From the Solicits:

 NEW STORY ARC

The Groundskeeper’s job is to keep order in the playing field. Killers must be kept in bounds, and civilians under control. But the survivors of Oak Valley have no intention of making the Groundkeeper’s job easy… TYLER BOSS (YOU’LL DO BAD THINGS) and VALENTINE DE LANDRO (BITCH PLANET) rejoin JAMES TYNION IV (THE DEPARTMENT OF TRUTH, W0RLDTR33) and MICHAEL WALSH (THE SILVER COIN) as the game starts to break all of its own rules!

TERRORBYTES #4 (MAD CAVE STUDIOS) $4.99

I just read issue 3, (read my review here) and if this issue is a good as the last, you're going to want to keep getting the series like I do.

From the Solicits:

When social media superstar Sean Bracewell creates a digital clone of himself to keep his empire afloat, his AI double quickly takes control—blurring the line between creator and creation. As Mr. Brace’s “SecondSelf” spirals into dangerous schemes that trade morality for views, the real question becomes: who’s truly in charge, the man or the machine?

The Collections Picks under $20

PLAGUE HOUSE TP (ONI PRESS) $19.99

(W) Michael W. Conrad (A/CA) Dave Chisholm

I don't know much about this series but the creative team is a big sell for me. Check it out at your LCS.

From the Solicits:

HOUSES AREN'T THE ONLY THING THAT ARE HAUNTED. . . . Architect of terror Michael W. Conrad (Wonder Woman, In Bloom) and Ringo Award winner Dave Chisholm (Miles Davis and the Search for the Sound) launch a deep and disturbing excursion into 21st-century horror . . . Thirteen years ago, Orin McCabe was a family man living a privileged life in the California suburbs. Today, he's condemned to death row for murdering his entire family in an unexpected fit of hammer-wielding brutality. In the aftermath of his heinous crime, it's fallen to a trio of eclectic but dedicated ghost hunters—Jacob, the holy man; Holland, the skeptic; and their leader, Del, a true believer in the occult and worlds beyond—to surveil the abandoned McCabe home in search of proof for the existence of the undead . . . and whatever supernatural source may have possibly fueled McCabe’s inhuman massacre. But this ill-matched and uneasy squad of investigators is about to discover something much more terrifying than any ordinary spirit. . . . Collects Plague House #1–4.

VANISHING POINT TP (MAD CAVE STUDIOS) $19.99

(W) Mark Russell (A) Juan Doe, Ryan Alexander Tanner, Alberto Ponticelli, Jok (CA) Juan Doe

Issue 1 was one of the best sci-fi stories I've ever read. I'm glad its being collected with the other 5 issues.

From the Solicits:

SIX EXTRAORDINARY JOURNEYS...INTO THE UNKNOWN! From the minds of Eisner Award-winning writer Mark Russell and artist Ryan Alexander-Tanner, Vanishing Point is where sci-fi meets existential dread.

In Screams, a seasoned mining ship captain embarks on a ten-year solo mission to space where he makes a horrifying discovery. The Tomorrow Family is a dark reimagining of the cartoon family of tomorrow, living in a future that might have been. In Cell Structure, a floating research station performs horrifying experiments on alien prisoners to discover the common elements all living things. In Proof of Life, a robot is put on trial for the ultimate offense of being alive. In Grave Remedies, a futuristic health clinic keeps patients alive against their will. But why? And in The Mission, a genocidal visitor arrives on Earth with a mission of mass extermination and a secret that could change everything. This volume collects all six issues of the critically-acclaimed series.
