After last week’s grand finale we’re back in the business of building suspense and business is booming!

For fans of sword and sorcery Barbaric is one of the best options currently on the market. Moreci and Gooden have been reliably delivering one great story (3 issues usually) every year, and Barbaric now boasts a rich fantasy world, a large cast of thoroughly entertaining characters, and all the blood and humor you could want.

So, you are still intrigued after the first two days of my time at PAX Unplugged? Let's not waste any time and get into what Day 2 of the convention brought for me! Day 2 Don't get me wrong, there were some games purchased on day 2 of PAX, but this day was set aside for playing a lot of games! The large group of us had our typical routine of grabbing breakfast down at the Home2 Suites while we tried to outline our plan of attack for the day. We eventually made it over to the

Hey Everyone, Welcome back, and sorry for the delay, life ya know. We've got picks from Mad Cave, Oni Press, Vertigo and AMP/CHISPA each comic is under $5 and the collections under $20. Check them out below.

Publisher: Invader Comics Release date: February 11th, 2026 Writer: David R. Flores and Jarod Hunter Roe Artist: David R. Flores Colorist: Lorenzo Scaramella Letterer: Letter Squids Editor: Barnett Brettler PRICE: $6.99 REVIEW Private investigator Randall Halsey could really use some friends to be there for him right now because it has definitely not been his day, his week, his month, or even his year. All he’s got instead is a missing young woman and enough cynicism to fill

The art is great. Really good character designs, lots of details. Tons of texture. There is not a wasted line in either book. If you like the comic art made famous at Image in the 90s, you will feel right at home here. If anything, its that style but with modern sensibilities and coloring.

2000 AD Prog 2469 Release date: February 11, 2026 Cover Artist: Mike Perkins Price: $2.99 digital, $5.49 print Subscription $10.99 Digital, $16.99 print subscription (4-5 issues a month) How about that cover by Mike Perkins! His work throughout this storyline has been beyond reproach and this is an especially delicious cherry on top. Somewhat reminiscent of Steve Ditko’s great “lifting sequence” from Amazing Spider-Man #33, way back in 1965, though more likely Atlas lifting t

Shin Zero is a book of combinations. It is French sci-fi cartooning and Japanese monster manga, slice-of-life meditation and high concept action-adventure, an entry in the 75-year-old tokusatsu genre and a profoundly modern story of gig-economy workers, and it is a synthesis of the talents of Mathieu Bablet and Guillaume Singelin, with Bablet writing and Singelin illustrating.

Two-fisted titanic team-ups abound in this truly twisted collection of Toxic Avenger tales, straight outta Tromaville, New Jersey! Having lived in New Jersey for 15 years now, I thought it was high time I let the Toxic Avenger into my life, especially with the tantalizing absurdity promised on the cover, and I am very glad I did.

Crowdfunding plays a significant role in tabletop gaming, as it is the driving force behind the creation of many games. There are numerous platforms, including Kickstarter, Gamefound, Backerkit, and more. These platforms help bring plenty of different ideas to life, but crowdfunding has been a staple for a lot of publishers over time to make sure that they don't overprint the game, don't lose money on the game, or simply know there is interest by the general community to play

Are you a middle-aged stoner who once D.A.R.E.d to Keep Kids Off Drugs?  Have you ever wished there was a Disney-level theme park solely dedicated to large semiaquatic mammals? Do you enjoy brightly colored comics full of action, comedy, and 70s buddy cop movie tropes?

And the hits keep on coming! And at breakneck speed no less, with a perfectly paced prog that leaves you waiting on pins and needles for the next drop!

Hey Everyone, Welcome back, we've got picks from Image, Iron Ace, and Papercutz each comic is under $5 and the collections under $20. Check them out below.

Welcome back to Spelunking the Solicits for the February Catalogs for books releasing in April 2026, where I pick 10 issues and 10 collections you might not have noticed are up for pre-order at your local comic shop or LCS for short.

Another week and another 2000 AD prog review! As the format of the weekly anthology series continues to sink its hooks in deep, and I find myself jonesing for the latest instalments from the mighty house of Tharg! Lock the door, unplug the phone, my stories are on!

Hey Everyone, Welcome back, we've got picks from Image, Iron Ace, and Papercutz each comic is under $5 and the collections under $20. Check them out below.

Nick Cagnetti’s art is absolutely electrifying, and lures you into the “book of the dead” narrative with a seemingly bottomless bag of visual tricks and delights. Combining the extra-dimensional dynamism of Jack Kirby, filtered through Mike Allred’s ginchy gloss, with a dash of Michael Avon Oeming or maybe Bruce Timm’s less-is-more stark cartooning, and Ditko-esque metaphysics.

Hey Everyone, Welcome Back. I'm excited to share my weekly comic and collection picks. We have some great comic under $5, some great collections under $20 from the indie publishers

Kristen Gudsnuk has such a uniquely witty approach to comics storytelling that I really gravitate toward. I was a huge fan of her series Henchgirl (TPB currently available through Dark Horse!) and I’m thrilled to have a new book from her to look forward to each month. If you’ve never checked out her stuff before, Touched by a Demon is a perfect potion of humor and horror to get you started.

Writer Sophie Campbell does a stellar job with what she’s given here, using a second-tier monster first as background to tragedy, and then as vehicle for redemption for twin sisters Emi and Mira, who are separated as children in a battle between Mothra and Antra.
