UPCOMING RELEASES FOR 10/09/24
What's left is... ABSOLUTE.
We love comics. You know that, right? And we love to CHAMPION comics. Every week. Every week we pick out the books that we think you'll really like, and we also try to make you aware of books you may not have heard about. But every once in a while a book comes along that just knocks our socks off, and this week it happened.
ABSOLUTE BATMAN #1 by Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta is Excellent. Honestly, we weren't all that excited for another Batman book, and another Scott Snyder Batman book at that. But for real, this book is incredible. It's unlike any Batman you've read before. We love it so much that we're dusting off our "OR YOUR MONEY BACK" guarantee!
We love it so much that we're not even bothering to talk about any other New Releases in this part of the listings.

TERMINATOR #1
Written by DECLAN SHALVEY (ThunderCats, Old Dog)! The plans to kill Sarah Connor and her son John have failed, but the genocidal Skynet isn't out of options yet. There are still a few more avenues into the past that will allow it to destroy the human resistance that is poised to smash its processors into silicon shrapnel - it just needs to expand its theater of operations.
DAY OF THE DEAD GIRL #1
Written by AJ MENDEZ & AIMEE GARCIA! Death is never the end of the story. Coroner Sam Castillo will learn this the hard way, when a supernatural serial killer targets her hometown just as she moves back. A skeptical woman of science, Sam butts heads with her spiritual mother Ana, a leader of a witch coven specializing in Brujeria. But when the coven's Brujas start turning up murdered, Sam and Ana must work together to find the killer. As if sharing a bathroom with her mom wasn't hard enough.
SENTINELS #1
The original Sentinel Program was human supremacy and fear coded into circuitry. But now their legacy falls into the hands of mutantkind! Powered by cutting-edge nanotech, this new generation of Sentinels protects a fragile peace between mutants and humans. But when being a Sentinel is your job - your life - is it possible to stay human? Mount up as Alex Paknadel (CARNAGE) and Justin Mason (SPIDER-PUNK) bring you a brand-new team of heroes that will take on the most heinous mutants!
BATMAN FULL MOON #1
An ancient and supernatural force stalks the streets of Gotham City--a Lycan so powerful it'll defy Batman's most trusted resources: his brilliant mind and extensive gadgetry. But are Batman's physical strength and resilience alone enough to put the creature down for good? Or will this fight strip him down to his very bones? Each issue of this series will boast striking glow-in-the-dark main covers!
BLADE RED BAND #1
For years, BLADE has been the deadliest vampire hunter in the Marvel Universe! With an arsenal of wooden stakes, silver bullets and razor bats at his command, few have known the taste of vengeance and blood like BLADE! But after the harrowing events of BLOOD HUNT, what's left of Marvel's most infamous vampire? Did any of the vampire within Blade survive? Did any of the man?
GREEN LANTERN CIVIL CORPS #1
