NEW for 02/01/23
What a time to be alive! This week sees the release of a book we are very, VERY hyped for, WHERE MONSTERS LIE #1 by Kyle Starks and Piotr Kowalski! We’ve gotten to read the first 3 issues of this series, and it’s a fast-paced, all-out action thrill ride that’s also really funny! Yes, it’s a horror book, but it’s a KYLE STARKS horror book, so you already know it’s great!!
There are many other wonderful books that deserve your attention this week, for sure, but you can find those while you’re here next week, we just want to make extra sure that WHERE MONSTERS LIE stays on your radar!! The rest is up to you!!
Team Absolute Kyle Starks 4L!!

•WHERE MONSTERES LIE #1 (Image)
The latest creator-owned series from I Hate this Place's KYLE STARKS! Haven't you always wondered what slasher monsters- the masked home invasion family, the mindless unkillable monster, the serial killer trapped in a doll- what they do for those couple of years in-between their murder sprees? They're at Wilmhurst-a gated community in the middle of nowhere where they relax- or try to- until they get the call to go out and kill again. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
—NEW COMICS OF NOTE—
•ALMIGHTY #1
The year is 2098 in a Third World America ravaged by economic collapse, anarcho-warfare, and a mysterious environmental disaster contained behind a massive wall. A girl has been abducted, and a killer has been hired to find her and bring her home. EDWARD LAROCHE returns to comics with a five-issue epic! Max Max: Fury Road-style action combines with the mutated horror of Annihilation in this original sci-fi/fantasy epic for mature readers.
•BATMAN LEGENDS OF GOTHAM #1
With Batman preoccupied, his deepest, darkest, most dangerous secrets are about to be auctioned off to the highest bidder. The guest list is strictly villains only, and the outlaw Red Hood fits the bill--putting him on a collision course with Batman's deniable black-ops team, the Outsiders!
•BLACK TAPE #1
Jack King was a rock'n'roll god who projected a stage
persona on par with the devil. After Jack dies on stage, his widow, Cindy, grapples with grief and struggles to protect his legacy, unaware that she is being surrounded by dark forces that covet the master tapes to Jack's final, unreleased album - a heavy metal masterpiece that just might open a doorway to hell.
•BLOOD TREE #1
Two obsessed NYPD detectives hunt for a vicious butcher called the Angel Killer, a sociopath who preys on the innocent family members of known murderers in order to "purify" the rest of society. From PETER J. TOMASI and MAXIM ŠIMI. Who must pay for the sins of the fathers-and perhaps even the sins of the mothers?
•BLOODLINE DAUGHTER OF BLADE 1
Brielle Brooks is a good kid, no matter what her teachers say - it's not her fault she's developing vampiric super-powers and the undead want to brawl! And as if problems at school aren't enough, Bri's got a wild ride ahead of her - she's about to discover that she's the daughter of the infamous vampire hunter and Daywalker known as BLADE! It's in her blood!!
•DC HARLEY QUINN ROMANCES #1
DC is proud to present a selection of eight stories of rapscallion romance, prodigious passion, and undulating, unbridled affection.
•DC POWER A CELEBRATION #1
It's time to celebrate Black History Month! Cyborg, John Stewart, Aqualad, Kid Flash, Batwing, Vixen, Amazing-Man, and more take center stage to highlight the power of Black excellence across the DC Universe, in stories from a variety of comics' finest Black artists and writers!
•DEMON WARS DOWN IN FLAMES 1
Things are heating up in Momoko's Marvel Universe! The spirit world is divided. Its inhabitants, strange creatures called yokai, have chosen sides, and the two factions are on the brink of all-out war. A bird-like yokai who wields some serious firepower faces off against a club-wielding demon. Mariko Yashida finds herself right in the middle of it. Don't miss the next installment of Peach Momoko's epic DEMON WARS saga!
•FLASH ONE-MINUTE WAR SPECIAL #1
A lot can happen in 60 seconds...as the Flash event One-Minute War rages on, writer Jeremy Adams gives you further insights into the alien speedster race that has invaded Central City, and how the Flash Family fights back!
•SILVER SURFER GHOST LIGHT 1
Toni Brooks and her family have moved into the quiet town of Sweetwater. But nothing is quite what it seems in their new home. What mystery did Toni and her family unravel that would call upon the Sentinel of the Spaceways - the Silver Surfer?! And just who, or what, is GHOST LIGHT? Eisner Award winner JOHN JENNINGS and artist VALENTINE DE LANDRO (Bitch Planet) introduce a new Marvel super hero over 50 years in the making!
•STAR WARS SANA STARROS 1
Fresh off of a string of disappointments, Sana Starros returns to her family's ancestral home for some downtime. But family time is far from relaxing for a scoundrel and her family of ne'er do wells, especially when Stormtroopers crash dinner? Watch as JUSTINA IRELAND and PERE PEREZ bring Sana Starros to new heights!
