Save Now #3 has an interesting focus as it reflects on Saver’s powers

Posted on by

The end of the world is here and Saver couldn’t stop it from coming. Now, years deep into the wasteland of Earth’s doomed future, Saver and his daughter January are still alive and on the run, haunted by the past that Saver couldn’t fix and hunted by the people who can’t let it go. Integrity International have spent years chasing Saver down, desperate to drag him back and force him to try and prevent the apocalypse once and for all. And now they finally have him in their sights. But Saver has nothing left to give and everything to lose. He’s not going back without a fight.

Hank Howard, Pizza Detective: The Two Hollywoods #2 wraps up the mystery with a solid finale

Posted on by

The heat’s rising in Hollywood as Detective Hank Howard closes in on the Aussie drug syndicate that left Big Caligula’s rising star lying cold on the linoleum. But the bodies are piling up around him and the feds muscling in on his murder case are demanding that he back down…or else. But an explosive showdown with a flamethrower-wielding hitman tells him he’s hot on the killer’s trail–and he’s not backing down. Outgunned, outnumbered, and out of jurisdiction, Hank will need his fists and his wits if he’s going to crack the case before he finds himself buried six feet down under!

FINAL ORDER CUTOFF FEBRUARY 9, 2026 | IN STORES MARCH 11, 2026

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.

Knight City #1 might feel familiar but delivers what could be an interesting new take on superheroes

Posted on by

A legendary hero is caught between two worlds. By day, he soars as a symbol of hope, but the moment he falls asleep, he enters a universe devoid of heroes and he leads a mundane life. As the pressure of his dual universes mount, his heroic self begins to crack, pushing him toward a mental breakdown.

In a world that measures the loss of human life that occurs when he takes one night off, the weight of his responsibilities becomes too much. Ultimately, he’s left with a choice: embrace his extraordinary abilities or seek solace in the ordinary.

Will he stand tall in a world that needs him, or find peace in a simpler existence?
