Hello, all--

Quick schedule notice: next Sunday, April 16 is Easter-- and we’ll be OPEN regular hours!

FREE COMIC BOOK DAY is fast approaching! It’s on SATURDAY, MAY 6th, and it’s our biggest day of the year! If you’ve never been, you’re in for a treat. Big sales everywhere, great free comics from the best publishers, and an all-around good time! Plan to attend!

LAST CALL! Subscribers, this section is for YOU! You help us determine how many of every book we order, and the more info we can get from you the better a job we can do. Please take a look at these titles shipping Wednesday, May 3rd, and let us know which ones you’d like to check out!
PREDATOR HUNTERS (Dark Horse) In a bit of an oblique, the Predators turn their hunting skills to chasing the lowest prices they can… and find bargains to perhaps be the most elusive prey of all.
PredatorHunters1.jpg
BANE: CONQUEST (DC) The original creators of Bane return to the character for a 12 issue run in which bane tries to topple criminal empires to become the new King.
baneconquest1.jpg
INJUSTICE 2 (DC) Now featuring TWICE the injustice! So much!
Injustice2.1.jpg
JUDGE DREDD: BLESSED EARTH (IDW) 10 years have passed since Mega City Zero… looks very post-apocalyptic!
JUDGEDREDD1.jpg
MICRONAUTS: WRATH OF KARZA (IDW) When I was a kid, I thought Micronauts villain Baron Karza was cooler than Darth Vader and Doctor Doom combined. I wonder what he’s so dang mad about in this?
Micronauts_karza.jpg
ETERNAL EMPIRE (Image) From the creators of Alex + Ada comes a new big fantasy epic!
EternalEmpire.jpg
YOUNGBLOOD (Image) The ol’ gang returns, looking very stylish with a brand new creative team of upstarts!
YOUNGBLOOD1.jpg
ALL NEW GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY (Marvel) Looking more like the movie cast more than ever, and brought to you by Gerry Duggan and the great Aaron Kuder!
AllNewGotG1.jpg
BLACK BOLT (Marvel) This one looks good, but I’m biased b/c Black Bolt is one of my favorite characters ever. And he’s stuck in a space prison in this one! Cool beans.
BlackBolt1.jpg
GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY: MISSION BREAKOUT (Marvel) I’m putting this on here to inform you this one-shot will be PRE-ORDER ONLY. If you want it, you gotta tell us now.
GOTGMISSION.jpg
GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY: MOTHER ENTROPY (Marvel) About the ONLY way Marvel could get me excited about a THIRD Guardians book coming out in the same week would be to have Jim Starlin write it and Alan Davis draw it. Well done, Marvel.
gOTgmOTHER.jpg
JEAN GREY (Marvel) Now front and center, and desperately trying not to become Phoenix.
JEANGREY.jpg
SECRET EMPIRE (Marvel) The latest interconnected Marvel event has Captain America enacting his secret evil HYDRA plan.  
SecretEmpire.jpg
PESTILENCE (Aftershock) Mmmmaybe the Black Plague was actually the first zombie epidemic, covered up by the church?
Pestilence.jpg
PROJECT SUPERPOWERS: HEROKILLERS (D.E.) Putting top notch talent like writer Ryan Browne & artist Pete Woods is the key to succeed with these open-use golden age characters.
ProjectSP.jpg
THE DAMNED (Oni Press) Cullen Bunn and Brian Hurtt bring back my favorite property they’ve ever done, this demon tinged noir! Man, it’s good.
DAMNED.jpg
LITTLE NIGHTMARES (Titan) I guess this is a hotly anticipated video game?
LITTLENIGHTMARES.jpg
TEKKEN (Titan) The kids love Tekken, right?
TEKKEN.jpg
CATALYST PRIME: NOBLE (Lion Forge) Upstart publisher is getting into the connected superhero universe game! Time will tell if that is hubris or genius. But they look pretty good! A missing astronaut returns to Earth with powers and no memory. Good start.
