UPCOMING RELEASES for 02/18/26
I don't think we can over-emphasize how good END OF LIFE #1 is. We do tend to always like books by KYLE STARKS, and this comic is no exception. It may, in fact, be the best book he's written (yet)!! Plus, he's back with his PEACEMAKER TRIES HARD collaborator STEVE PUGH who is doing the best work of his storied career! DON'T MISS THIS BOOK!! What's it about? See below!
Plus, Marvel sows more seeds for their upcoming summer crossover 'ARMAGEDDON' with the CHIP ZDARSKY-written WOLVERINE WEAPONS OF AMRAGEDDON #1!
Also, IT'S JEFF MEETS DAREDEVIL; the Muppets get hardboiled in MUPPETS NOIR #1; Headlopper's ANDREW MACLEAN and Space Rider's ALEXIS ZIRITT unite for DEATH FIGHT FOREVER #1; Wolverine and Honey Badger get their own book with GENERATION X-23 #1; and so much more!
----------
NEW BOOKS OF NOTE
----------
END OF LIFE #1
Kyle Starks and Steve Pugh, the team behind Peacemaker Tries Hard!, present the story of a man-child assassin with some very grown-up problems. Professional hitman Eddie Stallion has messed up. Now with a price on his head, Eddie chooses to hide in the one place everyone knows he'd never go... the small midwestern town of Pluto, home of his estranged hard-ass father. Looking for safe harbor, Eddie instead finds his resentful father dying of cancer, old friends looking to collect that bounty, assassins who have wandered into town, a cancelled newspaper comic-strip creator turned local crime lord, and oh yeah, his childhood first love, too. HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!!
--------------------------------
WOLVERINE WEAPONS OF AMRAGEDDON #1
Chip Zdarsky and Luca Maresca kick off a game-changing new saga! When an old acquaintance drags Logan into the search for a new abducted mutant subject, the terrifying methods of the defunct Weapon X program are revealed to be alive and well. As Wolverine follows the scent of the feral Tyler he finds himself in a deadly race against a super-soldier-creating corporation called PRIMEWARRIOR... which has just hired a very familiar face: the fully armed and upgraded NUKE!
--------------------------------
DEATH FIGHT FOREVER #1
Super-thief bruiser brothers, Crash and Bash Biggle, jump into action to help Commander Thunderfang fight inter-dimensional crime boss, Lord Slyther. But a run-in with Marla Mendoza, leader of the COPZ gang and Slyther's most formidable loyalist, changes the course of Bash's life forever. An all-new action/comedy from ANDREW MACLEAN (HEAD LOPPER) and ALEXIS ZIRITT (SPACE RIDERS).
--------------------------------
IT'S JEFF MEETS DAREDEVIL #1
In this special new story from star Jeff team Kelly Thompson and Gurihiru, Jeff the Land Shark learns the meaning of courage from THE MAN WITHOUT FEAR! Plus, don't miss what happens when Jeff wins the lottery, goes to the groomer, and best of all... TAKES ON THE HULK!
--------------------------------
MUPPETS NOIR #1
Legendary cartooning talent and Muppets comics veteran ROGER LANGRIDGE bellies up to the drawing table once more for an all-new tale of crime and pun-ishment with The Muppets Noir #1 — featuring clue-filled cover art from both the author and guest artist DECLAN SHALVEY!
--------------------------------
GENERATION X-23 #1
LAURA KINNEY was brainwashed and trained from birth to be the ultimate assassin as X-23. When LAURA and her sister GABBY (Honey Badger) encounter someone who seems to be their LONG-LOST FRIEND, the harrowing plot they uncover will turn their worlds upside down. The next generation of X-subjects is here, and they follow in the deadly footsteps of X-23!
--------------------------------
SMILE FOR THE CAMERA #1

Get ready to smile like you mean it.
--------------------------------
WHITE SKY #1
Five years ago, the sky turned white, and the world ended. Violet and her father, David, are forced out of hiding and flee toward the ruins of San Francisco, where they believe they’ll be safe. But in this haunted world ruled by ghosts, no place is safe.
