CLOCKWORK ANGELS #5
GEORGE PEREZ SIRENS #1
WHY WE LOVE IT: The name George Pérez should say it all, but we are beyond excited to
work with one of comics' living masters on his own original title. He's worked on great
female characters like Wonder Woman and Scarlet Witch, but this, a team of female heroes
of his own creation, had us swooning.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: It's a scifi adventure story that spans time and space, featuring a
team of female heroes that kick butt across the universe. If you like strong female scifi
characters like Battlestar Galactica's Starbuck, Star Wars' Princess Leia, and Alien's
Ripley, you'll find a lot to love about GEORGE PÉREZ'S SIRENS!
WHAT IT'S ABOUT: As an intergalactic force enslaves planets across the galaxy, the
legendary team known only as the Sirens must reunite to save the galaxy-but is that
even possible when the Sirens themselves don't even remember who they are? And the
rest of the universe only remembers them as...villains? A six issue
miniseries featuring your new favourite comic book team, written and drawn by the master himself, George Pérez (Wonder Woman, JLA Vs. Avengers) begins his greatest story yet.
HELLRAISER BESTIARY #2
JIM HENSONS STORYTELLER WITCHES #1
WHY WE LOVE IT: Jim Henson's The Storyteller is a beloved celebration of fairy tales
and folklore. After releasing a critically acclaimed graphic novel we're thrilled to bring the
property's magic to single issues. In the spirit of Henson's inventive imagination, this
series dives into the mythology of witches and witchcraft through the ages with an
incredible blend of art styles and storytelling techniques, taking full advantage of the
comics medium.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: Four anthology style oneshots explore classic witch stories and fairy tales from all over the world, each told by a different creator with a breathtaking style and original voice. It's tales of magic and wonder as only these storytellers could imagine them.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT: S.M. Vidaurri, writer and watercolour illustrator of the award winning
graphic novel IRON: OR, THE WAR AFTER, unfolds the stunning tale of "The Magic
Swan Goose & the Lord of the Forest." When her brother is kidnapped by a witch, a
young princess must venture into the mysterious forest beyond the castle. There, the
Lord of the Forest, an armour clad spirit who watches over the wilderness, comes to her aid,
but the princess must rely on her wits to discover who she can trust before her family is
cursed forever.

And won't it be a pity,
If lives are lost during the bloody fight.

We make this promise true,

About Bigby and his Fabled foe,
And their vicious battle fought with expert timing.

MASTERFUL MARKS CARTOONISTS WHO CHANGED THE WORLD

No one has told the story of comic art in its own medium, until now. In Masterful Marks, top illustrators reveal how sixteen visionary cartoonists overcame massive financial, political, and personal challenges to create a new form of art that now defines our world. Superhero comics didn't exist until two teenagers from Cleveland created the first superhero of all time: Superman. Advertising artist Theodor Geisel released his first book in 1937 as Dr. Seuss, and children's literature was never the same. Charles M. Schulz's perseverance and passion gave the world Peanuts, the world's most famous comic strip.

Rampaging, driven, killing machines. Soulless and dead. Infected and infectious. Zombies. The epidemic of the living dead is stronger than ever in today’s pop-culture, but long before exotic viruses, biological warfare, and sinister military experiments brought the dead back to life in our cinemas and on our television screens, there were the dark spells and incantations of the ancient Egyptians, the Sumerians, and the Babylonians. Blending the historical with the modern, the biographical with the literary, the plants and animals with bacteria and viruses, the mythological with the horrifying true tales, The Zombie Book: The Encyclopedia of the Living Dead is a comprehensive resource to understanding, combating, and avoiding zombies.

BOOM
ADVENTURE TIME #32
CLOAKS #2 
FICTION SQUAD #1 (OF 6)

 WHY WE LOVE IT: After publishing the first two volumes of FAIRY QUEST, we kinda have a thing for Fablewood, where all fairy tales and bedtime stories live side-by-side. So when Paul Jenkins came up with a mystery and fantasy mash-up adventure set there and enlisted his CIVIL WAR: FRONT LINE artist Ramon Bachs, we hopped aboard faster than Alice went down the rabbit hole.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: In FICTION SQUAD, every nursery rhyme is a crime scene in the making. If you like your mystery mashed up with fantasy, this has got you covered. Fans of FABLES and ONCE UPON A TIME will find a lot to love. And if you enjoyed Humberto Ramos' art on FAIRY QUEST, then you will not be disappointed when you see Ramon Bachs' gorgeous line work. Plus, the project has thousands of Kickstarter copublishers like you!
WHAT'S IT ABOUT: Fablewood is a pretty dangerous place, but no area is more dangerous than the City of Rimes, deep in the heart of the Children's Realm. After transferring in from the realm of Mystery, a failed detective from an unfinished prose novel, Frankie Mack, is about to uncover a conspiracy that could unmake storytelling itself. After Humpty Dumpty is pushed to crack and Jack (of Jack and Jill) goes AWOL, Frankie and his partner, Simple Simon, are put on the case.

GEORGE RR MARTIN IN THE HOUSE O/T WORM #3
GEORGE RR MARTIN MEATHOUSE MAN ONE SHOT

Based on the Hugo Award-nominated short story by George R.R. Martin, best-selling author of A Game of Thrones, Meathouse Man is a darkly poignant tale set on a collection of planets called corpse worlds. On these planets, corpse handlers transmit their wills to an army of brainless bodies - once living people now rendered expendable. Perversion abounds as these corpses are exposed to appalling conditions at the whim of their handlers. The grim story follows one such handler - a man who remains nameless - through his teenage years and into adulthood, across corpse brothels, monotonous jobs, heartbreak, and betrayals. His increased detachment from reality becomes a spiraling descent into rejection and desensitization to the horrors around him. Set among towering buildings, giant rolling planetary processing units, and vast forest terrains on several different worlds, this journey serves as a modern fable of warning and a fascinating exploration of an alternate world perhaps not so different from our own.

Vampirella!" by John Shirley (award-winning horror & science fiction author, and screenwriter for the 1994 cult classic film, The Crow).

BOOM
BEE AND PUPPYCAT #5 
 Bee is going to have to figure out a way to stop time if she's going to be able to keep up
with all the temp work heading her way! With the help of PuppyCat, it looks like there is
nothing that can stop this magical temp worker from getting stuff done...except maybe an
unexpected guest crashing into her apartment.

CLIVE BARKERS NIGHTBREED #6
MEMETIC #1 (OF 3)
 WHY WE LOVE IT: After launching James Tynion IV's THE WOODS to much acclaim, we were eager to see what other ideas he had. When James-one of our favourite new voices in comics-pitched us MEMETIC as a tale of the apocalypse in three parts, we were sold!
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: MEMETIC is truly an event comic-three oversized, 48page issues detailing the end of the world over the course of three days, and a wholly unique take on the disaster genre. Much like his work on THE WOODS, James Tynion IV and fantastic newcomer Eryk Donovan (THE HOUSE IN THE WALL) will bring horror to a whole new generation and fans of Jhorror films like UZUMAKI and THE RING.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT: A Meme is an idea that starts with an individual, and then spreads throughout multiple persons and potentially entire societies. Richard Dawkins suggests a meme's success comes from its effectiveness to the host. But history shows that destructive memes can spread just as rapidly through society. MEMETIC shows the progression of a weaponized meme that leads to the utter annihilation of the human race within 72 hours. The root of this apocalypse is a single image on the internet, a "meme" in the popular sense. A meme that changes everything.

With all of the world's threats having been handled long ago by their parents, the next generation of supers - including Chris Kent, Damien Wayne, Alexis Luthor, Offspring, Megamorpho, Donna Troy and more - find themselves labelled as superstars more often than super heroes.

What secret is Damien keeping from Chris that could tear the world's finest friends apart? Who is the mysterious killer lurking behind the scenes among these spoiled super-children? And what chance do they stand against the monstrous villain that's murdering its way across the Multiverse?

 This myth-shattering graphic novel challenges readers to re-examine how the media governs their lives, whether in print, over the airwaves, or online. A chilling account of willingly-embraced oppression and abandonment of individual autonomy in exchange for the predictability and comfort of fascism, Underground is a new genre: the Graphic Novel presented as Visual Cinema. Adapted from the original screenplay of Andrew Vachss by Mike Richardson (47 Ronin, Crimson Empire, The Secret) and noted author Chet Williamson, with art by Dominic Reardon best known for his work on 2000 A.D.
When all sources of "news" are so clearly biased that none can be considered even remotely trustworthy or reliable, there is no news . . . and The Terror descends. For decades, The Rulers have been using prisoner/slave-labor to construct Underground, confident that those who flee there will willingly trade their freedom for security. Now, "truth" is what the Rulers say it is, and The Rulers rule all aspects of the human existence. But even within this antiseptically evil world, a revolutionary movement is brewing. A new breed of journalists-"The Book Boys"-risk everything to graffiti the truth on Underground's pristine walls. The intolerable act of creating a reliable source of truth-"If it's written in blue, it must be true."-is against The Rules -a huge bounty has been offered for identification or capture of any of this crew.
Adapted from a screenplay by Andrew Vachss, acclaimed author of Another Chance to Get It Right, Heart Transplant, Hard Looks and numerous prose books and stories. Features the three-part story scripted by Dark Horse publisher Mike Richardson that originally appeared in Dark Horse Presents and over 100 pages of never-before-published material.

WHAT IT'S ABOUT: For thousands of years, the world has been controlled by the "50 Families," a secret network of vampire covens engaged in a timeless struggle for power. But when the sun rises, the vampires are forced to employ the services of a human who acts as their daytime fixer and protector. Trained for centuries to be the mortal soldiers of their vampire employers, the Day Men go forth at sunrise, alone into the world, to do the bidding of their sleeping benefactors.

But the hunt becomes murkier when the hit is revealed as more than it seems. This might be one quest for which Elektra is ill-prepared. Will Marvel's deadliest femme fatale defeat Cape Crow and collect the biggest bounty of her career?

GOD IS DEAD TP VOL 03
 Mankind prayed for salvation.  As the gods of mythology fought and destroyed around them, they hoped and spoke in hushed tones of the return of the Christian God.  Now Jesus Christ has risen and once again walks among mortals.  But thousands of years of recounting the stories of the Bible won't prepare people for the truth about the All Powerful.  They believed that Jesus was the saviour of the human race and that he would return to do so again.  Now the Son of God has come back but his salvation comes as the most horrific of prices. The most audacious arc of God Is Dead has arrived as MIKE COSTA delivers the intensity and darkness in a world of divine wrath.  God is Dead Vol 3 TP collects issues #13 - 18 of the ongoing comic book series.
