"There is very simply nothing like Coffin Bound on this Earth."

Oblivion Song is a strong examination of love and loss, trauma and moving on

A man who will do anything to save his sick son, the depths he will sink to in his pursuit, and the mystical forces that enable him.

"If you like high-octane adventure, sci-fi/fantasy, or just interesting takes on world-building, Protector is worth a look."

"Limbo drips with style and swagger..."

A mystery around the past and identity of two men, potentially tied to cult activities and an end-of-the-world prophecy.

"It might gross you out, it might make you cry, and it might make you question your own sense of self."

"Izzy's fresh off her first confrontation with the big-bad and bound for failure, even as she tries to make past sins right."

Filled with action and badass women, Pretty Deadly is truly enjoyable storytelling that should be at the top of your "To Read" pile.

"It'll burn inside you, until there's nothing left but happy ashes."

A strong female lead, a ticking clock, a road trip and an impossible task ahead.

It's so much worse than we thought.

Writer: Darcy Van Poelgeest Illustrator: Ian Bertram Publisher: Image Comics WHAT IS IT? The third issue in a new dystopian science fiction 5-issue miniseries about a young girl who sets out to save the world against an evil, hyper-religious army of American invaders. It feels a little like The Handmaid's Tale politically, but there are so many surreal elements and war themes that take it in a darkly science fiction territory. Check out my review of the first issue over at Mu

Writer: Darcy Van Poelgeest Illustrator: Ian Bertram Publisher: Image Comics WHAT IS IT? The second issue in a new dystopian science fiction series about a young girl who sets out to save the world against an evil, hyper-religious army of American invaders. It feels a little like The Handmaid's Tale politically, but there are many surreal elements that make it fresh and new and interesting. Check out my review of the first issue over at Multiversity Comics! WHAT’S IT ABOUT? (

Writers: Joseph Keatinge Illustrator: Wook Jin Clark Publisher: Image Comics WHAT IS IT? A culinary fantasy tale where chefs are celebrities and there's a great chasm between the Haves and the Have-Nots. Everything takes place within this one city, but it has the animation and world-building feel of a Miyazaki film. Just, you know, food themed! WHAT'S IT ABOUT? (Minor Spoilers) Xoo is a young, unregistered chef. She should be going to school, but her parents are disabled and

Writer: Brenden Fletcher & Karl Kerschl Illustrator: Karl Kerschl Publisher: Image Comics WHAT IS IT? A tale of adventure, magic and fantasy that instantly feels like a timeless classic. If you're a fan of Miyazaki's films, like Princess Mononoke or Spirited Away, you will love this comic. But there's also an undercurrent of Don Quixote just behind the adventure and magic -- a worry that the quest these characters are on is one they'll never complete. WHAT’S IT ABOUT? (Minor

Writer: Jeff Lemire Illustrator: Andrea Sorrentino Publisher: Image Comics WHAT IS IT? Every few years, a black barn appears in a small town, causing chaos, bloodshed and misery. Not everyone can see it, but those who can are haunted by it. It's happening again. No one is safe. Gideon Falls is a horror comic that touches on mental illness and (potentially, since it's still early) religion through local mythos and one unreliable narrator. It's dark, fascinating and stylish, a

Writer: Ram V Art: Devmalya Pramanik Publisher: Image Comics WHAT IS IT? An apocalyptic/post-apocalyptic tale of the remnants of humanity and the only city still capable of sheltering humanity. But the city may have a mind of its own... Imagine the civilization in Blade Runner collapsed, leaving only a Mad Max/Maze Runner hybrid in its place. It also feels a lot like Westworld in its scope, mystery and contrast of barren wasteland with technological wonder. WHAT'S IT ABOUT? (

Writer: Robert Kirkman Illustrator: Cory Walker Publisher: Image Comics WHAT IS IT? The first volume of an epic superhero tale told over 24 volumes and 14 years. Robert Kirkman (of The Walking Dead fame) writes it, and because it was published by Image, not Marvel or DC, he and his creative partners go to tell their story, their way. It’s like Smallville meets Chris Claremont’s X-Men comics run: it’s bright and bold, and you get to see how the characters grow and change over

Writer: Warren Ellis Illustrator: Declan Shalvey Publisher: Image Comics WHAT IS IT? A dark crossroads of science and fantasy steeped in an anxiety about the future. This is a story about how 5 crazy geniuses tried to help the future, ended up doing a massive amount of harm to it instead, and tried to do damage control. Imagine Fringe mixed with House, M.D., where the 5 main characters in the comic are all Dr. House. Now, imagine if that targeted an academic audience instead
