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!
