NEW BOOKS OF NOTE
----------

WHERE MONSTERS LIE CULL-DE-SAC #1
The hit meta-horror comedy by Eisner-nominated writer Kyle Starks returns just in time for Halloween! Come join us, friends, for it's time to visit another gated community for slashers and meet a new cast of horrible monsters as we return to the world of Where Monsters Lie. Connor Hayes, final girl turned apex monster hunter, has been brought to Site B and expected to be a good little killer, but will he cooperate? And what sort of bone-tingling secrets inhabit this new horror hamlet? SO GOOD!!!!


BATMAN AND ROBIN YEAR ONE #1
REUNITING THE ACCLAIMED TEAM OF MARK WAID AND CHRIS SAMNEE! While Bruce Wayne adjusts to the realities of adopting orphan Dick Grayson, a mysterious new crime boss called the General has come to Gotham to claim the city by disrupting and destroying its other mobs. But what is his connection to Two-Face? Batman and his new sidekick, Robin, are out for answers, but it'll take everything they have to navigate both sides of their relationship as father and son and dynamic duo!


MYSTIQUE #1
Reminding the world to hate and fear her! How do you track a subject with a history that contradicts itself? How do you stop a force whose motives change like quicksilver? How do you stop a target that can be anyone? That's the question that confronts Nick Fury as he stumbles upon a web of lies and espionage leading back to Mystique. From award-winning creator Declan Shalvey!


VICARIOUS #1
Justin. an aimless 20- something desperate for human connection and excitement, finds just what he's looking for in the secret world of Proxies-young, pretty, ambitious hustlers like himself who allow the rich access to their feelings and experiences through a technological implant.


MOON KNIGHT FIST OF KHONSHU #1
This solicitation is terrible, but the ongoing Moon Knight comic, which this is the latest incarnation of, is very good. "As an avatar and agent of the Egyptian God of the Moon, Khonshu, former mercenary MARC SPECTOR has died and come back to life on more than one occasion. To the ignorant, his fate beyond death's grasp may seem idyllic, but being chosen as a Fist of Khonshu comes with a heavy cost! And, like bones in a street fight, Marc Spector, and the multitudes he contains, may be about to break!"


CRYPT OF SHADOWS #1
The heroes of the Marvel Universe spend most of their time in the bright sun, flying high above it all...but every once in a while, they venture into the darkness that lurks in the hidden corners of the world. There lurk the creatures, the monsters, the vampires...the ones who prey on innocence and goodness. Join us, and some of your favorite heroes, for tales of fangs, claws and silent, stalking swamp creatures to celebrate All Hallows' Eve! BOO!! Ha! Scared ya!!


DEF LEPPARD HYSTERIA #0
The origin of the world's most dangerous guitar! Written by Phil Collen (Def Leppard) and Eliot Rahal (Bleed Them Dry) with art by Alex Schlitz and Fabi Marques. When Foz, the frontwoman of indie band Darkside, inherits her father's estate, it comes with a guitar she half-remembers from her childhood. The guitar speaks to her, promising fame and success. Soon, it delivers. But when Darkside's equipment is stolen at a massive music venue, Foz goes on the warpath to get it back.


EXORCISM AT 1600 PENN #1
From the pen of rising comics writer Hannah Rose May and acclaimed artist Vanesa Del Rey. Kelly Doyle has just been elected the first woman president of the United States of America, and boiling political tension could spill over at any second. Having to balance being a mother to two teenagers and navigating the shifting media landscape, all while preventing World War III, has Kelly spread thin, but she could never predict that the nation's hallowed halls would soon become a demonic battleground!


GODFATHER OF HELL #1
Dario Santini has lived a charmed life as an enforcer and debt collector for mob boss Niccolò Mechini. He's had it all: respect, power, even the love of a good woman. But everything changes when he crosses a line and is shot dead on the sidewalk. Waking up in Hell, Dario faces a future of pain and suffering... unless he can turn eternal damnation into a business opportunity. Neo-noir hellfire!


JUPITER'S LEGACY FINALE #1
The superheroes have been trapped and murdered on an alien world while the enemies of Earth, who have been watching our planet with envious eyes, launch their invasion now there's no-one to protect it. The return of Mark Millar and Frank Quitely's series for an epic and shocking finale! Just, you know, without Frank Quitely on art. But Tommy Lee Edwards is real good!
