NEW BOOKS OF NOTE
----------
NEW GODS #1
An old god has died, setting forth the soldiers of an intergalactic army and awakening the latent powers of a mysterious child on Earth. But this has all been foreseen. Now, as Metron brings word of this cosmos-shattering prediction to the residents of New Genesis and Apokolips, both worlds are thrown into chaos and conflict. On Earth, Scott Free and Barda find themselves unaware of this incoming chaos while consumed with their most daunting task yet: parenthood. Ram V and Evan Cagle bring the Fourth World to a whole new generation in this epic of cosmic proportions!
CHALLENGERS OF THE UNKNOWN #1
The terror of the Darkseid shockwave has cascaded across the DC Universe! Only one band of super-scientists have the right stuff to challenge the fate of a universe... THE CHALLENGERS OF THE UNKNOWN. Alongside Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman they must seal the rifts that threaten the galaxy. But a mysterious foe from the Challengers' past lurks in the shadows, and its connection to the godshock will put the DCU on borrowed time!
FREDDIE THE FIX #1
Hollywood After Dark — werewolves, vampires, zombies, aliens, bogeymen, predators, and... things. They all have their kinks, and they all get in deep shit. They all call Freddie... to fix it. A twisted horror tale from Garth Ennis and Mike Perkins! The horror-skewed intersection of The Boys and Ray Donovan.
HELLVERINE #1
The demon BAGRA-GHUL possessed WOLVERINE, turning him into a killing machine... but LOGAN is no stranger to caging the beast within his soul, and the demon learned his heroic ways. Now it's resurrected AKIHIRO (the former DAKEN), and the two must learn to live as one-the HELLVERINE! But they can't do it alone... Enter: DOCTOR STRANGE!
MOTHERFU@KIN MONSTERS #1 (HORIZON)
Esteemed TV writer J. Holtham (Emmy-winning The Handmaid's Tale, Marvel's Jessica Jones) and white-hot indie cartoonist Michael Lee Harris (Black Hitler, Choco Leche) present an Evil Dead for black nerds-a modern spin on the action-packed horror comedy for fans of Bitter Root and Chew.
TVA #1
The Time Variance Authority has long watched over the timeline, protecting it from dangerous variations that could cause the end of EVERYTHING. Now, as the organization begins to expand its tolerance of variants, it's enlisted some new recruits from timelines that have been wiped from existence: Captain Peggy Carter, Super-Soldier of her world; Gambit, despondent and aimless from the loss of his lady love; and... Spider-Gwen?!? Has her world been destroyed?!? By Katharyn Blair (LOKI Season Two) and artist Pere Pérez!
CITY BENEATH HER FEET #1*
A bloody love letter to New York City, The City Beneath Her Feet is an action/thriller love story for a new generation by lauded creators James Tynion IV and Elsa Charretier. Jasper Jayne was the girl of Zara's dreams, but their brief relationship came and went in such an intense blaze that Zara was left thinking Jasper was just that... a dream. Years later, Zara is thrust back into Jasper's world -- unknowingly listed as her emergency contact, Zara must piece together the mystery of Jasper's life, all while being hunted by the assassins who once called Jasper one of their own.
WARM FUSION #1*
Scott Hoffman of Scissor Sisters fame teams up with artist Alberto Ponticelli for a sci-fi/horror mystery that pushes the limits of the grotesque. New York City, over two decades into the future, has been devastated by crime, ongoing storms, radiation from a terrorist incident in Times Square and the genetic mutations caused by a life-saving "cure." After a series of murders rip through the city's brothels, an escort named Vin Young, who cosplays as Snow White- and is one of the generation of deformed victims - decides to help find the killer, or killers, responsible.
