1/6: The Graphic Novel asks the chilling question “What if the January 6, 2021 Insurrection had been successful?” In Issue #3, the characters confront their worst fears as American democracy is toppled in a violent coup d’ètat, militias roam the streets, and an authoritarian regime grabs control. But there are embers of hope as our heroes, joined by everyday people around the country, begin to form the resistance.

In a week of terrible news, more keeps coming. It was announced today that comic artist Karl Moline has passed away.
Moline worked for numerous publishers and was the co-creator of the series Fray. Moline worked on multiple titles for CrossGen, Dark Horse, DC Comics, and Marvel.
Series include Unity, The Loners, Avengers Academy, Avengers Area, Convergence: Superboy, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, B.P.R.D. The Dead Remembers, Route 666, and more.
An outpouring of praise has come since news broke and he was described as “one of the best people in the world” and “had a smile and never had anything bad to say.”
Our thoughts go out to his family, friends, and fans.
1/6: The Graphic Novel asks and answers the question: what if the January 6, 2021 Insurrection had been successful? In an entertaining, chilling, and sometimes humorous form, 1/6 illustrates how close we came to authoritarian rule in the United States, demonstrating how strategic disinformation, racial and religious bigotry, and cynical political ambition convinced millions of ordinary Americans to reject cherished constitutional values and support violent sedition.

Marvel Knights 2099
Written by Robert Kirkman Art by Kyle Hotz, Pop Mhan, Karl Moline, Khary Randolph, Cliff Rathburn Cover by Pat Lee Purchase
Marvel Knights – founded in 1999 – has been a symbol of cutting-edge quality not just for Marvel, but also for the entire industry. Now, on the fifth anniversary of this imprint, Marvel is shooting 100 years from the start date for a special event – MARVEL KNIGHTS 2099. The five stories contained in this volume are set in a familiar time for longtime Marvel fans, but will turn the future upside down, just as Knights did for classic characters during the past five years.
Powerless
Written by Matt Cherniss, Peter Johnson Art by Michael Gaydos Cover by Alex Maleev Purchase
Collects Powerless #1-6.
What makes a hero? Is it his actions, or is it the results of those actions? POWERLESS explores what it means to be a hero in very human terms. By re-imagining Marvel’s most popular characters without superhuman powers, this story strips down to the core heroes we have all come to know and love. These characters – including Peter Parker, Matt Murdock and Logan – were fated to be heroes. Just because Peter Parker wasn’t bitten by a radioactive spider doesn’t mean he didn’t do battle with a madman named Norman Osborn. Matt Murdock? Blinded, yes – but with no heightened senses. However, he did become a legal champion of the poor in Hell’s Kitchen, and he did cross paths with Wilson Fisk, the Kingpin. And Logan is, of course, the enigmatic – and amnesiac – drifter on the run from his past.
