Ordained #2 is a fantastic issue that nails down its 80s/90s action vibe. Popcorn fun.

Posted on by

After a bruising brawl with mob boss Cormac Byrne’s hired guns, Father Royston Craig is still standing. But Cormac’s not through with Roy yet. Now an entire city of corrupt cops and ruthless thugs is tasked with one mission–KILL THE PRIEST. Forced to rely on the combat-hardened skills he earned in a life he thought he left behind, Roy is battered, outnumbered, and on the run. His faith will be tested, and in a city full of killers, the question is: who can he trust?

It’s 1985 and Jennifer End and Angelo Rodriguez are deeply in love. But Jennifer can never reveal their relationship to their family. The Ends are considered by some to be traditional, but by most, they are known as intolerant, discriminatory, and bigoted.

Her brother, Jack, is the worst of the bunch and a full blown, hardcore skinhead. During the summer, when Jennifer travels to Oceanside, a retirement home for veterans, to be with Angelo under the guise of visiting her grandparents, Jack discovers their relationship.

Jack is crushed by the betrayal. He decides it’s time to take a stand. Jack organizes a rally in the peaceful town of Oceanside. Soon the town is overrun by neo-Nazi youths. The police struggle to maintain control, leaving the only hope with the aging World War 2, Korean War, and Vietnam War veterans who reside in the town.

Bad Idea delivers a look inside Tony Millionaire’s The Oddball’s Odyssey

Posted on by

On April 8th, Tony Millionaire makes his long-awaited return to comics. And he’s delivering his magnum opus — The Oddball’s Odyssey!

Collaborating with superstar colorist Jim Campbell, Millionaire nimbly fuses the master storytelling of Homer’s The Odyssey with the surreal beauty and intricately rendered linework of Moebius’s Arzach to deliver a breathtaking work of art destined for the comic canon.

Divine providence has finally done what no hangover ever could – Bobby Dougherty is sober. But fate works fast and it’s not long until Bobby tumbles back off the wagon. A single glance at the radiant swan Lucia Serena DelMar leaves the former booze-hound monkey drunk on love and hopelessly devoted. When Lucia takes flight, Bobby refuses to let his chance at love slip through his fingers. Joined by his faithful friend Jimmy Skunk, he sets off on a perilous journey across distant lands – through impossible labyrinths, over treacherous seas and into the path of a vicious, fire-spitting minotaur in an epic quest to win Lucia’s heart.

Frank Quitely, Derek Kolstad, Robert Venditti, and Jesse Lonergan Storm Shops with Warbird

Posted on by

Buckle up! Because Warbird #0 is rocketing into comic shops on April 29th — just in time for Free Comic Book Day! Blockbuster screenwriter Derek Kolstad and New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti shattered the sales records and made history with their mega-hit Planet Death. The team is BACK in the cockpit! And they’re bringing the heat once more for an all-new, white-knuckle, globe-spanning action/spy blockbuster. Suiting up for the ride is superstar artist Jesse Lonergan! Nominated for an Eisner for his Image series Hedra, and renowned for his critically-acclaimed original graphic novel, Drome, Lonergan takes flight on interior art.

The team is joined by living legend Frank Quitely. Not only has he provided stunning design work for the series, but Quitely is coming in hot with a jaw-dropping cover!

Witness Cole in action with just a glimpse of the Russian next generation fighter jet — a cover so stunning, it’s also offered as gorgeous, ultra-rare, virgin incentive!

Cole is a repo man of the highest caliber, repossessing heavily guarded mega yachts from billionaires, private planes from captains of industry, and everything in-between. If it’s got an engine, he can drive it, ride it, or fly it straight out from under the nose of an army of guards.

But now he’s handed the job of a lifetime. The impossible job. One that will bring him face to face with the highest stakes.

The Russians have stolen aeronautical military secrets from China, France, Germany, The UK, and the US to “Frankenstein” together the ultimate bleeding edge, next-gen fighter jet: The Warbird. There are only three of them in existence. They are a force of absolute nature—$1.4 billion apiece—dominating every global hotspot from Syria to Ukraine. And Cole’s been hired to steal one… and destroy the other two.

His fee? 10%. A cool $140 million. But this isn’t a repossession job. This is outright theft. And failure doesn’t mean jail time and fines—it means a bullet to the back of the head.

Survive #5 delivers 80s action film awesomeness in its finale

Posted on by

Bruised, battered, and suffering from a serious case of the Bends, but far from out of the fight. Deep inside the Turgenev, they’ve uncovered a hidden stockpile of nuclear weapons, guarded by a ruthless band of heavily armed Russian mercenaries. With a U.S. Navy anti-ship cruise missile locked onto the vessel and seconds ticking down, Trent and Stepan must carve a path through the mercs, secure the ship, and trigger the strike that will obliterate the Turgenev before its deadly payload can reach its target.
