HA HA #1
ICE CREAM MAN writer W. MAXWELL PRINCE brings his signature style of one-shot storytelling to the world of clowns…
HAHA is a genre-jumping, throat-lumping look at the sad, scary, hilarious life of those who get paid to play the fool-but these ain’t your typical jokers.
LOUD OGN TP NEW PTG
The LOUD nightclub. A latecomer stripper, a pissed waitress, a hitmen couple, a suspension bondage performer, a pregnant teenager, a clan of vampires, a pedophile, a lesbian junkie, a divorcing middle-aged woman, a sadistic dominatrix, and many other souls in search of love, drugs, and blood converge at the hottest club in town on a night that none will ever forget. If they survive.
LOUD is like THE HUNGER if directed by Tarantino — a stylish, tripped-out bloodbath of beautiful and vicious decadence.
JIM LEES X-MEN ARTIST ED HC
This very special Artist’s Edition features Lee’s stellar work on X-Men, including the complete oversized X-Men #1-still the bestselling comic book ever published! Additionally, there will be covers, splash pages, pin-ups, and interior pages by Lee doing what he does best-creating great comics.
COMPLETE KIRBY WAR AND ROMANCE HC ROMANCE DM VAR
King of the comics art form, Jack Kirby needs no introduction. He was an architect of the Marvel Universe, but his contributions extended far beyond just super heroes. Now, highlighting two sides of the human condition, Kirby’s war and romance work finally gets its due!
KA-ZAR SAVAGE OMNIBUS HC ANDERSON ACTION DM VAR
A new world for the jungle lord! A hunt for his four-legged friend Zabu takes Ka-Zar beyond the Savage Land and into the ancient paradise of Pangea! From shining citadels to the lofty heights of the Aerie, it’s a land filled with newfound friends – and fresh dangers!
KULL SAVAGE ORIGINAL MARVEL YEARS OMNIBUS HC WHELAN DM VAR
Thousands of years before the dawn of Conan, barbarian tribes rose across the Thurian continent, threatening the civilizations whose crumbling city walls still stood against them. In this ruthless age, there rose a man-an exile, no less-who would come to rule mighty Atlantis in the years before it crashed beneath the waves. This man was Kull and a host of Marvel’s greatest talents would chronicle his saga-his exile and savage youth; his exploits on the high seas; his rise through the gladiatorial pits and military ranks; his reign as king; and his epic battles with the skull-faced sorcerer Thulsa Doom.
LUKE CAGE EPIC COLLECTION TP RETRIBUTION
Luke Cage burst onto the comics scene in 1972 as the “Hero for Hire!” Equal parts Marvel Method and Blaxploitation boldness, Cage was a new kind of hero for a new era, the historic first African American character to headline his own series. Cage’s adventures depicted New York City’s 1970s grit and the plight of its people with a realism that was gripping in its time, all while incorporating larger-than-life villains. Collecting HERO FOR HIRE #1-16 and POWER MAN #17-23.
