Witches of Brooklyn Vol. 6: S’Witch Back takes us further into the witches’ world

Posted on November 1, 2026 by Brett Leave a comment

Effie’s actions have consequences. After losing a duel and accidentally freeing the notorious Flower Sisters, she now has to face the Witches Council. Forced to leave her Brooklyn community and head into Manhattan, she can at least count on the fact that her friends will be by her side…hopefully.

Effie just wants to go back to life before the duel, but after a fight with Garance, she’s realizing that maybe there are some other problems she has been ignoring. Learning magic is one thing, but being a good friend and a good witch is something else entirely. Can she fix it all before it’s too late or will the Witches Council put an end to all her magical adventures?

A retired group of legendary mercenaries get the band back together for one last impossible mission in this award-winning debut epic fantasy.

“Fantastic, funny, ferocious.” — Sam Sykes

Clay Cooper and his band were once the best of the best, the most feared and renowned crew of mercenaries this side of the Heartwyld.

Their glory days long past, the mercs have grown apart and grown old, fat, drunk, or a combination of the three. Then an ex-bandmate turns up at Clay’s door with a plea for help — the kind of mission that only the very brave or the very stupid would sign up for.

It’s time to get the band back together.

Secret Agent X-9 Coming January From Dan Didio, Tom Derenick, Mad Cave Studios, and King Features!

Posted on October 31, 2026 by Graphic Policy Team Leave a comment

Writer Dan DiDio and artist Tom Derenick are bringing a classic spy into the modern day in their upcoming noir series Secret Agent X-9, coming from Mad Cave Studios and King Features. The new eight-issue comic book series is inspired by the spy-thriller Secret X-9 newspaper comic strip by Dashiell Hammett and Alex Raymond, which ran for more than 60 years. Fans of classic noir and detective stories like Dick Tracy will love this thrilling new take on beloved spy Phil Corrigan. Featuring colors by Jão Canola and letters by Jeff Eckleberry, Secret Agent X-9 #1 hits shelves on January 27, 2027.

In 1934, Hammett and Raymond created their genre-defining strip Secret X-9, starring an unnamed agent who worked for a shadowy anonymous agency. Now, a new legendary creative team led by DiDio and Derenick joins forces to explode Secret Agent Phil Corrigan into the modern day! When a failed assassination attempt drags retired super-spy Phil Corrigan back into the shadows, he’s forced into an uneasy alliance with a younger operative to hunt Pendulum–a shadow network manipulating both extremes of the political spectrum to keep the world in perpetual chaos. Featuring old villains and new allies, surprise settings, and classic explosive action, Secret Agent X-9 kicks off the noir comic of the year!

The first issue of Secret Agent X-9 will feature a stunning Cover A by Mike Perkins with variant covers by an all-star lineup of artists including Derenick, Miguel Mercado, and Gabriel Hardman.

Ahead of the first issue’s release, fans of the original strip will also enjoy the upcoming hardcover collection of Secret Agent X-9 coming from Mad Cave Studios and King Features. The collection features Hammett and Raymond’s original newspaper strips as well as the first two years of Al Williamson and Archie Goodwin’s revival strip Secret Agent Corrigan, created thirty years after the original. The book will be available in bookstores on January 12, 2027, and in comic book stores on January 13 (ISBN13: 9781545837474).

Witches of Brooklyn Vol. 4: Spell of a Time hits familiar beats but is really fun and entertaining

Posted on October 30, 2026 by Brett Leave a comment

School is back in session, which means new friends, new lessons, and, of course, new magic! But every time Effie thinks she finally has this magic life down, something new pops up. Like the fact that she can listen and talk to animals. Or that, on a school trip to Coney Island, she overhears a flock of seagulls discussing a missing…mermaid?! And on top of all that, Effie is still trying to figure out if her powers make her a good witch or a bad witch…and what that means for her future.

But regardless of what kind of witch she is, Effie knows what she needs to do. With the help of her friend Garance, some talkative seagulls, and a rather helpful turtle, Effie is determined to make a splash to find this mermaid!

Hokis, Focus!

(W) Ian Flynn, Ryan Jampole (A) Ryan Jampole

A disaster-prone young wizard sets out to undo her biggest magical oops and ends up on a chaotic quest with a grumpy frog mentor, an orc knight-in-training, a skeleton chef, living flames, a dragon with a cold, and way too many giant spiders.

An easily-distracted young wizard named Hokis is on a magical quest across a fanciful world full of adventure, hijinks and laughs! Hokis is on the road with her frog companion Pokis and will need all the help she can get to find the powerful arcane relic known as the “Yundu!” She’ll need to brave the spooky road through Spiderweave Glade, the icy storms of Sunblister Valley, and the questionable cuisine of Grimlawn. Along the way she’ll encounter talking spiders, talking skeletons, taking flames, and a very well-meaning but chatty ogre named Ugh.

Hokis may command powerful magic, but the elements don’t bow to just anyone (and especially not bratty novice wizards)! Hokis will have to grow and learn a lot in her journey, not just about magic, but about herself and what it means to be a good friend. Lucky for her she’ll be meeting all sorts of great teachers along the way!

Come along for a whimsical romp full of magic, mystery and monsters as we all say: “Hokis, Focus!”
