Posted on by Leave a comment

New York Times bestselling writer and multiple Eisner Award nominee Matt Kindt (BRZRKR, Mind MGMT) takes the reins to present a tense and turbulent spectacle of mind-bending comics storytelling from the prehistoric age through many dimensions beyond our own in a truly one-of-kind, quarterly comics showcase! Packed with first appearances, shocking self-contained introductions to major new Flux House releases, and awe-inspiring surprises, join one of the medium’s most widely acclaimed creative minds—alongside longtime collaborators Brian Hurtt (Fort Psycho), David Lapham (Stray Bullets), and more—for 64 pages of wildly unexpected and wholly unpredictable stories that will tattoo themselves onto your psyche in brilliant CMYK ink. First: Enter the age of wonder and survival in the double-sized first chapter of new two-part tale, “SPARK,” as a young woman and her hunter-gatherer community set out to withstand the change of seasons and, with it, harness newfound tools to stave death off for one more cycle of the stars . . . Then: Kindt and Lapham present the key to “ROOM 101”—a seemingly derelict motel room that also possesses endless doorways to the crossroads of all time and space. And for the gargantuan finale: A brand-new tale of shrapnel and stamina, exploding out of the pages of FORT PSYCHO—Kindt and Hurtt’s mayhem-infused, super-spy epic.

The Hab #4 continues to go in its odd zombie direction but still continues to show promise

Posted on by Leave a comment

A fungal infestation has taken control of The Hab–and the minds trapped inside. It brings with it a message: Peel back your flesh, strip by strip. Unburden yourself from what’s inside. Make room. It’s time to become something new. But first…YOU MUST DIE! After a last-ditch hunt for a cure deep within the cavernous underbelly of The Hab goes horribly wrong, Dr. Farooqi, Mel, Mina, Tomas, and Tuttle are the last inhabitants of their damned refuge left alive. But they’re not alone. The dead walk again—rotting, reanimated, and consumed by the spreading infection that’s taken hold of The Hab. Mina knows their only hope is to seal off the ancient cave spewing spores into the station. But Tomas and Tuttle have a different plan…burn it all down.

Tankers vs. Ancient Aliens #3… where are the Tankers fighting aliens!?

Posted on by

BORN TO A DEAD PLANET! Forged in the unforgiving icy wastes of a barren eyeball planet, two rival intelligent species duel for control of their harsh domain. Battle-hardened in the celestial crucible of galaxy-spanning civil war, a new dominant species emerges – a hyper-intelligent alien race that takes to the stars in the hopes of finding new worlds to colonize in the far-flung black. But out in the farthest reaches of space they meet an existential threat, an enemy with the power to consume all life as we know it. Facing down utter annihilation against a universal apex predator, a convoy of alien soldiers ship out across the galaxy to prepare for the coming onslaught, sending a scouting party armed to the teeth hurtling towards Earth…and straight to the Tankers.
