BOOM
BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA #6
BRAVEST WARRIORS #26
DEEP STATE #1
 WHY WE LOVE IT: You know all those conspiracy theories you hear about? Like how the Jonestown Massacre was a failed MKULTRA experiment by the government, or how Lee Harvey Oswald was trained and brainwashed to be an assassin? Well, what if some of those were true? DEEP STATE is a dream (nightmare?) come true for conspiracy theory nuts like us here at BOOM!
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: With LUTHER STRODE, DEAD BODY ROAD, and SPREAD Justin Jordan has become one of the eminent voices in hard intelligent, original comics, and Ariela Kristantina (DEATH OF WOLVERINE) brings her unique, idiosyncratic style that has made her a breakout talent. If you're even remotely interested in conspiracy theory stories from comics like PLANETARY and SLEEPER to films like ENEMY OF THE STATE and THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR, you'll be gripped by DEEP STATE!
WHAT IT'S ABOUT: John Harrow doesn't exist, and his job is to make sure that other things don't exist, too. At any given time, the government is running dozens of black book operations, experiments that aren't on any official record and are never acknowledged to exist. Some of these are innocuous. Some of them are monstrous beyond reason. And most of the time, they go as expected and the public is never the wiser. Most of the time. John Harrow's job is to handle them when things go wrong, and do anything to make sure the government's secrets stay just that-secret.

And once they get a taste of the fast life and easy money, it won't be easy to stop.

 Featuring a story by Oscar Award-Winning Writer/Director, and Django creator Quentin Tarantino, and award-winning writer/artist/creator Matt Wagner!  The official sequel to Django Unchained in the first-ever comic book sequel ever done of a Tarantino film! Set several years after the events of Django Unchained, Django/Zorro #1 finds Django again pursuing the evil that men do in his role as a bounty hunter. Since there's a warrant on his head back east, he's mainly been plying his trade in the western states. After safely settling his wife, Broomhilda, near Chicago, he's again taken to the road, sending her funds whenever he completes a job. It's by sheer chance that he encounters the aged and sophisticated Diego de la Vega - the famed Zorro - and soon finds himself fascinated by this unusual character, the first wealthy white man he's ever met who seems totally unconcerned with the colour of Django's skin... and who can hold his own in a fight. He hires on as Diego's "bodyguard" for one adventure and is soon drawn into a fight to free the local indigenous people from a brutal servitude, discovering that slavery isn't exclusive to black folks. In the course of this adventure, he learns much from the older man (much like King Schultz) and, on several occasions, even dons the mask and the whip... of The Fox!

The pizza's got clams and peanut butter on it, so it's not clear who's going to want it, but deliver it they will. With bright, lively illustrations and classic prat-falls, this graphic novel for kids is 112 pages of super icky gross-out humor and ludicrously bad decisions; in other words, The Glorkian Warrior Delivers a Pizza is a winner.

What are you excited to read this week? Talk to us @DavesComics! 



BOOM 
BEE AND PUPPYCAT #6
 Nothing can ever be normal for poor Bee, and that includes getting strange house guests that make her nontemp life seem more like a fulltime job! PuppyCat doesn't say this often...well, he does, but he's got a big case of the "Toldyouso's" that Bee will definitely not want to hear. 
 CAPTURE CREATURES #1
 WHY WE LOVE IT: Frank and Becky's sidewriting and gorgeous artwork have always been a favorite of ours, especially with their original web comics like TINY KITTEN TEETH. Getting a chance to tell their original adorable creature story and seeing more of what they can do...yeah, we wouldn't miss this.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: Becky Dreistadt (ADVENTURE TIME 2014 ANNUAL) and Frank Gibson (THE AMAZING WORLD OF GUMBALL) are two of the most clever and visually arresting creators in the business, and this is one of their most ambitious projects ever. From the vivid visuals to the rad story and hilarious, heartwarming moments, you'll love every second in this world. If you like titles like POKÉMON or DIGIMON, or just like cool things, this is definitely the comic for you.

CLIVE BARKERS NIGHTBREED #7
DAWN OF PLANET OF APES #1
 WHY WE LOVE IT: BOOM! has a long history with PLANET OF THE APES and for good reason: We love those damn dirty apes. Serving as a perfect tableau to examine society's ills through the lens of science fiction, we were thrilled to explore those themes in the modern setting of the new films.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: Michael Moreci (CURSE, HOAX HUNTERS) and Dan McDaid (MIND THE GAP) bring the hardworld of Dawn of the Planet of the Apes to life - dealing with both classic and modern POTA questions of what the true meaning of "society" is, and if being "civilised" is even possible in a world wracked with strife. Great for fans of endstories like 12 MONKEYS, THE ROAD, and CHILDREN OF MEN.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT: Bridging the 10gap between the RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES and DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES films, fans will bear witness to the fall of humanity and the rise of Caesar's civilisation. While the apes of the world have yet to advance as a species, Caesar must find a way to unify them to one cause. On the other side of the country, Malcom must venture into the decaying Americas with his family to find a cure for the plague slowly killing his wife, Rita.

BRAVEST WARRIORS #27
EMPTY MAN #6 (OF 6)
ETERNAL #1
 WHY WE LOVE IT: We love giving readers smart and thrilling science fiction books, such as THE HYPERNATURALS, SIX GUN GORILLA, and our adaptation of Philip K. Dick's DO ANDROIDS DREAM OF ELECTRIC SHEEP?. We continue that tradition with ETERNAL, a story where humans can continually make clones of themselves, so death is a thing of the past. We need to know: What does a world like that look like?
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: William Harms (IMPALER, INFAMOUS) is crafting a gripping, sophisticated story about what happens if science completely changes the rules of life itself. This is a story where characters' ethics and loyalties are tested, for society has changed but human failings remain the same.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT: In a world of clones, the Human Liberation Army wants to free people from New Life's grasp. Their leader Gail will take the most drastic, personal measures yet to do so. Rathmann, a former homicide detective turned New Life enforcer, is on the case, and is asking tough questions.

DC COMICS GREEN ARROW ARTFX+ STATUE NEW 52 VER
From Kotobukiya. The latest DC Comics ARTFX+ Statue from Kotobukiya returns to the pages of the New 52 with a popular and colourful character, GREEN ARROW!  Introduced all the way back in 1941, billionaire Oliver Queen was marooned on a deserted island and there learned to survive by the way of the bow.  Taking those skills back to civilisation after being rescued, "Ollie" would take on the identity of Green Arrow and fight crime in Star City and Seattle, though his adventures with the Justice League would take him all around the world and beyond.  In the New 52 Green Arrow continues to defend the innocent as he investigates the truth of his past and what shaped him as a hero.
The Emerald Archer appears for the first time in the ARTFX+ lineup, posed with a wide stance as he scans for enemies and prepares to draw an arrow.  Oliver wears his New 52 costume featuring a black and green outfit that leaves his arms mostly bare for shooting.  With reinforced boots, a padded chest piece, and armoured gauntlets Green Arrow is ready for anything, and the gold accents shine on his buckles and arrow emblem belt buckle.  The archer holds his bright green bow sideways in front of him, ready for nocking an arrow from the full quiver on his back.  Wearing his trademark green hood and mask, the focused hero still shows off a bit of his blond hair and scruffy beard.
Sculpted by Atelier Bamboo, Green Arrow stands over 7 ½ inches tall (in the ARTFX+ 1/10th scale) and makes for an excellent display piece standing on his included base which he connects to via the magnets in his feet.  
Add the Emerald Archer to your DC Comics New 52 ARTFX+ collection!

SW HAN SOLO & CHEWBACCA ARTFX+ STATUE 
 A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! The incredible Star Wars ARTFX+ lineup has already featured some of the most iconic heroes and villains from the Star Wars films, and now it expands to an epic team up of two of the most popular characters of all time, HAN SOLO & CHEWBACCA!  Jumping straight out of Episode IV: A New Hope, the inseparable smuggling duo stands side by side ready to take on the forces of the evil galactic Empire.  Literally from different worlds (Corellia and Kashyyyk), Han Solo and Chewbacca formed an unlikely yet lasting friendship that would resonate with fans from their first appearance.
Ready to take on anything the Empire might throw at them, the pair of space scoundrels advance in turn as they point their weapons at hordes of ineffective Stormtroopers.  Han wears his iconic outfit consisting of a white shirt, navy vest, orange-striped blue pants, belt with holster, and tall black boots.  Meanwhile, his Wookie partner is au naturale as usual, covered in thick brown fur broken up only by his bandolier.  Both level their respective trademark weapons, a BlasTech Industries DL-44 heavy blaster pistol for the former and a crossbow-like bowcaster for the latter.  Kotobukiya's renowned craftsmanship is evident in all of the fine details from Chewie's intricately sculpted fur to the folds and creases in Han's clothing!
ARTFX+ Statues are fun-to-assemble pre-painted snap-fit kits that can be easily put together in seconds without glue or modeling skill.  Han Solo stands just over 7 inches tall and Chewbacca over 8 inches (1/10th scale) atop their included display bases; magnets in their feet provide extra stability.  Whether they're guarding your shelves alone or displayed alongside the R2-D2 & C-3PO or Stormtrooper army builder two-packs they're guaranteed to be the highlight of your Star Wars collection!

 New graphic novels arriving in store this Christmas Eve:  the mad scientists of MANHATTAN PROJECTS enter the Cold War, the final volume of the fantastic urban fantasy and Sandman spin-off LUCIFER, an in-depth analysis of Grant Morrison's Batman, indie favourite COPRA finally arrives in trade, volume 1 of gritty fantasy DARK ENGINE, a new edition collecting the first appearances of The X-Men in CHILDREN OF THE ATOM, and new collections for ARKHAM ORIGINS, SUPERMAN ACTION COMICS, NOVA, GREEN LANTERN,  TRANSFORMERS VS GI JOE and SINESTRO. 
What are you excited to read this week? Talk to us @DavesComics!




THE ANATOMY OF ZUR-EN-ARRH: 
UNDERSTANDING GRANT MORRISON'S BATMAN
 Grant Morrison has made a career of redefining heroes, but his work with Batman has been the most comprehensive. From Arkham Asylum and JLA to his seven-year run on Batman, Morrison has redefined and reworked the Caped Crusader from the ground up. He's also introduced new characters (such as Damian Wayne) and new concepts (such as Batman, Inc.). The Anatomy of Zur-En-Arrh analyzes Grant Morrison's Batman, including how it understands and reinterprets Batman's long history. Featuring an interview with Grant Morrison.
BATMAN ARKHAM ORIGINS HC

 Based on the hit video game, this volume collects in print for the first time the ground-breaking, multi-path digital comic. This prequel story features an inexperienced Batman going up against crime bosses Black Mask and The Penguin for the first time!
COMPLETE JUNIOR & SUNNY BY AL FELDSTEIN HC

 Long considered to be prime examples of late 1940s "headlight" and "Good Girl" art comics, issues of Junior and Sunny have been quite difficult to find and very expensive to obtain. Until now! Created, written, and illustrated by the legendary E.C. Comics artist/writer/editor Al Feldstein for the notorious Victor Fox of Fox Feature Publications, The Complete Junior and Sunny presents the full run of these comics, along with a historical introduction by Grant Geissman. Although the stories are basically charming, "typical teenage" period pieces, Feldstein's artwork often pushes the envelope for the time, with titillating covers and often-suggestive images in the stories themselves. It's probably a good thing that Dr. Fredric Wertham never found out about Junior and Sunny! Seduction of the innocent, indeed!
COPRA ROUND ONE TP VOL 01

 They're ugly. They're mean. But up until today, they've always been loyal. So when one of their own betrays them, the men and women of COPRA have no choice but to turn their nightmarish skills back on everyone who ever looked at them funny. Collecting the first six issues of Michel Fiffe's super-hero revenge series focusing on the exploits of the COPRA team, a group of super-powered vigilantes and mercenaries betrayed by one of their own and hunted by the US government.
CORTO MALTESE UNDER THE SIGN OF CAPRICORN

 This book, the first of 12 volumes, launches the definitive English language edition of Hugo Pratt's masterpiece, presented in the original oversized B&W format with new translations made from Pratt's original Italian scripts.
Long before the term "graphic novel" entered the popular lexicon-ten years before Will Eisner's A Contract with God-Hugo Pratt pioneered the long-form "drawn literature" story. Corto Maltese set the standard for all adult adventure comics in Europe. By the mid-1970s Corto was the continent's most popular series and Hugo Pratt the world's leading graphic novelist.
Hugo Pratt's peripatetic sailor was featured in a series of 29 stories. The adventures of this modern Ulysses are set during the first 30 years of the 20th Century in such exotic locales as Pratt's native Venice, the steppes of Manchuria, the Caribbean islands, the Danakil deserts, the Amazon forests, and the waves of the Pacific.
Corto Maltese: Under the Sign of Capricorn collects the first six inter-connected short stories Pratt created in France in the early 1970s: "The Secret of Tristan Bantam,""Rendez-vous in Bahia,""Sureshot Samba,""The Brazilian Eagle,""So Much for Gentlemen of Fortune," and "The Seagull's Fault."

DARK ENGINE TP VOL 01 ART OF DESTRUCTION

 By blood and fury, Sym is born, and sent back in time to destroy her creators' enemies. With ribsword in hand, with gore in her curling locks, she is unstoppable. But the alchemists that made her do not realize that the engine that powers her is sentient, that it is the seed of their destruction.
Collects DARK ENGINE #1-4

DOCTOR SPEKTOR TP VOL 01

 TV legend. Wall Street wolf. Internet mogul. Tabloid bad boy. Master metaphysicist. Spiritualist. Monster hunter. Doctor Adam Spektor is all of these things... and less. For fifteen years, Spektor has traveled the globe to smoke out and defeat werewolves, vampires, ghosts, and everything else that goes bump in the night... and yet, his success has brought him no peace. Some part of him is missing, something he needs but can't name. But he's about to find what's missing in an unlikely place. A supernatural thriller that shatters all realities, courtesy of award-winning author Mark Waid (Kingdom Come, Daredevil, Indestructible Hulk)!

 In this epic from GREEN LANTERN #24, GL CORPS #24, NEW GUARDIANS #23-24, RED LANTERNS #24, GL ANNUAL #2 and GL #23.1: RELIC, Relic has arrived! The lights of the Lanterns are fading as the emotional spectrum is being drained. It's up to Hal and the Green Lanterns to rally the Corps if they are going to survive!
GRUBBY LITTLE SMUDGES OF FILTH GN

 In a land ruled over by a self-indulgent king, a prisoner uses whatever filth is at hand to create a work of great beauty on his cell door. When it is discovered, those who seek to profit from his talents drag the artist through the thorny forests and sterile deserts of the kingdom. Only when he stands before the King himself will we learn of his true nature. In the grand SLG Publishing tradition of introducing new creators and daring new concepts we proudly present Daniel Reed and his cautionary tale about an artist who has created the world's most beautiful piece of art using his own boogers.
HENNI GN

 In a fantastical world where old traditions and religion dominate every aspect of life, lives a girl named Henni. Unlike most in her village, Henni questions and wonders what the world is like as she comes of age. Striking out on her own, Henni goes out in search of truth, adventure, and more! Henni is a commentary on, religion, coming of age, and being yourself.
LONE WOLF & CUB OMNIBUS TP VOL 07

Yagyu Retsudo will stop at nothing to kill Itto Ogami-even sending his last child to kill the Lone Wolf. And if his daughter can't finish the job, Retsudo is prepared to offer a reward for Itto that should have every bounty hunter, ronin, and peasant out for Itto's head! Collects Four stories from volumes 15, all of volume 16, and two stories from from volume 17.
LUCIFER TP VOL 05

 In this final volume collecting issues #62-75, the forces of Heaven, Hell, and everyone in between wage a final battle to determine the fate of both Yahweh and Lucifer's Creations - a fate no one, not even the Lightbringer, could foresee. And in the aftermath of the battle, how will Lucifer and his cohorts pick up their lives and tie up loose ends?

It's the fifth volume of the world's greatest secret science history, THE MANHATTAN PROJECTS. "The Cold War" reveals the dark days of the 'real' Cuban Missile Crisis, the assassination of an American President, and the end of the Manhattan Projects-Star City alliance.
Collects THE MANHATTAN PROJECTS #21-25
 
MMW WARLOCK TP VOL 01
In 1972, Marvel Comics marched into a new era - an era in which super heroes increasingly reflected the world's turmoil and social unrest. And the hero for that era was the newly christened Adam Warlock! Mixing action and allegory, Roy Thomas and Gil Kane armed the character that Stan and Jack called "Him" with the sublime Soul Gem, and launched him on a wild ride across the cosmos to Counter-Earth. Hastened by the High Evolutionary to become the savior of this parallel planet, Warlock must rally humanity against the evil of the Man-Beast! This volume is a can't-miss foundation for Marvel's cosmic era, so reserve your copy today! Collecting MARVEL PREMIERE #1-2, WARLOCK (1972) #1-8 and INCREDIBLE HULK (1968) #176-178.

Happy New Year everyone!
It's a small but mighty week for new comics, with Grant Morrison's lost MIRACLEMAN story and a brand new series for AGENTS OF SHIELD, an adorable all ages comic about a girl and her giant fuzzy best friend in ABIGAIL AND THE SNOWMAN, a double-sized EAST OF WEST, and the winner for most unusual crossover of the year STAR TREK PLANET OF THE APES: THE PRIMATE DIRECTIVE. (I think they wanted to create this series just to make that pun, don't you? ;-)
What are you looking forward to this week? Talk to us @DavesComics!



ABIGAIL AND THE SNOWMAN #1
 WHY WE LOVE IT: From his acclaimed run on THE MUPPET SHOW COMIC BOOK to his beloved THOR: THE MIGHTY AVENGER, Roger Langridge has earned a reputation for telling classic stories filled with heart and humour. After working with Roger on JIM HENSON'S THE MUSICAL MONSTERS OF TURKEY HOLLOW, we couldn't wait to set him loose on his first creator-owned series since the Eisner Award SNARKED. The fact that there are Yetis in this only made us even more confident Roger's latest is going to be something special.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: The story of an imaginative young girl who befriends a sophisticated Yeti is perfect for fans of all-ages classics like MONSTERS, INC. and LILO AND STITCH, while Roger's fun, often hilarious art will be admired by fans who grew up on CALVIN AND HOBBES.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT: Abigail is a nine year old girl with a huge imagination who moves to a small town where she's the new kid at school, struggling to make friends. All that changes when she meets a Yeti named Claude who has escaped a top government facility. Abigail and Claude become the best of friends, but to make sure he can truly be free from the "Shadow Men" chasing him, they must go on an adventure to find Claude's real home!

BATMAN ETERNAL #39
 Someone has pieced together the mystery behind the plot to crush Gotham City...but it's not Batman! The Riddler knows all - and he'll never tell!
EARTH 2 WORLDS END #13
 Will Huntress become a casualty of war?

Welcome to the start of another new comic year, and Marvel are certainly kicking things off straight away with the debut of new series for (hopefully) loveable schmo ANT-MAN, Original Sin/Agent Carter tie-in miniseries OPERATION S.I.N,  and the world's most cheerful superhero THE UNBEATABLE SQUIRREL GIRL. I'm also very excited for the release of FEATHERS, an all ages, steampunk fairytale adventure that looks fantastic, and LADY KILLER, about a picture perfect 60s housewife who also happens to be a deadly assassin. Ms Marvel creator G Willow Wilson takes over as a new storyline begins in X-MEN, Fables spin-off FAIREST ends, as does HAWKEYE VS DEADPOOL, Matt Fraction's sellout space fantasy ODY-C returns, as well as new issues for HELLBOY AND THE BPRD, ANGELA: ASGARD'S ASSASSIN, BATMAN DETECTIVE COMICS, ANGEL AND FAITH, TREES, FADE OUT,  EDWARD SCISSORHANDS, MIRACLEMAN and AMAZING SPIDER-MAN.
