Posted on by Leave a comment

An all-new story arc of the Head Lopper series by Andrew MacLean will kick off with an extra-length issue in April from Image Comics—just in time to mark the 10 year anniversary of its original launch. The series will feature a line-up of highly collectible variant covers by such fan-favorite artists as: Alex Horley, Jeffrey Alan Love, Dylan Burnett, Jim Rugg, and James Harren.

MacLean’s masterclass in kinetic action and dark humor will be on full display in Head Lopper (2026) #1. Witness Norgal behead mythic beasts while his chatty, severed-witch-head companion, Agatha, provides relentless sass. It’s visually stunning, high-fantasy carnage that proves decapitation is better with company.

Get a look a Red Roots from Lorenzo de Felici

Posted on by Leave a comment

Artist and writer Lorenzo de Felici‘s highly anticipated ongoing series, Red Roots, will launch with a slew of eye-popping variant covers by such high-flyers as Ryan Ottley, Mike Mignola, Luana Vecchio, Riley Rossmo, and Jason Howard. This pulse-pounding new adventure will kick off on April 29 from Image Comics.

De Felici rose to prominence with the launch of Oblivion Song—his co-creation with Robert Kirkman (Invincible, The Walking Dead)—and his subsequent success as the artist on the tentpole Energon Universe title, also with Kirkman, Void Rivals. De Felici and Kirkman’s creative alchemy set the Energon Universe on a path to sales-chart-domination and Void Rivals in-and-of-itself went on to become one of the biggest launches of 2024. It is currently on its 12th reprint with no signs of slowing down in momentum. This recent breakout success makes Felici’s upcoming solo series one of the most exciting new developments in comics of the year.

In Red Roots, the lives of a professional killer and a high school teacher are bound by a terrifying, mysterious force.

Posted on by Leave a comment

Skybound, Image Comics, and Hasbro have revealed a first look at interior pages from G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero Sssilent Missions – Copperhead #1, an all-new one-shot debuting for Skybound’s Silent Missions month. Made by renowned writer and artist Howard Porter and colorist Romulo Fajardo Jr., this issue arrives in comic book shops on April 22. 

The face of comic books changed forever when G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #21 introduced fans to the “Silent Interlude,” an action-packed story with no dialogue. This April, Silent Missions Month returns for a second year, but with a new twist: the focus turns to Cobra as its most lethal members take center stage in a new series of silent, high-stakes stories, featuring superstar creators. 

Strap in with Howard Porter for a swamp death race that’s too fast and too fatal for the fearless COPPERHEAD to turn down. Unfortunately, his competition isn’t going to let anyone stop them from winning! 

In addition to the main cover by Howard Porter and Romulo Fajardo Jr., the lineup of variant covers includes an open to order cover by Jorge Fornés, a 1:10 incentive black and white version of Porter’s cover, and the continuation of 1:25 incentive foil letter cover series by Fornés, ultimately spelling COBRA. 

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero Sssilent Missions – Copperhead #1 is the fourth of five all-new Silent Missions one-shots, each releasing on a Wednesday this April, from an elite assembly of talent including Gabriel Hardman, Jöelle Jones & Declan Shalvey, Pat Olliffe & Tom DeFalco, Howard Porter, and Jorge Fornés.
