CHALLENGERS CHOICES OF THE WEEK
----------
TRANSFORMERS #1
Superstar creator DANIEL WARREN JOHNSON reimagines Hasbro's robots in disguise for a brand-new generation. Optimus Prime was supposed to have led the Autobots to victory. Instead, the fate of Cybertron is unknown, and his allies have crash-landed far from home, alongside their enemies-the Decepticons. As these titanic forces renew their war on Earth, one thing is immediately clear: the planet will never be the same.
G.O.D.S. #1
JONATHAN HICKMAN RE-INVENTS THE COSMOLOGY OF THE MARVEL UNIVERSE! The infinite détente between THE-NATURAL-ORDER-OF-THINGS and THE-POWERS-THAT-BE nears an end. Old acquaintances are reunited during a Babylon Event. The Lion of Wolves throws the worst parties. This ENORMOUS EXTRA-SIZED first issue also features DOCTOR STRANGE, who, while not boring at all, is easily the most boring person in the book.
MIDNITE SHOW #1
From the creators of The Sixth Gun and Manor Black! Basil Saxon is a legend among horror fans. Over fifty years ago, he vanished during a freak accident on the set of the film that would have been his masterpiece. The cursed film was never completed nor even seen. But when a film festival shows footage from it, classic horror monsters manifest to wreak havoc and terror on the unsuspecting populace. A ragtag group of misfits must band together to stop the most famous creatures of all time and send them back to the realm of celluloid nightmares.
LOCAL MAN VOL 01 HEARTLAND
STRAY DOGS creator TONY FLEECS teams with REVIVAL's TIM SEELEY! Once, JACK XAVER, star recruit of the media sensation super-team THIRD GEN, had it all. But when controversy sends CROSSJACK crawling back to his mom and dad's basement in the Midwest, Jack struggles to fit into a world he left far behind. And then the bodies start piling up. Collects the complete first arc of the smash-hit series that Comicbook.com calls "a thought-provoking send-up to one of comics' weirdest eras, and if you're not reading it right now, you are absolutely missing out." Comes with an Exclusive Challengers Bookplate!!
WHERE MONSTERS LIE
Haven't you always wondered what slasher monsters 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. Connor Hayes survived his first slasher in summer camp. A handful of years later he barely escaped a psychopath who built torture puzzles for his victims. Since then he's been training and planning for running into these creatures again. He's a respected special agent. And now he knows where the monsters lie and he's planning for war.
PARASOCIAL HC
In the middle of the pandemic, a fading genre-TV actor, fresh from his long-running series' cancellation, collides with an obsessive fan at a Texas convention. When she lures him to her home, he'll have to put on the greatest performance of his life simply to survive until morning. Unless, of course, he's the real monster... ALEX DE CAMPI and ERICA HENDERSON (DRACULA, MOTHERF**KER!) reunite for another stylish horror reinterpretation-this time the psychosexual thriller.
MONICA HC
This long-awaited new graphic novel from Daniel Clowes (Ghost World and Patience) is a genre-bending thriller from one of the most assured storytellers of all time. Monica is a series of interconnected narratives that collectively tell the life story - actually, stories - of its title character. Clowes calls upon a lifetime of inspiration to create the most complex and personal graphic novel of his distinguished career.
