LAST DRIVER #1
AMERICA, THE NOT TOO DISTANT FUTURE — NO ONE KNOWS HOW TO DRIVE... EXCEPT FOR HIM! As technology in America advanced, cities began creating the GRID — a robotic transportation system that not only made cars obsolete, it made them illegal. But an outlaw named “Clutch” has no choice but to get behind the wheel one more time. What starts out as a race to save his granddaughter's life quickly turns into a rebellion against technology, fascism, and the future of a divided America. SEAN GORDON MURPHY writes and draws.

BUG WARS COMIG OF WARDOOM #1
Superstar creators JASON AARON & MAHMUD ASRAR return to the savage suburban epic that feeds Honey, I Shrunk the Kids through a war grinder and marinates it in Conan-flavored myth and mayhem. Six months after the Yard ran red with insect blood, uneasy peace is shattered as ancient enemies rise from the Woods, corporate extermination forces close in, and Slade Slaymaker is dragged back into a brutal world where roach knights ride, squirrel armies gather, and survival means choosing your side in a war no human was meant to fight.
--------------------
WHAT IF...? THE RUNAWAYS
WHAT IF... THE RUNAWAYS HADN'T RUN AWAY? Every year, a group of philanthropists gather for a charitable fundraiser... or so their children Alex Wilder, Chase Stein, Gertrude Yorkes, Karolina Dean, Molly Hayes and Nico Minoru thought. When they discover their parents form the Pride, a sinister, sacrificial group that answers to a godly race called the Gibborim , the teens are terrified, shocked and... intrigued? Their destiny awaits, and there's no running away.
--------------------
LAZARUS ORDER #1
In a medieval world where illness can lead to horrific and monstrous transformation, the Lazarus Order is mankind's final bastion, preventing uncontrollable chaos. Devout plague doctors have sacrificed their freedom in an oath to God, in exchange for supernatural abilities, but the more they their powers, the more it consumes them until they fade to nothing. Despite this sacrifice, they protect humanity from vampires, werewolves, Rattusvir (Rat-man disease), the undead, and other variants of “The First Sickness.”
--------------------
SPIDER-MAN/HULK FIRE BRIMSTONE #1
THWIP-SMASH! Legendary writers KEVIN SMITH and ANDY McELFRESH team up with superstar artist R.B. SILVA for the newest high-octane adventure for Spider-Man and Hulk! It's nonstop action! Side-splitting quips! And... the exorcism of Bruce Banner?!
