As a huge Jaws fan, one book I am really looking forward to is HookJaw coming out from Titan Comics. HookJaw was a serial released in Action #1 (a British publication not the DC one) that was so gory it was banned. The original story is hard to find as a result. Si Spurrier, who recently did Cry Havok and previously worked on Six Gun Gorilla has reimagined the story and it will be coming out shortly. We previously ran the promo art, but the covers to the series are out and I am really excited for this one.  Continue reading “HookJaw Cover Art Released”

Tyson B. from www.toyboxone.com with some Spoilers for the Rogue One Smugglers Bounty Box which looks like it can’t be missed. 

Comicsheatingup.net is proud to announce their exclusive variant for Black Mask Studios comic Black #1. The Black and White Comicsheatingup.net variant is limited to 250 copies. 
Black is a what if story, What If only black people had superpowers. Think of the X-Men Tag Line “In a world that fears and hates them.” We have been covering the book since before it was picked up by Black Mask, in fact, Mel spotlighted it as a Future Hits From the Kick(starter) book many months ago.  Continue reading “Black #1 Comicsheatingup.net Variant”
