Hank Howard, Pizza Detective: A Slice of Life #2 delivers the reveal with all the toppings

Posted on by Leave a comment

While Detective Hank Howard was busy getting hot and heavy with an old flame, Big Caligula customer George Horvath’s body grew colder than day-old pizza. Now, South Florida’s favorite regional pizza chain is under fire, assailed by wrongful death accusations from the grieving widow he left behind. But something smells fishy, and it’s not the anchovies. Hank knows Horvath was murdered by someone looking to get their palm greased and he’s out to prove it. Locked in a deadly game of cat and mouse, Hank must brave a den of thieves – The Gasparilla Pirate Festival – to hunt down the killer and bring them to justice. But he better stay frosty because someone’s packing heat and this festival promised fireworks.

A Witch Costume, A Missing Friend, and One Unexpected Ally Lead to a Night Where Fear Doesn’t Get the Final Word. Emily Kado & the Spiders’ Secret arrives in August

Posted on by Leave a comment

When the lights go out, imagination turns everything up. Emily Kado: The Spiders’ Secret, written and illustrated by Antoine Dodé, translated by Joe Johnson, with lettering by Dave Sharpe, arrives from Papercutz this August. This 120-page adventure blends gentle humor with eerie twists, an uplifting and encouraging children’s story that champions the power of imagination and proves that we all dare to face our fears, no matter how old you are!

Emily’s favorite thing to do is play with her best friend, Suzie. One day, when Emily goes to surprise Suzie at her house, Suzie isn’t home…but other scarier things are! Soon, Emily is on her own exciting adventure where she is joined by a new, helpful insect friend along the way. With his help and that of her special witch costume, Emily finds the courage to confront her fears of spiders, the dark, and…crazy clowns!

A strong fit for readers drawn to character-led adventures that explore fear through imagination, Emily Kado: The Spiders’ Secret sits comfortably alongside stories that embrace the surreal and the sincere in equal measure. It’s a story about growing up without rushing it.

Emily Kado: The Spiders’ Secret goes on sale August 11, 2026, in paperback (ISBN: 9781545827499 | $12.99) and hardcover (ISBN: 9781545827505 | $17.99) formats.

Arcadia #5 has interesting aspects but doesn’t hit the emotional moments like it intends to

Posted on by

Rouke has promised to show Halu and Fix the way to Arcadia, but the road to utopia is far from easy. From apocalyptic weather to deadly robot hunters roaming hostile towns, it feels like everything is conspiring to keep them from their destination. Perhaps worst of all, though, is when Rouke’s past catches up with him and a gang of scurrilous bikers comes looking to collect a debt.

Posted on by

Hank Howard is back in the one place he thought he’d finally left behind, his hometown of Tampa. But unfortunately for Hank, pizza crime doesn’t take a vacation.

Posted on by

A power struggle emerges as Heather’s new companions in the Art League wonder if she can be trusted as she plans to save the infants being held in the hospital. Soon, a shocking act shifts the balance of power within the group.

Meanwhile, it is becoming increasingly clear that not all members of President Andrew Cross’s inner circle support his decision to hand over control of the US government to the vampires of The White Cell. But in this lawless world, even a small act of rebellion can have major consequences.

Just when it seems like things couldn’t get any more dangerous in the nation’s capital, a gang of child-like vampires, The Kinder, begin a reign of terror over Washington DC.

Exclusive Preview: Marc Guggenheim’s Whisper War #3

Purchase

Chapter 3. With the murderer revealed, Axel Jindari’s hunt for the truth takes him to the Barren Reaches, a forbidden land that no one has set foot in for centuries– or so he thought!

Our middle issue is, appropriately, our fulcrum where I turn over some rather large cards and reveal much of what’s been going on. My hope is that people are pleasantly surprised that these revelations take place in the middle of the series rather than at the end. We still have a lot more story to tell.”

The Whisper War #3

Arcadia #4 really shifts the focus of the series as a new direction debuts

Posted on by

There’s nothing Halu has wanted more than to spend the rest of his life with Fix in blissful romance. But over time, their shiny love is starting to tarnish under the strain of everyday life. Especially compared to the picture- perfect narrative Halu can view through Weedy’s Neuronaten device.

Enter Rouke. A hard-living drifter offering Halu the opportunity for adventure. Halu is eager to join the brigand on the road, but Fix isn’t sure the price of those thrills won’t be too high.

The Ends has an interesting concept and direction but fumbles in the execution of it all

Posted on by

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.
