One and Done
Alien Romulus #1 – Following the theatrical release of the highly anticipated blockbuster Alien: Romulus, Marvel Comics presents an all-new story revealing secrets of the film’s legendary antagonists! How did Xenomorphs find Rain, Andy and their scavenger crew? Familiar faces lurk in the shadows – and this issue shines light on them all!
The Feeding #1 – A throwback to the vibes of Tales from the Crypt and Creepshow. In this extra-length horror one-shot, Nolan Ward has done everything to forget his disturbing past. Drinking. Drugs. Day-trading. Sex. And still, that past has caught up with him in the form of a twisted painting called The Feeding… which eats people. And it’s hungry. Can Nolan stop this demon, or will he be devoured like so many others before him? From the team behind the hit series Canto, David M Booher and Drew Zucker, take you on a surreal journey into one man’s bloody psyche. Sold out at Midtown and TFAW.
Voices In My Head #1 – From Eisner Award winner Joe Pruett, comes a collection of disturbing tales, chilling revelations, and magical adventures. Drawn by some of today’s top artistic talents, including Michael Gaydos (Jessica Jones), Phil Hester (The Family Tree), Andrew Robinson (Dusty Star), Szymon Kudranski (Spawn), and Juan Doe (Dark Ark), with a cover by Brian Bolland!
Notable Reprints
Venom #3 Facsimile Edition – First appearance of Knull gets the facsimile treatment. Super interesting right now with him appearing in the new Venom Movie.
One to Watch

Pick of the Week
Absolute Wonder Woman #1 – Absolute Batman was a hit. Expecting to see some trickle down effect on WW and Superman. Still, a pretty good story and worthy of a pickup.
