Following on from the devastating event from Incoming, the citizens of the Marvel Universe are tired of teenaged superheroes, and now they're all being legally put out of commission in OUTLAWED #1, from Eve Ewing and Kim Jacinto.

In the year 1940, Batman and Robin joined forces for the first time, and the beginnings of the Batfamily were cemented.

One of the smartest men on Earth, Bruce Banner, has just become one of the most feared, as his malicious machinations start to come to a head in IMMORTAL HULK TP VOL 06, from Al Ewing and Joe Bennett.

In the mountains lies a village that is annually attacked by a monster, but this year, two villagers have decided to take a stand in JIA & THE NIAN MONSTER TP, from Mike Richardson and Megan Huang.

Featuring work from creators such as Phil Hester, Marc Guggenheim, Scott Koblish, Tom Grummett and Steve Pugh, have fun with stories involving the unusual disappearance of Raven's college professor, which is only the beginning of a terrible mystery, and then they investigate the leader of a cult and what happens to his followers when they join his 'church'.

Don't miss out on a brand new series from Mike and Laura Allred which kicks off in X-RAY ROBOT #1 (OF 4). In this bizarrely awesome debut issue, Max is a family man looking for more excitement in his life. Well, how much more exciting can life get when your latest experiment at work brings back in time a robot from the future that claims to be Max himself, at age 277. But this is no ordinary Max-bot from the future, this one needs his past's self to go with him on a journey to defeat the forces who wish to return the universe to its Pre-Big Bang state. If you dug Allred's work on Silver Surfer and Madman, you have to check this one out.

Back from hiatus and ready for a brand new story arc, Robert Kirkman, Scott Gimple and Chris Burnham are back for a brand new arc of their action-packed, ultra-violent series with DIE DIE DIE #9. Connie Lipshitz, having taken over the cabal, vows to bring peace to the world, and will kill more people than necessary to achieve it, while Barnaby is on the run and finding himself in some dark places. But hey, at least you can only have your nose cut off once, right?

The war between Heaven and Hell is getting locked and loaded in ARCHANGEL 8 #1 (OF 5), from Michael Moreci, CP Smith and Snakebite Cortez. In religious lore, there are seven archangels that fight according to God's laws, but unbeknownst to all is an eight archangel, and they are not bound by God's limitations. What lengths will Archangel 8 go to to win the Holy War, and how close are they to falling into the depths of they evil they swore to fight?

Virginia Hall was charged with carrying plans of the Normandy Invasion out of the hands of the enemy and into the hands of the Allies during World War II, which would turn the tide of the war. While this went off without a hitch, all that may be undone when Maya, a time-travelling assassin, is sent back to kill Virginia in ARTEMIS & ASSASSIN #1, from Stephanie Phillips, Meghan Hetrick and Francesca Fantini. Who will win this epic conflict, the assassin from the future, or the experienced spy fighting on her home turf?

There were very few things twelve year-olds wanted to do more in the 80s than hit the video game arcades, and Don is no exception, but his father won't let him join his friends and have fun. But in HEXAGON #1 (OF 5), from Michael Moreci and Jheremy Raapack, Don will learn exactly what his father was protecting him from. Dared by his friends to sneak out and go to the arcade with them, Don manages to beat the unbeatable game, Crucible, which promptly triggers an alien invasion of the Earth, and dragging Don into the intergalactic battle his father was shielding him from.

When in the United States of America, it's irresistible to take a drive down the historic Route 66, and along the way, you might spend the night at a little place called the Pierrot Hotel, a place that isn't on any map. In the pages of HOTELL #1 (OF 4), from John Lees and Dalibor Talajic, see the desperate and the secretive try to hide out in this little desolate building in the middle of nowhere, where the patrons check in and are doomed to never check out.

One the run from the dangerous Juarez Cartel, a young Mexican couple cross the border into Texas, hopefully to begins their new lives, free of criminals in RED BORDER #1 (OF 4), from Jason Starr, Will Conrad and Ivan Nunes. However some of the worst thugs from the cartel have followed them across, but the couple have found refuge with a ranch owner and their family. Alas, there is no peace to be found, as it seems the ranch family have their own dark secrets that might make being hunted by the cartel seem more preferable.

Two creators who know a thing or two about superheroes, J Michael Straczynski and Mike Deodato Jr., join AWA Inc. to launch their own superhero story, which begins with RESISTANCE #1 (OF 6). After the Earth suffers devastation on a global scale, hundreds of millions die in the incident. But not long after the fallout, a few thousand survivors develop superpowers, but which of these new super-powered beings will work for the restructuring of mankind, and which will dedicate themselves to tearing down what remains?

From TMNT co-creator, Kevin Eastman, and Simon Bisley comes a collection of three, extreme 90s-esque comic book stories in the form of KEVIN EASTMAN TOTALLY TWISTED TALES TP VOL 01. Starring characters that any combination of guys, girls, monsters, mutants, superheroes, slackers, lowlives and an incredibly fast rat, check out your weirdness censor and test your limits with this collection of pure comic insanity.

If you're after a sci-fi story that's as erotic as it is exotic, then check out MONEY SHOT TP, from Sarah Beattie, Tim Seeley and Rebekah Isaacs. Space travel is sought after by many on the Earth, to escape their dull lives, but it is ludicrously expensive. But knowing what her species is like, human scientist Christine Ocampo has figured out the perfect way to afford space travel for her and her friends: by going out among the stars and sending back their sexual exploits to the people of Earth using the internet, then using the profits gained by that to keep on travelling. It's a win/win situation, and Chris and her merry band of scientists are going to enjoy each and every last pleasure it provides.

For fans of urban fantasy stories, you can't go wrong with a copy of NOMEN OMEN TP VOL 01 TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE HEART, from Marco B. Bucci and Jacopo Camgni. Becky Kumar is a geeky twenty-year old from NYC, and also a daughter of three mothers, who's about to cross the border between our world and an ancient realm unlike any other, hiding the truth to unfathomable secrets.

From the acclaimed creator of the beloved Perry Bible Fellowship Almanack, Nicholas Gurewitch, comes NOTES CASE OF MELANCHOLIA OR A LITTLE DEATH HC. While we all know Death for his occupation of grim reaping, learn more about him as he visits a psychoanalyst to try and figur out why his troublesome child has no interest in taking up their dad's grisly job. Enjoy Gurewitch's labor of love and copious helpings of black comedy in this twisted family affair.

If you've stuck with Robert Kirkman and Lorenzo De Felici's Oblivion Song so far and are dying for some answers, then at last you're about to get some in OBLIVION SONG BY KIRKMAN & DE FELICI TP VOL 04, as the Faceless Men are revealed.

From the big screen to the comic book page, Detective Pikachu returns in a comic book adaptation of the hit movie with POKEMON DETECTIVE PIKACHU MOVIE GN, from Brian Buccellato and Nelson Daniel. Follow the journey of Tim Goodman in Ryme City, as he searches high and low for any trace of his missing father. New twists and turns lurk under every corner, but nothing surprises Tim more than his new detective partner, a walking, talking, coffee-addicted Pikachu. Experience the Pokemon world in a way unlike any before it, packed full of mysteries, and remember, you've got to solve them all.

Pretty Deadly returns for a third volume with series creators, Kelly Sue DeConnick and Emma Rios, with the mysterious PRETTY DEADLY TP VOL 03 THE RAT. Set during the sun-soaked strips of Hollywood in the 1930s, the whole of California is about to be rocked by the murder of the granddaughter of Sara Fields. Desperate to catch the cold-blooded killer, the victim's uncle calls upon the Reaper of Vengeance to aid his manhunt, but at what cost?

Check back in with the divine that live amongst us in SAINT YOUNG MEN HC GN VOL 02, from Hikaru Nakamura. Living in a flat in western Tokyo, Jesus and Buddha are having a holiday from their divine duties and settle amongst the people of Japan. Adjusting to this unfamiliar lifestyle is still taking some time, but with patience, care and a little godly intervention, the pair will mage to fit right in.

Good things come in threes, and that include Trees, from Warren Ellis and Jason Howard, with the release of TREES TP VOL 03. When a body is found by the leg of a mysterious tree by Russian police sergeant Klara Voranova, she is still being haunted by the memory of the case over a decade later, little realising how this shocking murder will change everything she knows, and how her own fate is entangled with that of the Tree's shadow.

Batman: The Animated Series made many bold changes to the characters we know from the Batman mythology, but none proved more universally praised than Paul Dini and Bruce Timm's take on Mr. Freeze. Now you can own a huge, screen accurate figure of the villain with a heart of ice with the BATMAN ANIMATED MR FREEZE 1/6 SCALE COLLECTIBLE. Featuring 28 points of articulation and swappable hands, heads and weapons, this is the ultimate Mr. Freeze action figure.

The latest Master of the Universe figure replica from Super 7 is Skeletor, but now he comes in a new packaging with MOTU 5.5IN VINTAGE WAVE 4 SKELETOR AF JAPANESE BOX. Presented in a box that was originally going to be used for the Japanese release of the figure in the 80s, add this little piece of lost history to your collection today.

If there is something extra you are after make sure to get your requests to us before 5pm Monday to give us the best chance to secure you what you are after.

So until we see you next, stay healthy, live life and read comics!

ALL STAR , COVID-19 AND YOU

Hello comic friends and family.

Just a quick message to let you know that we are taking all precautions necessary to keeping All Star a Corona free zone. Aside for increasing our cleaning measures, an added bonus for us is that All Star generally doesn't have a large number of people in the store at the same time, helping keep our store a safe space to continue shopping in.

Currently we are still open for trade to the public (until recommended otherwise) but are already making plans for other options to ensure you have access to your Standing Order or comics and trades you are after (such as delivery) should the need arise, at which point you most definitely will be looking for some new reading material to keep yourself busy.

It goes without saying the health, safety and well being of our team and all of you in the extended All Star family has always been paramount to us and we'll be doing everything we can to continue being mindful of this through this event and into the future.

We already really appreciate that your support of the store but doubly so at times like this.

Stay safe, well and read comics.

Much love,

The All Star Crew.

New Comics For Wednesday 11th March

No need for panic. We got enough new comics for everyone...just don't ask us about Batman #89.

Get stuck into it.

With the Marvel Universe entering its final days, the last two beings left remaining, Franklin Richards and Galactus, make a record of the history of the Marvel Universe itself, which you can learn all about in HISTORY OF MARVEL UNIV TREASURY ED TP, from Mark Waid and Javier Rodriguez, and presented in a larger treasury format, the same format as the X-Men Grand Design books. See the unfolding and evolution of one of the greatest comic book worlds in history, from the Big Bang through to the end of the universe, and all the superheroic origins and endings that occur in between.

Most of us are familiar with the complicated history of Cable, the rebel mutant from a dark future, but even he was a young man once. Let Gerry Duggan and Phil Noto introduce you to a young Cable in CABLE #1 DX, where he lives in a paradise with his parents, Cyclops and Jean Grey. But seeing as he's destined to be a leader of rebellious mutants, Cable's figured he may as well start getting some experience in rebellion now. What kind of trouble will he get himself into, and even if he gets out of it, will Cable still grow up to be the same man?

The Silver Surfer is the next character to receive the Marvel Tales treatment with MARVEL TALES SILVER SURFER #1, featuring two big Silver Surfer stories from his past, one of which is a double-length extravaganza. The first story, from Gerry Conway and John Buscema, sees the Surfer team up with the Mighty Thor to combat the deadly Durok. The second story is twice the size and three times the team-up, as Roy Thomas and Sal Buscema take the Silver Surfer, the Incredible Hulk and Doctor Strange and use them to form the greatest non-team in Marvel history, the Defenders!

For lovers of the shadier underworld of Star Wars comes STAR WARS BOUNTY HUNTERS #1, from Ethan Sacks and Paolo Villanelli. What should have been an average job for bounty hunters Beilert Valance, Boba Fett and Bossk goes horribly awry after Valance's mentor, the dreaded Nakano Lash, betrays them. After the three barely manage to escape with their lives, Valance desires a chance for revenge that he never though he could have, until Lash resurfaces after years of hiding. Can Valance best every other bounty hunter in the galaxy to have his vengeance?

Kurt Busiek's new Marvel Snapshots line, a series of eight one-shots that shows Marvel's greatest heroes from the Golden Age through to today through the eyes of ordinary people, begins with SUB-MARINER MARVELS SNAPSHOT #1, from Alan Brennert and Jerry Ordway. In this first issue, Namor the Sub-Mariner, one of Marvel's first heroes, is attacked by a nefarious force while out with reporter Betty Dean in Palisades Park. As the soldiers from World War II begin to return home, they'll find the battlefields have returned with them as Namor and this latest villain tear up New York City.

Holy boy wonder sidekicks, Batman, it's DETECTIVE COMICS #38 FACSIMILE EDITION, a facsimile reprint of Robin's debut appearance! That's right, folks, to celebrate the 80th anniversary of Robin, the sensational find of 1940, you can experience his tragic origin, by Bill Finger and Bob Kane. See how Batman meets his original partner in crime-fighting, as well as some other vintage comic adventures reprinted with original ads, including a Slam Bradley case from Superman co-creator, Jerry Siegel. 

Dipping into Scandinavian folklore, Mark Laszlo tells a chilling tale of malignant, parasitic spirits and long journeys in JIM HENSON STORYTELLER GHOSTS #1 (OF 4). As a man travels, he hears the wailing of a spirit from the forest, a spirit that demands passage to its burial site. Obligingly, the man carries the spirit on his back, but as he continues forward, the spirit grips him more tightly and the man feels his gait slowing. Can the traveler deposit his quarry before it kills him?

Jonathan Hickman and Mike Huddleston team up to tell you an action-packed story set in a world full of assassins in DECORUM #1 (OF 8). The main character, of course, is an assassin themselves, but this assassin outclasses the others in one important area: their manners, from their language to their kills. Find out how your good manners can get you ahead in the world, as an assassin, a courier or otherwise.

For decades, Detroit has had an avenger for justice in the form of the superhero, Stealth. But in STEALTH #1 (OF 6), from Mike Costa, Nate Bellegarde and Tamra Bonvillain, people are noticing that Stealth is taking his crusade for justice too far. While many people are quick to expect the worst of the veteran hero, only reporter Tony Barber knows the truth: the man named Stealth is an old man suffering from Alzheimer's, and that man is also his father. Can Tony convince his dad to step away from his mantle, or will the villains force him into an extreme retirement?

When young Effie runs away from home, she stumbles into a world unseen by the average human when she discovers a school for ghosts hidden in a forest in ALL MY FRIENDS ARE GHOSTS ORIGINAL GN, from Eisner award-winning writer, SM Vidaurri, and artist Hannah Krieger. But just as Effie begins to learn all the things ghosts can do, Effie's new ghostly friends ask her to find a missing spirit who wandered away from home. To succeed in this journey, Effie must not only learn that she has a special gift within her, she must also believe in it too. 

Within the Negative Zone, something is awakening, stirring and it's got the annihilation of the Marvel universe locked in its sights. As the Scourge begins to work its way out of the Negative Zone in ANNIHILATION SCOURGE TP, from creators including Matthew Rosenberg, Juanan Ramirez and more, can some of greatest heroes in the cosmos, including Nova, the Silver Surfer, Beta Ray Bill and the Fantastic Four, stop this new evil in its tracks? On top of that, why does Annihilus, the usual harbinger of annihilation, want to join the fight to stop the Scourge?

David Lapham's work on Detective Comics is finally reprinted in BATMAN CITY OF CRIME DELUXE EDITION HC which collects an epic crime drama as told by Lapham, Ramon Bachs and Nathan Massengill. As Batman tries to shut down a dangerous drug ring, Bruce Wayne finds himself drawn into a new conflict after he encounters a fourteen year old who is perilously close to the grim underworld of Gotham City.

Having been part of Marvel ever since its humble beginnings as Timely Comics, it's hard to picture a DC comic being made by Stan Lee. But now you don't have to imagine it anymore, as DC begins reprinting the special one-shots that presents Stan's unique take on the superheroes of the distinguished competition in JUST IMAGINE STAN LEE CREATING THE DC UNIVERSE TP BOOK 01. Within, see Stan Lee tackle heroes such as Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, the Flash, Green Lantern and their super-team, the JLA, with art from all-star artists including Dave Gibbons, Jerry Ordway, Jim Lee, Joe Kubert, John Buscema, Kevin Maguire and more.

With the 100th issue in its sights, the road towards the triple digit issue of IDW's TMNT reaches its end in TMNT ONGOING TP VOL 23 CITY AT WAR PT 2, from Kevin Eastman, Tom Waltz and Dave Wachter. New York City is at war, with the TMNT on one side and Karai, Agent Bishop, Old Hob and the Mutanimals, Metalhead, Leatherhead, the Pantheon and Hun on the other. Who will survive? Who will be forever changed by the war to end all wars?

The United States of America is fighting a war on two fronts in NORTH BEND #1, a new series from Ryan Ellsworth and Rob Carey. Trying to fight against the foreign forces of Russia was hard enough, but the government also must contend with a collapsing economy and political revolution. To at least regain control of their citizens, the CIA has tasked DEA Agent Brendan Kruge to use a mind-controlling drug as an experiment on unwitting Americans, but is this a step too far for Brendan, even for the sake of saving the country he has sworn to protect?

After the power grid goes out and the computing cloud goes offline, the tech savvy students of Metropolis High, and our favourite DC Super Hero Girls, are going to have to learn how to get by without technology in DC SUPER HERO GIRLS POWERLESS TP, from Amy Wolfram and Agnes Garbowska. While most students just how to figure out how cash works, some heroes are more affected, such as poor Batgirl, who can't get to school on time without her tech, and Bumblebee seems to have disappeared on top of it all. With half the team out of commission, can the Super Hero Girls find a way to restore the power and their way of life?

In his latest graphic novel, Gene Luen Yang puts his life, family and the high school he teaches at in the spotlight with DRAGON HOOPS HC GN. Sports are not a big part of Gene's life, but at the high school he teaches at, it's all anyone can talk about, especially in regard to their varsity mens basketball team, the Dragons. With the team doing so well after decades of failure, Gene takes the time to get to know the all star students playing in the team, and soon finds that this basketball season won't just change these young men's lives, but his own as well.

There's always been something about the north of England that makes it the perfect setting for stories full of witchcraft and murder mysteries, and now you can see it for yourself in NICNEVIN AND BLOODY QUEEN GN, from Helen Mullane, Dom Reardon and Matthew Dow Smith. In an attempt to unleash the great, terrible power of the ancient gods of Great Britain, a modern day druid has committed an horrific series of murders. Just as he is one victim away from fruition, his plans are suddenly halted after his latest prey, Nicnevin "Nissy" Oswald, turns out to be more than she seems.

With great powers and a good sense of right and wrong, Gamma Rae wants nothing more than to become a superhero in PRETTY VIOLENT TP VOL 01 from Derek Hunter and Jason Young. Normally, that would be such an admirable goal, but with all her siblings themselves being super villains, Gamma has become the black sheep of the family. Can Gamma win the respect of the superhero community, and can she do it without her super villain family trying to kill all her new friends?

Dig, a young wizard, can't seem to catch a break after his bag breaks and then he's kidnapped by an evil cult in an underground city. But a bad day for Dig is a good day for his two new cellmates, Iana and Crina, for with his magic, they at last have a chance to break free of their prison. Can the trio escape the evil clutches of the Blood Cultists, or are they doomed to remain prisoners for ever? Find out in a copy of THE SUNKEN TOWER HC GN, from creator Tait Howard.

Experience some of the earliest comics featuring the Transformers with TRANSFORMERS CLASSIC TV MAGAZINE MANGA HC VOL 01, from Masumi Kaneda and Ban Magami, which recollects classic manga stories such as "Fight! Super Robot Life-Form Transformers!" and "The Great Transformer War". If those stories aren't enough for you, there is also an extensive art gallery that gives you extra insight behind the creation of this timeless manga.

Both icons of the 1980s, it was only a matter of time before the Ghostbusters and the Transformers would crossover, but no-one could have foreseen one of the greatest additions to their respective lores, Ectotron! A paranormal investigator in the form of a transforming Ecto-1 Cadillac, the vehicle of choice for Ghostbusters everywhere, is now available to liven up your collection with the TRANSFORMERS GEN GHOSTBUSTERS ECTOTRON AF CS, the ultimate toy to celebrate both the legacies of the Ghostbusters and the Transformers.

New Comics For Wednesday 4th March

March! SHOW US WHAT YOU'VE GOT!!!
It's a STRANGE week to be sure!

After finally moving out of Tony Stark's shadow, Pepper Potts finally has control over her own life and found her own place in the world. So naturally, this is when Tony chooses to have his meltdown, resulting in a war between humanity and AI, which means in 2020 RESCUE #1 (OF 2), from Dana Schwartz and Jacen Burrows, that Pepper must once again don the Rescue armor and save the day.

When Alex Ross had an idea thirty years ago to show Marvel superheroes in a unique way, it led to the classic Marvels, with Kurt Busiek. But now, Alex Ross finally brings his original idea to life, beginning with MARVEL #1 (OF 6), featuring work from Ross himself, as well as other creators, such as Adam Hughes, Bill Sienkiewicz, Dan Brereton and more. Each creator presents their own, unusual story featuring characters you love, such as Spider-Man and the Avengers, and ones you may not know quite as well, such as Nightmare. All these stories are then linked together with a story from Ross and Steve Darnall, and brings to you a comic book experience unlike any you've had before.

Step back into the world of Spider-Man Noir, in the year 1939, with the whole world at the brink of war, in SPIDER-MAN NOIR #1 (OF 5), from Margaret Stohl and Juan Ferreyra. With plenty of crime about in New York City, Spider-Man Noir is content cleaning the streets of his own neighborhood. But when a murder occurs in the Black Cat nightclub, and all the leads continue to point overseas, Spider-Man will have to journey out to Europe to find the truth.

Following too many weird changes in the Marvel Universe, Dr. Stephen Strange has finally done what he thought he would never have to do: open up a school for magic. Based down in New Orleans and open to youngsters with an aptitude for the mystic arts, find out how Dr. Strange fares as a teacher in STRANGE ACADEMY #1, from two Marvel veterans, Skottie Young and Humberto Ramos.

The comic that's been in the making since Jay Garrick became the Flash in the 1940s finally arrives with FLASH #750, a major celebration of the Scarlet Speedster's legacy, featuring work from creators such as Geoff Johns, Francis Manapul, Marv Wolfman, Bryan Hitch, Joshua Williamson, David Marquez and many more. The Flash Age begins, as Paradox releases Godspeed to wreak havoc on the Flash timeline, and Barry Allen already has to contend with the supercharged Speed Force that is ruining his life. Then enjoy a variety of tales set throughout the Flash timeline from a variety of all star creators.

If you've been looking forward to Tom King, Mitch Gerads and Evan Shaner's Strange Adventures but you don't know much about Adam Strange, then be sure to pick up a copy of MYSTERY IN SPACE #75 FACSIMILE EDITION, a book length classic from Gardner Fox, Carmine Infantino and Murphy Anderson. Reprinting the first time Adam Strange teamed up with the Justice League of America, get a little more insight into the character during his prime, and enjoy some ads from the 1960s too.

After the overwhelming success that was Mister Miracle, Tom King and Mitch Gerads reunite and team up with Evan 'Doc' Shaner to take another little-known DC character and thrust them into the spotlight. This time, DC's sci-fi hero of two worlds, Adam Strange, is centre-stage for STRANGE ADVENTURES #1 (OF 12), which sees Adam and his wife, Alanna, heroes of Rann, retired from the hero business and living life on Earth. But after his best-selling autobiography starts to stir up trouble, is there a dark secret behind the legacy of Adam Strange that is about to rise to the surface? Or is it just more of the lies, deceit and fake news that pollutes our world today?

You know how his fellow superheroes have taken the news, now find out how not just Superman's, but all of the DC Universe's villains will react to the revelation that Superman and Clark Kent are one and the same in SUPERMAN VILLAINS #1. Featuring a big line-up of creators, such as Brian Michael Bendis, Bryan Hitch, Matt Fraction, Steve Lieber and more, see how villains like Lex Luthor, Mongul, Toyman, the Joker and many more change with this shocking revelation.

W. Maxwell Prince and Tyler Jenkins begin a new series that looks at what happens when the weird and the mundane come together in KING OF NOWHERE #1 (OF 5). Denis, a lovable drunken lowlife, wakes up to find himself on the outskirts of a town called Nowhere. Unsure of how he got there, Denis tries to navigate his way through the town full of unusual, mutant citizens who aren't quite all there, only to find his memories and his past catching up to him.

Mirka Andolfo returns to Image with a brand new series full of Victorian gothic horror, and it all begins with MIRKA ANDOLFO MERCY #1. In the mining town of Woodsburgh, the people are in distress after a series of brutal, unsolved murders. Things start get chillier as the snow sets in, and even more so when a woman in black, Lady Hellaine comes to town and turns up the terror in the people another notch. But what is Lady Hellaine's true agenda, and is she really the monster everyone suspects her to be?

It's not every day you get a crossover at Image as big as this one, as two of John Layman's greatest creations meet for the first time in OUTER DARKNESS CHEW #1 (OF 3), written by Layman, and reuniting him with his Chew series artist, Rob Guillory and also featuring his current Outer Darkness partner, Afu Chan, on the artwork. What's going to happen when Tony Chu, the modern day cop who gets psychic impressions from what he eats, meets the 28th century starship captain, Joshua Rigg, who has survived multiple encounters with demons, monsters and ghosts in the depths of uncharted space? Something epic, we hope!

From the creator of Head Lopper, Andrew MacLean, comes the story of a girl at the end of the world and her quest to find a powerful relic, which you can check out in APOCALYPTIGIRL AN ARIA FOR THE END TIMES HC. So far, Aria's quest has seemingly been in vain, for neither she, nor her cat Jelly Beans, can locate this mysterious source of power. But after she chances upon a creepy savage in an overgrown city, Aria may finally have the clue she needs to bring her lifelong journey to fruition.

Sean Gordon Murphy's unique take on the Batman mythos, and the relationship between Batman, the Joker and Gotham City receive the deluxe treatment with the release of BATMAN WHITE KNIGHT DELUXE EDITION HC. Collecting the eight issue miniseries, along with heaps of bonus material including Murphy's sketches, designs, inked pages and a brand new cover design, this is the definitive release of a modern classic that dared to ask: what if the Joker went sane?

When a Flerken invasion hits the Earth, and people can't tell a friendly cat from a sinister alien, a quiet night in for Carol Danvers and Jessica Drew will have to be postponed in MARVEL ACTION CAPTAIN MARVEL TP VOL 01 CAT-TASTROPHE, from Sam Maggs and Sweeney Boo. In their identities as Captain Marvel and Spider-Woman, the two BFFs will have to figure out which four-legged felines are cats and which are the destructive aliens that plot to take over Earth.

The ultimate celebration of a comic book universe that began 80 years ago with a little book called Marvel Comics #1, check out two comics that celebrated this tremendous milestone with MARVEL COMICS 1000 HC, curated by Al Ewing and featuring several of the very best creators to have ever graced the comic book medium. Collecting both Marvel Comics #1000 and #1001, explore every corner of the Marvel Universe and see all your favourite heroes, and a few you might not know about, in action done the Marvel Way.

After a gunshot wound leads to the paralysis of her lower body, Barbara Gordon must find a way to adjust to her new lifestyle and find renewed purpose in ORACLE CODE TP, a young adults graphic novel from Marieke Nijkamp and Manuel Preitano. As Barbara tries to recuperate in both body and mind at the Arkham Center for Independence, she feels ill at ease by the weird noises she hears at night, and the disappearance of some of the patients only worsens her fear. Is it all in her head, or is there something more sinister at work? Now Barbara must come to terms with herself and her new life so she can put together the pieces and solve the mystery.

 Following the events of Batman: Dark Victory, Dick Grayson begins his life-changing career as Robin in ROBIN YEAR ONE TP NEW EDITION, from Chuck Dixon, Scott Beatty, Marcos Martin and more. It isn't long before Two-Face hears about Batman's new teen protege, and Alfred Pennyworth fears what could happen to Dick if he is exposed to the same traumatic dangers as the Batman, but they all don't yet know what Robin is capable of.

In Archer's Peak, the children are disappearing and there seems to be no hope in finding the ones still lost, or restoring the childhoods of those who do return in the grim series, which has its first issues collected in SOMETHING IS KILLING CHILDREN TP VOL 01 DISCOVER NOW, from James Tynion IV and Werther Dell'Edera. Their only hope lies in the mysterious stranger, Erica Slaughter, who claims to be able to see the monster that is behind this evil, but are even her gifts enough to save the children of Archer's Peak?

When the villains require a more lethal lesson than the X-Men can be seen teaching, they send in Wolverine and his elite black ops team of mutants to take care of things. Now, you can read all of Rick Remender's run featuring the Uncanny X-Force in UNCANNY X-FORCE BY REMENDER OMNIBUS HC NEW PTG, which features unforgettable art from creators such as Esad Ribic, Jerome Opena, Phil Noto and more.

The secret past of Natasha Romanoff, the Black Widow, comes to the fore at last in WEB OF BLACK WIDOW TP, from Jody Houser and Stephen Mooney. As a mysterious new threat surfaces and begins exploiting the shady past of the Black Widow, Natasha will have to go off the grid and recount her past to find the culprit in her present. What shocking secrets await us, and what lies in the future for Black Widow?

Wonder Woman's part in Paul Dini and Alex Ross' World's Greatest Superheroes one-shot series gets a deluxe hardcover treatment with WONDER WOMAN SPIRIT OF TRUTH HC. Filled with doubts about her past and who she is, Diana uses the one thing she can trust, her Lasso of Truth, to reveal the truths about who she is, what she represents and what journey lies ahead of her.

He's the man who feels no pain, he's the man who can shock and wow and audience in the bloodiest way possible, he's Null Narcos and the star attraction of the Freak-Chic Circus Sideshow, as well as the star of CROW LETHE #1 (OF 3), from Tim Seeley and Ilias Kyriazis. Outside of these horrific performances, Narcos is a blank slate, drifting on autopilot, with little memories of his early life. However, when other performers are mysteriously murdered, memories begin to stir within Narcos, and he's not going to like what he remembers.

From the writer of Rat Queens, Kurtis Wiebe and artist Justin Osterling comes a fantasy story involving family legacies and facing your dark past which begins in DRYAD #1. In the sleepy Frostbrook, an elf and a human have settled down to start a family, but while they've retired from adventuring, it's only the beginning for their children. Their twins, Griffon and Rana, are inextricably drawn to adventure when they turn thirteen, but this adventure will force them to face the dark secrets hidden in their parents' past.

While Marvel's take on Robert E. Howard's Conan the Barbarian is the most well known, it is considerably toned down in terms of graphic content. But if you want your Conan full of unrestrained violence and more adult themes, then check out CIMMERIAN QUEEN OF BLACK COAST #1, from Jean-David Morvan and Pierre Alary. Join Conan and his companions as they try to hide from the authorities after killing a judge, before finding themselves face-to-face with Belit, the dreaded Queen of the Black Coast.

It's californication on steroids in the pages of JOIN THE FUTURE #1, from Zach Kaplan and Piotr Kowalksi, as megacities eat up the land of North America, but there are still some small rural settlements standing. With the people in the cities getting every last commodity they want or need for nothing, it's tempting to join them, but there are those who still wish to toil for their rewards and their independence. When Clem, a resident of one of these small towns, is being pressured to join a megacity, how far will she go to retain her individuality?

Following the 20th anniversary release of Paul Pope's cyberpunk classic Heavy Liquid, Image now reprints Pope's follow-up series in 100 PERCENT TP. Returning to the alternate New York City of the 2030s, 100 Percent revolves around the lives of six characters who either work at or are patrons at the Catshack strip club. With each of them having their own goals, struggles, hopes and loves, see how these six different people connect and react with each other in a world full of mixed martial arts, sex work and urban menace, which define this dystopic future metropolis.

One of the defining creative partnerships of the last decade, Mark Waid and Chris Samnee have produced many series worth of magic at Marvel Comics. Now you can own all twelve-issues of their Black Widow run in one volume with the BLACK WIDOW WAID SAMNEE COMPLETE COLLECTION TP. After some of her dark secrets are made public, Black Widow is forced to go on the run to find the answers she needs to save herself from the pursuing forces of SHIELD and other megalomaniacs.

When you take two of the comic book industry's most irreverent creators, Gerry Duggan and John McCrea, and let them run loose on an Image book, you get yourself black comedy crime series DEAD EYES TP VOL 01. When former hitman Martin Dobbs is forced to come out of retirement, it will be far from a comic book version of John Wick, it will be far more hilarious and bleedingly violent.

Life after college isn't always what you might expect it to be, which is a lesson that friends Rory and Angela are both learning in EMBARRASSMENT OF WITCHES GN VOL 01, from Sophie Goldstein and Jenn Jordan. After being dumped at the gate of her flight to Australia, Rory is trying to figure out what she can do in the world, armed only with a degree in communications and a minor in Southeast Asian Spellcraft, all the while pretending she isn't still in town to avoid her mother. Angela, meanwhile, is working for Rory's demanding and controlling mother in a cryptopharmacology lab, and must keep her friend's secret, but Angela is terrible at keeping things hidden. What are these two friends to do?

Noelle Stevenson, the acclaimed creator of Nimona, presents a series of personal essays and mini comics in her graphic memoir FIRE NEVER GOES OUT MEMOIR IN PICTURES HC GN. Covering a period of eight years during her young adult life, see as Noelle goes from an ambitious student graduating high school to a National Book Award finalist for her creation of Nimona, and all the moments, both small and big, that occur in between.

If you've checked out our 2020 Comic Book Forecast, then you'll be glad to know that another book from the list finally hits the shelves, and this week it's Moa Romanava's GOBLIN GIRL HC. Telling the story of a struggling young artist, Moa, and how her life changes after she's matched to a 53 year old celebrity on Tinder, things start off well as Moa gets the support, both emotional and financial, she seeks. But soon the young artist starts to see that the celebrity is not being motivated by philanthropy and the story starts to take a much darker, more sinister turn.

When Chase Blaine's estranged brother and sister-in-law are murdered, he becomes the legal guardian of their children, Mackenzie and Zach, in a story of family and horror in PLOT TP. Trying to do his best to raise a niece and nephew he barely knows, Chase moves them all to the ancestral family home in Cape Augusta, which overlooks a dark bog-land. A bog-land that is laden with old family secrets that are ready to haunt the latest members of the Blaine family.

If you ever plan to traverse the final frontier, you have to be ready to defend yourself against any hostile forms of alien life. Lucky for you, you can learn all you need to know with STAR TREK KIRK FU MANUAL HC, from Dayton Ward and Christian Cornia, which presents combat tactics from none other than the legendary captain of the USS Enterprise, James T. Kirk. Don't leave the safety of Earth without a copy

If there is something extra you are after make sure to get your requests to us before 5pm Monday to give us the best chance to secure you what you are after.
