Every week, tons of new books hit the stands, each with potential. Some live up to that potential. We pick the ones we think have the best shot at heating up. Here are the picks of the week for delivery this Wednesday
What’s up Wednesday Warriors? Smallest week so far this year, one must have pick of the week, and very little else. Hopefully something else pops to make the week more fun.
New Series
Patchwork Girl Of Oz #1 – All ages adaptation of L. Frank Baum’s seventh book in this classic fantasy series. Join Ojo the Unlucky, Scraps the Patchwork Girl, and Bungle the Glass Cat on an amazing quest that takes them on a whirlwind journey from Munchkin Country to the Emerald City!
Pinupocalypse #1 – Actually sounds like a fun read. Pinupocalypse is a mix of 50’s sci-fi and horror tropes reimagined with a clever twist. Set in 1950’s small town America, this satirical adventure pits two stylish pin-up girls against hordes of zombies and aliens. Inspired by Hollywood filmmakers like Ed Wood, Sam Raimi and Edgar Wright, Pinupocalypse is an out-of-this-world story with a Gil Elvgren aesthetic to titillate readers! It’s Foxy’s birthday, and with money in her pocket, she’s on a mission to find the perfect dress! That is until an explosion rocks the small town of Pinupolis and startles her out of the dressing room. Surrounded by suspicious green smoke, Foxy emerges to find that everyone else in town has turned into zombies!
