What you may have missed in July! 

We were on break this month, but that doesn't mean we didn't read LOTS of great titles. Let us get you all caught up on some great titles you may not of picked up in July! 
Picture
Honorable Mention Highlights: July 2022
  • There's Something Wrong with Patrick Todd #1 (w: Ed Brisson, a: Gavin Guidry)
  • Above Snakes #1 (w: Sean Lewis, a: Hayden Sherman)
  • She Bites #1 (w: Hedwig Hale, a: Alberto Hernandez)
  • Brother of All Men #1 (w: Zac Thompson, a: Eoin Marron)
  • Dark Spaces: Wildfire #1 (w: Scott Snyder, a: Hayden Sherman)
  • Flavor Girls #1 (W: Loic Locatelli-Kournwsky; A/CA: Loic Locatelli-Kournwsky)
  • Blink #1 (W: Christopher Sebela; A/CA: Hayden Sherman)

There's Something Wrong with Patrick Todd #1
A kid down on his luck using his supernatural mind control powers to pay for his mom's medical care. Also, there's mysterious men in masks, a noble detective trying to fit together a mystery, and a guy named Zeus beheading people. It's the Neo-Noir "Life is Strange" you never knew you needed.

Above Snakes #1

A by the books Western revenger story with a teensy bit of added supernatural flavor. Following the saga of a wringed man out for revenge with his talking, blood-drinking vulture, this book doesn't bog itself down with trying to be unique in a familiar genre but instead tells the story it wants to tell while letting the reader fill in the necessary beats. It's not necessarily groundbreaking, but that's where it finds its charm.

She Bites #1

A little girl needs a babysitter. Well, mainly she needs someone who can help her buy cigarettes. Because she's 134 years old.... and a vampire. It's a silly, fun premise with two interesting characters both with plenty of room for some heavy discussions. I think if Hale really takes their time, they can make sure this series DEFINITELY doesn't bite.

Brother of All Men #1

Strong Wicker Man vibes set in 1920s Canada. A Private Eye named Guy is looking for a missing woman, utilizing a reference photo to ask for her whereabouts. Also featured in the photo, Guy's brother Bastien. Problem is, Bastien has been dead for years. The mysteries get even more stacked up when Guy discovers both his brother and the missing woman are tied to a cult run by an enigmatic man named Brother XII.

Dark Spaces: Wildfire #1

A heist set during a chaotic California wildfire. Granted, this may hit too close to home for some people, but the slow-drip character development and the general "tear down the rich" theme of this book has me hooked. Sherman has a CRAZY way of laying out the panels too, which i absolutely dig and totally fits the tone if trying to keep all the chaos of a wildfire in line.

Flavor Girls #1

There are some concepts that tickle that delightful nostalgia bone and this title is absolutely one of them. A Sailor Moon-esque story where aliens invade and four girls are turned into sceptor-wielding fruit-themed superheros is basically the best sounding plot I could never have come up with. It's adorable and fun - just go get it.

Blink #1

Is it a cult? Is it a society from another dimension? Is it aliens? Is it time travelers? None of those questions are answered in the first issue of Blink, but watching our main protag try to figure out where she comes from and why she can remember something that never should have been, I definitely want to find out.

​What you may have missed in June! 

We didn't get to cover every book we read this month, but there were plenty others we want to make sure get their fair share of attention! Check out the highlights below of books we didn't feature during June episodes. 
Picture
Honorable Mention Highlights: June 2022
  • The Closet #1 (w: James Tynion, a: Gavin Fullerton)
  • Skybound presents Afterschool #1 (w: Justin Benson & Aaron Moorehead, a: Greg Hinkle)
  • The Lonesome Hunters #1 (w/a Tyler Crook)
  • Beware the Eye of Odin #1 (w: Doug Wagner, a: Tim Odland)

The Closet #1
What happens when the monster in your closet is more than just a scary story kids tell on the playground? What happens when your emotional trauma from family infighting starts to manifest? I don't know, but I'm pretty sure Tynion is about to tell us.

Skybound presents Afterschool #1

Haven't we all wished at some point that our pets could talk? It'd make it a lot easier when they're barking at you and you have no idea why. But if I have to also accept murderous behaviors from my pets, I think I'll just stick with the whining, thanks.

The Lonesome Hunters #1
There's lots of IPs that revolve around monster hunters, but more often than not they're buff, powerful, and in charge of their destiny. This is... not that. Two hunters, neither one exactly willing, both just trying to make sure they don't die. I'm into it.

Beware the Eye of Oden #1
The vibe of this book is sort of all over the place, but that makes it kind of endearing - almost something like an anime where the mood entirely hinges on which character is on screen. A Viking prince has to return the Eye of Odin, and goes on an adventure with a couple merry warriors. It's a little gory and a little silly, but seems like it could be a lot of fun.

​What you may have missed in May! 

May flew by like a breeze, and while we covered the great majority of excellent new titles on the show, there were a few that slipped through the cracks that we wanted to make sure didn't go unnoticed! 
Picture
Honorable Mention Highlights: May 2022
  • Grim #1 (w: Stephanie Phillips, a: Flaviano)
  • Eight Billion Genies #1 (w: Charles Soule a: Ryan Browne)
  • I Hate This Place #1 (W - Kyle Starks; A/CA: Artyom Topilin, Lee Loughridge)

Grim #1
Jess is a grim reaper. She has no idea why she is dead, but she is and she has a job to do. On a routine soul grab, her scythe is stolen. At some point there is a skull face, a lot of rage and a mention of the veil between the two worlds of life and death. With a familiar premise, a fun cast of characters and plenty of action, this book is absolutely one to die for (sorry).

Eight Billion Genies #1

This is possibly one of the most chaotic premises I've ever heard of and it definitely delivers. In an instant, every person on earth is given their own genie with one wish. Thinking fast, the owner of a local bar wishes that his bar and everyone within it are protected by wishes made outside. What follows is a series of surprisingly personal tales backdropped on the chaos happening in the world, which is now cube-shaped because somebody wished for that, I guess?

​I Hate This Place #1
Is it aliens? Is it ghosts? Is it demons? Is it... all of the above? Honestly, we have no idea what we're dealing with in this book, aside from a couple trying to flip a house they inherited. Spoiler - I don't think they're going to sell successfully, even in this market.

What you may have missed in April! 

April showers brought us some quality reading time, which means plenty of books we didn't get a chance to cover in this month's episodes! Check out the pull you may have missed this month. 
Picture
Honorable Mention Highlights: April 2022
  • Alice Ever After #1 (W: Dan Panosian; A: Girgio Spalletta & Dan Panosian)
  • G.I.L.T #1 (W: Alisa Kwitney; A: Mauricet)
  • Miskatonic High #1 (W: Mike Shea; A: Ryan Mendoza)
  • Joneses #1 (W: Michael Moreci; A: Alessandro Vitti, Ive Svorcina)
  • Immortal Red Sonja #1 (W: Dan Abnett; A: Alessandro Miracolo)
  • Vanity #1 (W: Jurii Kirnev; A: Natalia Tsarevnikova)

Alice Ever After #1
Have you ever wanted to read Alice in Wonderland and be like... super bummed out after? Well, good news! Check out Alice Ever After for a dark, reality blurring retelling of Alice's adventures in Wonderland. Alice moves through a cruel and unforgiving world as she seeks comfort through he imaginary friends that exist in a realm only accesible through the ingestion of special pills. Oh, and it's narrated by cats.

G.I.L.T #1
This comic absolutely drips with that classic blend of dry Manhattan wit and sarcasm. A young(ish) woman is assigned as a caretaker for an elderly (but don't tell her i said that) woman who lives alone in her modest apartment. When she arrives for her first day, the caretaker finds her caretakee acting strange. Turns out, she's performing some spells. Timey-wimey spells! Off to the 70s we go!

Miskatonic High #1
I will always appreciate the Breakfast Club formula of throwing misfit high schoolers at random problems and watching them bond. In this case, those problems are time traveling swords and demons with tentacles. It's leans a little heavy into tropes (hello, girl who lives for social media), but has a good enough setup that I look forward to issue two.

The Joneses #1
We've been seeing a lot of books centered around "what happens when normal folks get powers?" But what makes this one stand out is very current, very social-political focus this story is taking. While it definitely touches on the "great power comes with great responsibility" trope, it focuses more intently on what it means to be different, and how being different in a very homogenous community makes life super hard.

Immortal Red Sonja #1
Sonja is cursed! What is she cursed with? A SHIRT! pause for gasps
It goes deeper than that, clearly. Beyond just being upgraded to more practically effective armor against her (and her typical audience's) will, Sonja is shackled to a talking chainmail shirt and sent on a quest into a quasi-Arthurian land of fae magics, curses and legends. It's shaping up to be an absolute load of dark, bloody fun.

Vanity #1
One of the great things about comic books is how creative you can be with a medium that incorporates words, images, narration, omniscience, and perspective hopping. This book does something we don't see every day - it's a first person viewpoint! Seeing everything from the main character's eyes means the beautiful art style is filled with nuance and specificity. Admittedly, there's not a ton that goes on in this first book, but the style is really, really cool.

What you may have missed in March!

Aren't we lucky to have had so many great comic releases this month! There were too many to choose from, so we've got a handful of excellent titles to share that we didn't get a chance to feature on the show! 
Picture
Honorable Mention Highlights: March 2022
  • Juniper #1 (W: Nathan Tomsic, Georgiana Brown; A: Lorenzo Colangeli)
  • Broken Eye #1 (W: Martin Etxeberria, Xabier Etxeberria; A: Inaki Arenas)
  • We Live: Age of the Palladions #1 (W/A: The Miranda Brothers)
  • Beyond the Beyond #1 (W: Christian Tropeano; A: Gian Fernando)
  • Cities of Magick #1 (W: Jakob Free, Will Tempest; A: Will Tempest)
  • Zombies vs. Robots Classic #1 (W: Chris Ryall; A/CA: Ashley Wood)

Juniper #1
What a cute, cheeky little book. Another tale of a spunky girl with a talking robot friend (I'm honestly surprised that's so common nowadays), but it's set up with a fantastical world and very creative mystery building. I'm excited to see just how deep this story goes.

Broken Eye #1
It's like the Dead Zone meets Trainspotting. A blue color dockworker in Liverpool gets embroiled in the workings of a crime lord. Because, y'know... his eye can see the past and stuff. Characters are a little flat, but it seems like it will be a tasty little neo-noir.

We Live Rise of the Palladiums #1
Done in two different issues, Black and White, this premiere issue of the new volume of We Live is told from two different perspectives. We are sent back into the We Live world with new problems and a completely original vibe. Did you miss We Live? No problem, this story does an excellent job standing on its own with all the weird, colorful post-apocalypse-y goodness we're familiar with.

Beyond the Beyond #1
It's a tale as old as time - a rebellious young girl seeks the exciting world outside her walls, and isn't afraid to break the rules and get in trouble to get what she wants. Okay, except this time she steals a spaceship. I mean, at least she didn't grow legs or whatever, right?

Cities of Magick #1
I want to like this book so bad. It seems like a cool concept: a post-apocalyptic world where tech is replaced by magic. There seems to be setup for a later discovery that perhaps the magick isn't as different from tech as we think. I cool concept, interesting thrust and fun representation of magick? Sign me up. My main issue is just the characters feel SUPER flat and lifeless. The dialogue being a bit bland just throws this off for me, but it still deserves a mention for those sold enough on the concept.

Zombies vs Robots Classic #1
​Ten years or so ago, ZVR hit the shelves. It's a wild book that sees two different apocalypses go ahead to ahead across time. Just like... such a fun, wholesome concept. ZVC is now back with reprints of early issues that include new stories and art mixed in. Fun stuff and a classic read.

What you may have missed in February! 

The most romantic month of the year has come and gone (sort of), and we wanted to make sure we showed our love for the books that didn't make it on the podcast but definitely deserve a mention. 
Picture
Honorable Mention Highlights: February 2022
  • Speed Republic #1 (W: Ryan Lindsay; A: Emanuele Parascandolo)
  • Land of the Living Gods #1 (W: Isaac Mogajane; A/CA: Santtos)
  • The Killer: State of Affairs #1 (W: Matz; A/CA: Luc Jacamon)

Speed Republic #1
We've had a handful of race-based books in the past couple years, but none nearly as broody as this one. It's a post-capitalist society, where everything is controlled by corporations and we're all manipulated for their amusement... Bezos, please don't read this one. Cool?

Land of the Living Gods #1
A dead world, roving gangs, cybery, shiny ghosts, and a magical plant. This book is unique, charming and generally lovely. I am excited to see where the story goes and who gets wrapped into the mix. However, post-apocalyptic stories are a dime a dozen these days, so it can be a bit exhausting digging through another. I like this book, but I am very close to the end of my interest in the post-apocalypse.

The Killer: State of Affairs #1
An assassin holds down a 9 to 5 office job as a cover while working on a possible maybe coup plot. This book, while not necessarily groundbreaking or ultra exciting, is a pretty approachable action book told by a character whose perspective we don't often get: a more reserved, almost introverted cold-blooded killer.

What you may have missed in January! 

Already flying through the first month of the year, but not without highlighting some excellent titles we didn't have a chance to share during the show! Check out what you may have missed this past month below! 
Picture
Honorable Mention Highlights: January 2022
  • Bylines in Blood #1 (W: Van Jensen, Erica Schultz; A/CA: Aneke)
  • She Hulk #1 (W: Rainbow Rowell; A: Roge Antonia)
  • Batman/Catwoman Special #1 (W: Various; A: Various)

Bylines in Blood #1
A mystery circling around an independent news source willing to tell the truth. This book has extreme Jessica Jones vibes and presents a painfully relatable tale in a world too close to home for comfort; people record every moment of their lives, the truth has all but vanished as the elite invent facts to serve their purpose, and journalism as a career has effectively been eradicated. It's gritty, it's dark, I like it.

She Hulk #1
Jennifer Walters has been many things. Successful lawyer, savage monster, weird Blonde and Red Russian hit machine, my green-skinned crush for the last 30 years or so. Many hats worn by this lady with a new one being forced onto her head each time we see her. That pattern stays true in this book, which finds Jennifer humbled and having to start over since her stint as the Gamma blasting Hulk of the most recent Avengers team. She is hunble, grounded, and focused more on altruism than heroism. Could be a cool direction for her.

Batman/Catwoman Special #1This book is a fascinating look at Catwoman and Batman's growing relationship over a span of decades. It injects humanity into these bombastic characters much in the way Marvel's Life Story series do, while perfectly displaying just how complex Selena is as a character. It's also a nice memorial for John Paul Leon who tragically passed in May of 2021. Definitely worth a grab for Bat fans.

Honorable Mention Highlights: December 2021
  • Refuse x Last Resort Double Shot (W: Matt Kindt/A: Marguerite Sauvage; W: Mark Russell/A: Adam Pollina)
  • Gotham City Villains Anniversary Giant (W: Variety; A: Variety)
  • Buckhead #1 (w: Shobo, a: George Kambadais)
  • One-Star Squadron #1 (w: Mark Russell, a: Steve Lieber)
  • Lunar Room #1 (w: Danny Lore, a: Gio Sposito)
  • No Holds Bard #1 (w: Eric Gladstone, a: Gabrielle M. Kari)
  • Ms. Marvel: Beyond the Limit #1 (w: Samira Ahmed, a: Andres Genolet)
  • Apache Delivery Service #1 (w: Matt Kindt, a: Tyler Jenkins)
  • A King's Vengeance #1 (w: Peter Ricq & Davila LeBlanc, a: Peter Ricq)

Refuse x Last Resort Double Shot
One side is a beautiful, near-wordless journey of a woman utterly isolated and striving to get back to her world. The other side is a tongue-in-cheek exploration of how ridiculously exploitative capitalism is, and the complications of being surrounded by, well, yourself. It's a huge book being a double-shot and all, but definitely worth a pick-up.

Gotham City Villains Anniversary Giant
I don't have to say a whole lot about this book. You know why? Because the first story is by Danny DeVito, detailing how The Penguin and Catwoman fell in love, cured COVID-19, and saved the world. See, that's enough.

Buckhead #1
This book is zany, and fast, and honestly a little disorienting (but in a good way?). While many books struggle to gain speed in the first issue, this one feels almost like they put too much into the opening chapter, but with tech meeting ancient civilizations meeting an entertainingly diverse cast, I think I'm into it.

One-Star Squadron #1
If you aren't Batman or Tony Stark or Oliver Queen, it's unlikely your superhero-ing can serve as a moneymaking endeavor. That is, unless you team up with an agency that helps you live a secure life with a plan (and maybe a pension). I always appreciate a story talking about the mundane surrounded by the fantastic. And what's more mundane than paying taxes?

Lunar Room #1
I think this has a lot of potential to be a cool magical Neo-Noir story, but the first issue didnt entirely hook me. I like the world and the mystery thats building, but the characters were a smidge on the cliche side. Still, werewolves and magic in a gritty city underbelly, could appeal to the World of Darkness crowd and those adjacent.

No Holds Bard #1
SHAKESPEARE AS BATMAN. I love the concept of this, but the delivery is a bit ho hum. It is too aware of the joke instead of just letting the concept be funny on its own. Still, i had fun on the ride, even if there was an occasional eye roll in the mix.
​
Ms. Marvel: Beyond the Limit #1
I didn't know I needed Ms. Marvel to have her own Spider-esque web of multiverses - but now I do! Giving her a new story to help those unfamiliar get acquainted before her new show hits, I'm excited to see a very multi-faceted tale all about Kamala(s).

Apache Delivery Service #1
This book has a lot going for it - minimalist storytelling, an emotional time period and setting, a diverse cast with a broad experience, and evocative imagery. It's not a "nice" book, but it has potential to be an impactful one.

A King's Vengeance #1
​Tonally dark, ultra-violent Adventure Time. This book lays out a fairly basic concept and then delivers with some dope art and cool character design. Nifty book all around.

​What you may have missed in November!

The weather is cooling down, but the comics are still piping hot! We covered a lot, but there were still plenty of other comics this month that you should know about! 
Picture
Honorable Mention Highlights: November 2021
  • The Darks Knights of Steel #1 (w: Tom Taylor, a: Yasmine Putri)
  • A Thing Called Truth #1 (w: Iolanda Zanfardino, a: Elisa Romboli)
  • Knighted #1 (w: Gregg Hurwitz, a: Mark Texeira)
  • My Date with Monsters #1 (w: Paul Tobin, a: Andy McDonald)
  • Provenance of Secrets #1 (w: Kiyarn Taghan, a: Christian Dibari)
  • Good Boy #1 (w: Garrett Gunn & Christina Blanch, a: Kit Wallis)
  • Turkey Day One Shot (w: David C Hayes, Brian Dunphy, Dan Gorman, a: Dan Gorman)

​The Dark Knights of Steel #1
Remember when you were a kid playing make-believe and you'd merge together very different IPs to the point where suddenly Optimus Prime is driving Mario to the next castle? This is kind of like that. Suddenly you're in a fantasy setting, but still watching the same DC characters you'd expect in a big crossover. I think is most surprising is how well it works - well done, team, I definitely care about the princes after all.

A Thing Called Truth #1
Relatable, fun characters embroiled in a tale of misogyny and betrayal. This book is delightfully developed and honestly is a story unlike a lot of what's out there. It's realistic and grounded while building to an exciting thrust.
​
Knighted #1
What if Batman was a pervy jerk, got accidentally killed by a random loser, and then replaced by said random loser at the behest of "Alfred" (who absolutely hates Batman to begin with)? If that premise isn't enough to delight you, then just know that this book is incredibly clever and wonderfully cheeky. Sure, it's another "what if popular super hero but different" story, but it's got some fun twists and turns.

My Date with Monsters #1
What a fascinating concept for a book. Bad science leads to real nightmares, and the only way to avoid the apocalypse is for a very single mom to fall in love and build a stable family. Has it already built in some pretty predictable plot points? Yeah, but that doesn't take away from my investment in the very likeable characters. I'm excited to see how it all plays out.

Provenance of Secrets #1
Another day, another noir - but this time, our gumshoe is investigating a theater cult (that as a former theater kid, seems completely believable). Boldly black and white, with a swiftly unraveling mystery, this one has set up to be a very interesting read.

Good Boy #1
If you had told me I would one day read a comic book adaptation of John Wick where the dog lives and the person dies but it still turns into a bullet blasting blood bath, I would have told you to seek help. And yet, here we are. This book shines mainly for the novelty of the concept, but does have some fun art and tongue-in-cheek moments within to earn a mention.

Turkey Day One Shot
The perfect story for the holidays! It's got it all! Community. Family. History. Alien-possessed murder turkeys. If you like B-level horror movies, this book will be a fun ride for you. In the mix is also a nice bit of cheeky commentary on the problematic nature of the Thanksgiving story and the treatment of indigenous people in modern society. Oh, and also gore. Lots of gore.

​What you may have missed in October!

We covered a lot this month, but there were plenty of books from our weekly pull that never made made it into the podcast. Check out the highlights below!
Picture
Honorable Mention Highlights: October 2021
  • Soul Plumber #1 (w: Marcus Parks & Henry Zebrowski, a: John McCrea & PJ Holden)
  • Chicken Devil #1 (w: Brian Buccellato, a: Hayden Sherman)
  • Marvel Legends: Black Panther #1 (w: To hi Onyebuchi, a: Setor Fiadzigbey)
  • Batman: The Imposter #1 (w: Mattson Tomlin, a: Andrea Sorrentino)
  • Hellcop #1 (w/a: Brian Haberlin)
  • DC vs Vampires #1 (w: James Tynion & Matthew Rosenberg, a: Otto Schmidt)
  • Pop Star Assassin #1 (w: Ed Lavalles & Matt Cashel a: Marcelo Basile)
  • Cross to Bear #1 (w: Marko Stojanovic, a: Sinisa Banovic)
  • Winchester Mystery House #1 (w: Joshua Werner, a: Dustin Irvin)

​Soul Plumber #1

Goodness, this is an ugly book. If you are looking for a polite, clean, puritan reflection on the soul, run very, very far away. Soul Plumber is shockingly relatable beneath the layer of filth, and I'm rooting for the lead.

Chicken Devil #1
Oh my goodness, this book I just one big fiasco and I love. Hot chicken magnate gets involved in crimes because the world around him deems it. Why not? This is the least character driven book I've read, but I kind of love just watching this dude on a log flume of misery and guns. Also, they have a restaurant menu in the back and it looks damn tasty.
​
Marvel Legends: Black Panther #1 
Not much more to say aside from this is a cool look at young Tchalla earning his stripes (do panthers have stripes?) and showing his mobility in the face of a unaccepting world. This book handles heavy topics like racism and capitalism in a delicate way but still delivers a solid message. A great book for young readers.
​
Batman: The Imposter #1
A prequel/sequel to the new Batman movie? Hard to tell really, as it feels fairly originy but also seems to also reference movie things? Weird flex releasing a sequel to a movie that does not yet exist, but hey, that's DC. They flex more than an insecure, pre-workout addled Chad on a busy day at muscle beach. Still, I like the angle that they are taking with this Batman and this left me kinda jazzed for the movie. Not really a super new story, but still a nice level of grit.

Hellcop #1
What do you do when the veil between two realities is lifting and demons are co-mingling with humans on a regular basis? You create a new police force, obvi. Our main character is pretty predictable, but the world building keeps me intrigued enough to want to read more in issue #2. And that's really all it takes, isn't it?

DC vs Vampires #1
Well, hot damn Tynion, you're aiming for a Cover B fan club name, aren't you? The cheesiest of names gives way into an excellent, thought provoking book that not only makes sense in the given DC universe, but made me gasp unexpectedly at twists. I am definitely looking forward to the next issue of this one.

Pop Star Assassin #1
When I saw the title, this was NOT the book I was expecting to read. An Elvis impersonator, a waitress, and a psychic vagrant escape from a bar - be sure to stop me if you've heard this one. Oh, you haven't? I'm not surprised. This book is bonkers, but has a lot of potential if you like fast-paced, off-the-wall chaos.

Cross to Bear #1
...Are they Templars? Are they Masons? Is it a brand new cult we've never heard of? What is their real mission? What are they protecting... or who? I love a good secret society, and I love even more when our supposed protag is more fallible than forgivable. Who doesn't love some character depth, amiright?

Winchester Mystery House #1
You've heard the legends. You've probably even seen the movie. But there's something so eerie about the Winchester House that I'm glad it's being given a chance in the comic format. The ability to come from different perspectives, show more intimate details of the house's machinations - there's a lot that can be done here, and I'm very excited to see it go down.
