This is THE week for great new titles! THE GOOD ASIAN is as good of a detective series as INFIDEL was a horror series, and Infidel is a GREAT horror series!!
Also, MARJORIE FINNEGAN TEMPORAL CRIMINAL #1 is a super-fun Garth Ennis time travel romp and is as ludicrous as you’d expect from a Garth Ennis time travel romp!
Marvel’s summer event HEROES REBORN starts with a world in which the Avengers were never formed and the Squadron Supreme are Earth’s mightiest heroes!
Plus, War of the Bounty Hunters, a full line Star Wars crossover starts now, KAIJUMAX returns for its final arc, and there’s a brand new BAD IDEA one shot, Whalesville.
Whew!! We hope your wallet is ready for this week!

     —HIGHLY RECOMMENDED—
•GOOD ASIAN #1
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Writer PORNSAK PICHETSHOTE's long-awaited follow-up to the critically acclaimed INFIDEL with stunning art by ALEXANDRE TEFENKGI (OUTPOST ZERO)! Following Edison Hark-a haunted, self-loathing Chinese-American detective-on the trail of a killer in 1936 Chinatown, THE GOOD ASIAN is Chinatown noir starring the first generation of Americans to come of age under an immigration ban, the Chinese, as they're besieged by rampant murders, abusive police, and a world that seemingly never changes.
•MARJORIE FINNEGAN TEMPORAL CRIMINAL #1
She's Marjorie Finnegan. She's a temporal criminal. What more do you need to know? Oh, all right then: all Marj wants to do is race up and down the time-lanes, stealing every shiny-gleamy-pretty-sparkly she can lay her hands on. But her larcenous trail from the Big Bang to the Ninety-fifth Reich has drawn the beady eye of the Temporal PD, whose number one Deputy Marshall is now hard on our heroine's tail - and taking things extremely personally. Worse still, Marj's worthless creep of an ex and his even scummier partner have seen an angle of their own in all this, and now intend to use her time-tech to change history for their own benefit. Marj's only ally? A guy called Tim. And he's just a head. I mean come on, what use is just a head...?!
•HEROES REBORN #1
Welcome to a world where Tony Stark never built an Iron Man armor. Where Thor is a hard-drinking atheist who despises hammers. Where Wakanda is dismissed as a myth. And where Captain America was never found in the ice because there were no Avengers to find him. Instead this world has always been protected by Earth's Mightiest Heroes, the Squadron Supreme of America. And now the Squadron faces an attack from some of their fiercest enemies, like Dr. Juggernaut, the Black Skull, the Silver Witch and Thanos with his Infinity Rings. But why is the Daywalker Blade the one man alive who seems to remember that the entire world has somehow been...reborn?

     —NEW BOOKS OF NOTE—
•KAIJUMAX SEASON 6 #1
From across the galaxy, a terrifying alliance of alien warships enters our atmosphere. Luckily for the Earth's human leaders, they have a prison full of monsters (whose lives they don't give a damn about) that they can strong-arm, blackmail, and guilt-trip into battling for free. Inmates of both Kaijumax prisons suit up for the filthy, dangerous work of digging radioactivity lines, dropping saucer-retardant liquid, and proactively destroying small cities before the aliens can, all in a bid to lessen their sentences.
•STAR WARS WAR BOUNTY HUNTERS ALPHA #1
The notorious bounty hunter BOBA FETT has finally landed his greatest prize - HAN SOLO, frozen in carbonite for easy transport. Fett will bring the smuggler to TATOOINE to collect the massive bounty placed on Solo's head by the fearsome crime lord JABBA THE HUTT. Sounds easy. What could go wrong?
•WHALESVILLE X ROCKS AND MINERALS #1
A Bad Idea comic one shot. When young Wawae thrown overboard and swallowed whole by a whale, he didn’t expect to find inside the town of “Whalesville” – a colorful, cobbled-together village inhabited by an astounding collection of talking sea creatures. Whalesville isn’t just their home, it’s the whole world – and they don't understand the danger that now pursues them from above the waves or that they are even inside a whale at all.
•EVE #1
When the ice caps melted, most of humanity was lost to the hidden disease that was released. Now, a mysterious girl named Eve has awoken in secret and must deal with a world that's nothing like the virtual reality she was raised in. In order to save her real father, Eve must embark on a deadly quest across the country, but she has no idea of the threats that await her - or the price she will pay to restore life to a dying planet...
•INVINCIBLE RED SONJA #1
Written by the award-winning fan favorites AMANDA CONNER and JIMMY PALMIOTTI, Red Sonja finds herself on a spectacular journey filled with pirates, mermaids, princesses, and political intrigue as the threat of two kingdoms hangs in the balance. All this, plus the spectacular art of MORITAT and a cover by AMANDA CONNER and PAUL MOUNTS makes THE INVINCIBLE RED SONJA a series not to be missed! In fact it's so great, we had to launch a whole new title for it!
•EDEN ONE SHOT
Tattoo artist Niles lives his life in a kind of daze. Minute after minute, he muddles through the repetitive moments of his job, his life and his guilt. All that changes when Eden walks through the doors of the tattoo shop. She's looking for something...different...and she finds it with Niles. But Eden is a woman surrounded by deep mysteries...not the least of which is how and why her new tattoos vanish after only a few days. As Niles learns more about Eden, he is driven to fathomless depths of both love and horror.
