday 26th and then your chance to meet local creator, Ariel Reis and to check out her new release graphic novel of her super popular web series, Witchy the very next day!
Plenty to keep you busy, but for now let's check this week's releases!

Absolute carnage has been wrought all over the world, and the people of Doverton, Colorado are reliving the nightmare of Carnage turning their home into Carnage USA. Having slaughtered the town's inhabitants, Kasady turns his sights to the Avengers who tried to stop him the first time in ABSOLUTE CARNAGE AVENGERS #1 AC, from Leah Williams, Alberto Albuquerque, Zac Thompson and Guiu Villanova. But can Captain America, the Thing, Hawkeye and Wolverine manage to be a match to a far deadlier, more dangerous Carnage that ever before?

As Marvel continues to celebrate its 80th anniversary, Johnny Blaze, the original Ghost Rider, gets his due as three of his quintessential stories get reprinted MARVEL TALES GHOST RIDER #1, from Roger Stern, Bob Budiansky, Len Wein, Ross Andru, Michael Fleischer and Tom Sutton. The first story takes a deep look into what turned motorcycle stuntman Johnny Blaze into the supernatural, flaming skull biker out for vengeance. Then you're treated to a team-up between Ghost Rider and Spider-Man as they battle none other than... the Orb! To round off the book, learn what might happen if Johnny and Ghost Rider were two separate entities, and what havoc that would cause on the Marvel Universe at large. If you don't know a lot about Ghost Rider and want to get started, this isn't a bad place at all.

 House and Powers of X may be over, but the conclusion is only the beginning for the new wave of X-Men, and that wave starts with X-MEN #1 DX, from the scribe who always blows our minds, Jonathan Hickman, with our favourite mutants being brought to life by the inimitable Leinil Francis Yu. Cyclops is the leader of a new team of X-Men, each member a powerhouse in their own way, and ready to stand between mutantkind and devastation.

Longtime co-publisher of DC Comics, Dan DiDio, takes on writing duties for METAL MEN #1 (OF 12), featuring art from Shane Davis and Michelle Delecki. Within, Doc Magnus is hard at work exploring what it means to be a sentient being with his beloved Metal Men. But could there be a new member of the Metal Men incoming when Nth metal from the Dark Multiverse is found at Challengers Mountain?

Inspired by the famous Clan of the Fiery Cross serial from the Adventures of Superman radio series, Gene Luen Yang takes you back to the 1940s with SUPERMAN SMASHES THE KLAN #1 (OF 3), featuring art from Gurihiru. The Lee family has moved from Metropolis' Chinatown district and into the heart of the city itself, and while many welcome their new neighbors, prejudice and hatred is stirred within others. The Ku Klux Klan is at large, with intrepid Daily Planet reporters Lois Lane and Clark Kent looking to expose their hate crimes, but when young Tommy Lee is kidnapped by the Klan, only Superman can save the day and smash the Klan.

In the Knightfall we all know and love, Bruce Wayne was able to reclaim his mantle as Batman from Jean-Paul Valley. But in the depths of the Dark Multiverse, there lies a world where Bruce failed and Valley has become more than Batman, he is Saint Batman. If you're dying to know how Gotham and the world has changed then check out TALES FROM THE DARK MULTIVERSE BATMAN KNIGHTFALL #1, from Scott Snyder, Kyle Higgins and Javi Fernandez.

While our real world politics already seems outrageous, things could be a whole lot weirder as you'll see in the return of the Mask in MASK I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE MASK #1 (OF 4), from Christopher Cantwell and Patric Reynolds. Years ago, Edge City was plagued with a variety of gruesome, cartoonish murders; the killer, a green faced goon called Big Head, seemed to have disappeared. But now he's back, and he's vowed to Make America Green Again!

In the world of David Hine, Brian Haberlin and Geirrod Van Dyke's MARKED #1, those with tattoos aren't just showing off some cool ink, but they use them to channel their magical powers. Once upon a time, the Marked used their powers to battle occult threats, but when they dried up, times changed and they used their powers to achieve unimaginable levels of hedonism. But now it looks like the hedonists will have to abandon the lifestyle to combat a new threat when one young member of the Marked attempts to create a form of hybrid sorcery, and unleashes evil instead.

Various one shots and annual material from Jeff Lemire's Black Hammer universe get collected for the first time in BLACK HAMMER STREETS OF SPIRAL TP, featuring work from Lemire himself, along with Ray Fawkes, Mike Allred, Tyler Crook, Emi Lennox and more. Within, a girl with a kind nature that is offset by her monstrous appearance tries to make herself look like everyone else; a witch in possession of a house of horrors guides her guests around her home and Colonial Weird goes on his most bizarre adventure yet. If those stories aren't enough, you also get a complete guide to the people and places of the Black Hammer world.

Simon Spurrier and Matias Bergara return to conclude their post-apocalyptic fantasy story featuring a man and his mutant unicorn with CODA TP VOL 03. Hum's life is full of highs and lows, and now he's hit his all time low when his wife, for whom he set out to on his quest to cure her illness, has left him. But it only gets worse as he's left alone in the barren wastelands by his trusted mutant unicorn too; left to pick up the remaining pieces of his shattered reality and try to move on and forge a new life.

If you've been enjoying the new series of Critical Role, then you'll be thrilled to find out how the series begins with CRITICAL ROLE TP VOL 01 VOX MACHINA ORIGINS, from the creators behind the smash-hit Critical Role podcast. They may be full-fledged heroes now, but all heroes have to begin somewhere, and that origin is collected in its entirety in this one volume. See how the heroes of Vox Machina band together and save the world for the first time.

In GODDESS MODE TP, from Zoe Quinn and Robbi Rodriguez, machines has gone to serving humanity to being served by humanity. Azoth is the godlike artificial intelligence that humankind has become dependent upon to provide all their necessities, and it's Cassandra's humiliating job to perform maintenance on it. But everything changes when Cassandra is accidentally pulled into the secret virtual world inside the machine, where magic and metadata are combined, featuring other sentient beings who wish to end the dominance machines have over the people. Is Cassandra the missing piece they need to finally claim victory?

Kamala Khan is back for a new volume of Ms. Marvel, and she's more magnificent than ever in MS MARVEL BY SALADIN AHMED TP VOL 01, from Saladin Ahmed and Minkyu Jung. Things are never calm in Jersey City, but thankfully Ms. Marvel is there to quell some of it, but things are about to get more personal than ever before when one villain shows great interest in Kamala... and her family! There is loss and grief waiting in the wings, but Kamala won't have long to grieve, with an alien invasion imminent. Ms. Marvel may be keeping things steady for the citizens of Jersey City, but who is there to support her?

It's always difficult to step out of someone's shadow, but Per of Esterpike will find herself needing to step into her heroic older sister's shadow and become her in SPARROWS ROAR ORIGINAL GN, from CR Chua and Paolo Chikiamco. Esterpike is under siege by barbarians, and the people look to Per's older sister, Elena, to save them. But when Elena is struck down by the barbarians, Per will have to step up and step into her sister's place to keep her legacy alive. But can Per save her village and her sense of identity at the same time?


If you've always wanted a copy of one of the most iconic comic covers of the 90s, then you have to grab a copy of DOLLAR COMICS BATMAN #497, from Doug Moench and Jim Aparo. On the outside, you get the memorable moment of Bane destroys the Batman's back, extravagantly illustrated by none other than Kelley Jones, and on the inside find out the sequence of events that leads to the breaking of the Bat.

There's a little girl who's vampiric father is making her life a living hell, and that just doesn't sit well for a certain agent of vengeance in Charles Forsman's REVENGER HALLOWEEN SPECIAL ONE SHOT. Now the Revenger is taking on the role of vampire slayer to give the young girl her life back, but is Revenger ready to duke it out with a fully-grown, fanged fiend?

Like the mythical phoenix, a new Robotech series rises from the ashes of the Event Horizon story line with ROBOTECH REMIX #1, from Brandon Fletcher and Elmer Damaso. Now you'll get to see the giant robots and iconic characters you've come to know and love go to brand new, unexplored places.

The unexpected alien invasion that is proceeding even more unpredictably continues with Inio Asano's DEAD DEAD DEMONS DEDEDEDE DESTRUCTION GN VOL 07. With Japan the hot spot of the invasion, the American President is demanding all intelligence regarding the aliens and their technology from the Japanese government. But the Japanese Prime Minister couldn't care less, as he tries to find his favourite idol goes into the same bunker he does when the time comes to blow away the alien mothership. During these tense political times, the Occult Club goes to the seaside to meet with someone who claims to have had interactions with aliens and accidentally reveals something mysterious about Oran's past.

From local comics creator, Chris Gooch, comes his latest graphic novel, DEEP BREATHS SC GN. An anthology book full of comics featuring tension, violence, monsters and moments, you'll get stories that range from a space bounty hunter after a frog princess; a woman finding a condom where it shouldn't be and even one about a spoiled art student that gets his first freelance job. As different as the stories may be, look out for the themes that tie them together.

We hope your bags are packed and ready for another horror-fueled trip to Gideon Falls as Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino present GIDEON FALLS TP VOL 03 STATIONS OF THE CROSS. Collecting the latest story arc in the smash-hit series, the story now goes through the looking glass, as Father Burke hunts down a killer named Norton Sinclair. But this is no simple manhunt, for this killer is bound to neither the laws of time nor space, so it's not just a matter of where Sinclair is, but when as well.

Take some time to step back and look at the expansive, decades-spanning history of Marvel's very own Spider-Man with the MARVELS SPIDER-MAN FROM AMAZING TO SPECTACULAR HC. Matt Singer takes you through all of Spidey's highs and lows, showcasing the best moments of artistry in both illustrations and words. It also features in-depth interviews with various creators who have worked on Spider-Man, including Roger Stern, Alex Ross, Brian Michael Bendis, Dan Slott, Sal Buscema, Gerry Conway and more. You won't find a more comprehensive history of the Webbed Wonder anywhere else.

If you want to get the kids off the computer and into some comics, then get them a copy of MINECRAFT STORIES FROM THE OVERWORLD HC, an anthology book full of stories from the acclaimed video game, Minecraft. Featuring fun, all-ages stories from creators such as Hope Larson, Jenn St. Onge, Ryan North, Meredith Gran and more, explore what lies under every block in the land of Minecraft.

Neil Gaiman and Colleen Doran takes the beloved fairy tale, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, and views it through a mirror darkly in SNOW GLASS APPLES HC. In a land ruled by a benevolent queen, she must protect her kingdom from her monstrous stepdaughter. But is the queen strong enough to hold the monster back, let alone destroy it?

Deep in a forest lies Wizdoms, a magical school for beastmen to learn about all things arcane and sorcery, and maybe even fall in love. Eight anthology tales featuring students at the school await you in Nagabe's WIZE WIZE BEASTS OF WIZARDING WIZDOMS GN VOL 01, and once you've experienced all eight and been captured by the serenity of the forest where the magic lies within.

Some of the greatest heroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe are immortalised in plastic as the AVENGERS 4 LEGENDS 6IN AF ASST 201903 series hits the shelf. From this selection of six figures, you can obtain versions of Captain America, Iron Patriot, Iron Man and Valkyrie from Avengers: Endgame, as well as Heimdall from Avengers: Infinity War and Vision from Captain America: Civil War. If you manage to grab a full set, you'll also have all the pieces needed to build your own Avengers: Endgame version of Thor, sunglasses and all.

As always, make certain to get any last minute requests to as before close on Tuesday to give us time to secure it for you. So until we see you next, have a great week, life live and read comics!

New Comics For Wednesday 9th October


Daylight savings is HERE! You know what that means? An extra hour of daylight to enjoy reading comics in...just like these ones!

The entire world knows his name, but take a moment to revisit Spider-Man and Peter Parker's humble origins with the AMAZING FANTASY #15 FACSIMILE EDITION, from Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. When this book hit the shelves, little did anyone know what a powerhouse of comic book storytelling had been unleashed upon the world, and now you can see how it all began, vintage ads and all.

For decades, Doctor Doom has plagued the Earth, the Fantastic Four and Reed Richards; able to escape retribution by hiding behind his diplomatic immunity, as well as his country of Latveria. But now Christopher Cantwell and Salvador Larroca cut him down to size in DOCTOR DOOM #1, where, following an act of terrorism that cost thousands of lives, Victor Von Doom is at the top of the suspect list. Now the most wanted man in the world, he's lost all his political power and must rely only upon himself to prove his innocence... of this crime, at least.

With Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker only mere months away from concluding an epic saga, get yourself ready with JOURNEY STAR WARS RISE SKYWALKER ALLEGIANCE #1, from Ethan Sacks and Luke Ross. Picking up from where The Last Jedi left off, the Resistance is in dire need of weapons, ships, and allies for their final stand against the First Order. General Leia Organa and Rey are trying to recruit former Rebel allies, the Mon Calamari, whilst Poe and Finn seek a weapons cache on the moon of Avedot; but they're not alone, with deadly criminals after their heads stalking the moon's surface.

For the past eleven weeks, Jonathan Hickman has taken us all through a journey of mutantkind's rise and fall. Now he ties up the last of those loose ends with POWERS OF X #6 (OF 6), featuring stunning artwork from RB Silva. See the final stones of the foundation, upon which years worth of future X-Men stories will be built on, laid.

Experience one of Batman's most horrific cases of all time with BATMANS GRAVE #1 (OF 12), from two masters of modern comics, Warren Ellis and Bryan Hitch. Inhabiting the mind of a murder victim, who's missing half of his face, Batman must try to solve the case before he loses his sanity, not to mention, his life. Can even the World's Greatest Detective pull it off? Or will he just end up another victim himself?

The deadly love life of Harley Quinn and the Joker is presented unlike ever before in JOKER HARLEY CRIMINAL SANITY #1 (OF 9), from Kami Garcia, Mico Suayan and Mike Mayhew. Dr. Harleen Quinzel is a forensic psychologist for the GCPD, and she helps solve many a crime with her profiling abilities. But a five year old case, where her roommate was murdered by the serial killer called Joker, has stuck with her, and it's starting to make her go crazy as she tries to analyze his sick, pervasive mindset. See how that leads Dr. Quinzel down the road to become none other than Harley Quinn.

Now that Lex Luthor has incited Doom all over the world, the Joker has to work extra hard to wreak the most havoc in JOKER YEAR OF THE VILLAIN #1, from horror director extraordinaire John Carpenter, Anthony Burch and Phillip Tan. See what twisted lengths the Clown Prince of Crime will go to so as to ensure that he is the last man laughing.

In a world that is overrun with monsters, collectively known as the Grimm, Beacon Academy takes in the best and brightest students to turn them into the next generation of hunters and huntresses. Now you can see what the latest intake of students get up to in RWBY #1 (OF 7), from Marguerite Bennett and Mirka Andolfo, which also ties into the popular Rooster Teeth RWBY animated web series.

With Halloween only weeks away, the time for stories all spooky and scary are precisely what the witch doctor ordered, so be sure to grab a copy of SECRETS OF SINISTER HOUSE #1, which sees your favourite DC heroes and villains in tales of terror and fear. Featuring work from Paul Dini, Rafael Albuquerque, Bryan Hill, Jorge Fornes and more, uncover what's hiding in the dark corners of the DC Universe, including a return to world of Red Rain, where a vampiric Batman stalks the gothic streets of Gotham.

A good comic book series always has an event waiting in the wings, and now its time for Buffy the Vampire Slayer to have hers, beginning with BUFFY VAMPIRE SLAYER ANGEL HELLMOUTH #1, from Jordie Bellaire, Jeremy Lambert and Eleonora Carlini. As a slayer, Buffy was tasked with keeping the forces of hell from invading the Earth through the Hellmouth, but she has failed. Mistress Drusilla and her ally, Spike, have returned, and Buffy has little recourse but to ally herself with a stranger, the vampire seeking redemption, Angel. Are these two the only hope left to seal Hellmouth and return Mistress Drusilla back under the Earth?

Relive one of the greatest 80s movies of all time, the Karate Kid, but through the eyes of its antagonist, Johnny Lawrence, in COBRA KAI KARATE KID SAGA CONTINUES #1 (OF 4), from Denton Tipton and Kagan McLeod. Having already been a karate champion two years running, Johnny finds his world turned upside down with the arrival of a new student, who is also aiming to become a karate champion and has won the heart of the girl who rejected Johnny. Now, Johnny is going to win back not just his pride, but his old flame too. But is his version of events more, or less, reliable than what was seen on film?

Following the momentous three hundredth issue, Todd McFarlane is back to smash the record for longest running independent comic book with SPAWN #301, as both writer and artist. Also featuring work from Greg Capullo, Clayton Crain, Jerome Opena and more, don't miss out on a slice of comics history.

The DC Superhero Girls are off to Metropolis High School in DC SUPER HERO GIRLS AT METROPOLIS HIGH TP, from Amy Wolfram and Yancy Labat. But with all their superheroing, Batgirl, Wonder Woman, Supergirl, Green Lantern, Bumblebee and Zatanna are always late to school, and now they've been sentenced to join an after school club for a whole week. However, that's easier said than done, as the girls find themselves kicked out of their favourite clubs not long after joining them, and evil isn't about to take a break either. What's a superhero girl to do?

Some of the most memorable villains to come out of Power Rangers In Space, the Psycho Rangers, are back in their own original graphic novel, POWER RANGERS PSYCHO PATH ORIGINAL GN, from Paul Allor and Giuseppe Cafaro. But who brought them back, and for what nefarious purpose? Red Space Ranger Andros and his sister, Pink Space Ranger Karone, who created the Psycho Rangers when she was corrupted by evil, will navigate the dark depths of space to find the answers.

More lighthearted, romantic misadventures await you in SPIDER-MAN LOVES MARY JANE GN TP UNEXPECTED THING, from Sean McKeever and Takeshi Miyaza. Mary Jane is about to finally have her dream date with none other than Spider-Man, though first, she has to get through a date with the dorky Peter Parker. MJ now has to choose between the two suitors, but maybe that choice will get a lot easier to make once Gwen Stacy enters the frame and sets her sights on Peter. But little does anyone know the true ties that bind Peter, Spider-Man, Mary Jane and Gwen together.

Go back in time to the days of World War II and the Golden Age of Superheroes in the Black Hammer universe with BLACK HAMMER 45 WORLD OF BLACK HAMMER TP VOL 01, from Jeff Lemire, Ray Fawkes, Matt and Sharlene Kindt. Amongst all these heroes was the elite Air Force team, the Black Hammer Squadron, who combated threats of the Nazis, the occult and the ultimate fighter plane pilot, the Ghost Hunter. Experience all the highs and lows of the Black Hammer Squadron, and be gripped by the excitement the story brings.

Before breaking into the world of comic books, Craig Thompson and his brother Phil worked hard on a Wisconsin farm for ten years; the experiences of which he uses to bring you GINSENG ROOTS #1. Within, you'll find a story that looks at the politics between North America and China, how the export of ginseng works in the economy and best of all, the bond between two brothers other the course of those ten years.

Imagine the no-nonsense, Magnum-wielding Dirty Harry as a store security guard and you have yourself SHOPLIFTERS WILL BE LIQUIDATED #1, from Patrick Kindlon and Stefano Simeone. The world's largest retailer needs the best of the best to secure its interests, which is precisely who Security Officer Nussbaum is. With his shoot first, ask questions never mentality, he's in for a serious shock when he learns of a society that lives beneath the behemoth retail store. How will this affect Nussbaum, and what can it tell us about our consumerism society of today?

From the Eisner award-winning creator, Tillie Walden, comes her latest graphic novel of friendship, grief and moving on, ARE YOU LISTENING GN. Lou was already on her own journey when she comes across Bea, who is on the run and also looking to start her own personal journey. With neither of them sure where to go, they drive, and experience encounters that make them learn more about themselves and how to move on from what they left behind. Is there a final destination in mind, or is it only about the journey itself?

Hannah and Johnny are a husband and wife couple, living the hard life in the back of a truck in HARD TOMORROW HC, from Eleanor Davis. Hannah is the socially aware, thirty-something, home-health and antiwar activist, whilst her husband is high as a kite and trying to build them a house before the winter sets in. Through the lens of their lives, Davis tells a story of human companionship and how it helps us get through even the hardest of tomorrows.

Nova Huang lives in a world of modern fantasy, working at her grandmother's spell book shop by day and hunts down supernatural beings by night. Tam Lang, Nova's first crush, is a nomadic, genderqueer werewolf who has just found themselves back in their New England hometown. That is where things begin in MOONCAKES GN, from Suzanne Walker and Wendy Xu, as a friendship is about to be rekindled and one of the biggest supernatural threats is right on their doorstep, and they'll need to unite to stop it.

There's a real treat for Steven Universe fans here as PUG DAVIS TP, from creator of Steven Universe, Rebecca Sugar, hits the shelves. Pug Davis is a gruff space hero, renowned for his stupendous feats of braver; he also has the head of a pug. His partner is the sensitive Blouse, who is the total opposite of Pug, but together, they fight and defeat threats from across the galaxy so that you don't have to worry about them on Earth. Come for the space battles, stay for the clash of personalities!

Christine is an everyday youngster living in a Chinese-American suburb, but she is enamored by another girl her age who lives in the same suburb, Moon. Moon is everything that Christine isn't: confident, artistic and impulsive; so when Moon suddenly becomes her next-door neighbor, two unlikely friends soon become best friends in STARGAZING GN, from Jen Wang. But even Christine couldn't guess Moon's biggest secret: that she receives visions from other-worldly beings that tell her she doesn't belong on Earth. But when Moon finds herself fighting for her life in hospital, from a condition that spawns those visions, can Christine be the friend she needs?

Television and entertainment as we know it today is completely different to what it was five or six decades ago, and for that, we have Rod Serling to thank when he revolutionised storytelling for the small screen. To learn about the industry changes he made, check out a copy of TWILIGHT MAN ROD SERLING BIRTH OF TELEVISION SC, from Koren Shadmi, which tracks Serling's rise during the Golden Age of Television and the creation of the Twilight Zone.

Garth Ennis and Goran Sudzuka return to warp the reality of FBI Agents Shaw and McGregor in WALK THROUGH HELL TP VOL 02. The agents encounter Paul Carnahan, a child-killer who died before they could bring him to justice, as their guide to the twisted dimension of terror, but can they trust him to navigate them safely, or have they sealed their fate by trusting him?

That extra hour is not gonna nearly enough time to get all this reading done, still what an impressive list, right?!
As always, spot thing extra you are after, please much sure to request it before close Tuesday so we can do our best to secure you a copy.
Until we see you next, have a great week, live life and read comics!
