BATTLE IN THE FLOWER GARDENS is a sweet look back to early adolescence during the summer in a beachside town. Every summer, Luke goes to the beach with his parents and his best friend, Mitchell, with whom he shares various geek interests and pastimes. But this summer everything changes, testing and altering friendships forever.
Like any teenagers in the 90s, they found refuge from parents and the real world in the arcades of the time. The battle that takes place over video game skills has real world consequences that will reverberate amongst the teenagers forever.
Characters killing their authors. Authors trafficking their characters to be sex workers in the real world. Actors morally abusing characters they play. Real people illegally settling in cartoons so as to never age again. That’s just a regular Tuesday for our META agents. The Metalinguistic Crimes Division patrols the borders between our world and the many universes of comics, cinema, games, theater, literature, and other narrative media.
When a comic book artist is murdered in a weird fashion, META takes the case. Alan, the victim’s brother-in-law and a frustrated, wannabe writer, gets involved in the investigation, and discovers he can somehow enter comic books at will. He also starts unlocking repressed memories from his childhood, when he lived in several fictional worlds. Now, Alan and META need to work together to find Alan’s kidnapped sister, before she suffers the same fate as her late boyfriend.
Meta is a new comic series from writer Marcelo Saravá, artist André Freitas, colorist Omar Viñole, letterer Deyvison Manes, and edited by Andrea Lorenzo Molinari.

After a hefty $100 million bounty is suddenly put on their heads, BASH, RIPPLE, & MONA-LISA embark on a deadly cat-and-mouse game of survival that pits them against the menacing DARK RAIDER. Led by father-figure, GAN-GON, the gunslinger gecko, our furry bounty hunters are finding it impossible to dodge the fearsome general of S.P.A.C.E (Space Police Authority & Command Enterprises), who has sicced everything from sniper vipers, armed armadas, and a hulking robo-shark on our heroic space capybaras. They are ultimately pushed to the brink, as inner turmoil within the group begins to gnaw at their resolve, ending in Gan-Gon’s capture as he puts his life on the line to ensure his “capy” kids escape unharmed. Not content in leaving their reptilian dad in the clutches of Dark Raider, the Galactic Rodents of Mayhem come together and hatch a last minute plan to rescue Gan-Gon. Even though the capybaras fought valiantly and destroyed Dark Raider’s signature flagship, they tragically lost Gan-Gon in the process. However his death did not go in vain, as it finally unified the capybaras, inspiring them to memorialize the courageous gecko forever in their hearts. They will honor his last wish by sticking together on a hideaway planet far away from violence and turmoil, that is, until Dark Raider resurfaces out of nowhere ready to converge on the safe haven of our oblivious anthropomorphic heroes.
Galactic Rodents of Mayhem is by writer Gilbert Deltrez, artist Sebastian Navas, colorist Tiago Barsa, and letterer Deyvison Manes. It’ll be published by Scout Comics this Fall.
