Since entering the world of cartooning in the mid-1980s with the science-fiction adventure series Xenozoic Tales, Mark Schultz has slowly but consistently produced a very diversified body of work. He has created illustrations for Robert E. Howard’s Conan stories, scripted four years of Superman, composed a science guide to genetics and DNA, created the Stormforce 10 adventure SubHuman with paleontologist Michael J. Ryan, and written the novella Storms at Sea, which he also illustrated. Currently, he scripts the comic strip Prince Valiant and, in his free moments, continues to work on a new Xenozoic graphic novel as well as a sequel to Storms at Sea. Flesk, who are presenting Mark’s appearance at this year’s Baltimore Comic-Con, has been his proud publisher since 2005 and continues to regularly release collections of his sketches, commissions, and personal works.

Gus Vazquez is an illustrator who has worked in nearly every field, including comic books, trading cards, storyboarding for music videos, commercials, animation and film, logo design, character and toy design, and more. He started his career in comic books working as an assistant to comic book artists Adam Pollina on X-Force, and Kevin McGuire on Trinity Angels. He got his first solo gig at Marvel Comics drawing the covers and interiors for Sunfire and Big Hero 6, the series that introduced the characters featured in Disney’s Oscar winning Big Hero 6. He has worked on such Marvel titles as Deadpool, X-Force, Spider-Man, What If? Civil War, What If? Back in Black, The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe, and more. For DC, he has worked on such titles as Green Lantern, JLA, Blue Beetle, and most recently on Flash, Suicide Squad, and Green Arrow.

P.I. Perry Cutter is on the case in Los Monstruos, a hardboiled monster mystery from James Robinson and Jesús Merino

Posted on by

Dark Horse Comics presents Los Monstruos, a new four-issue detective mystery/monster mash-up miniseries set in the 1950s written by James Robinson, illustrated by Jesús Merino, colored by K.J. Diaz, and lettered by Jim Campbell. Issue #1 will be available in May 2025 and will feature main cover art by Merino as well as four variant covers by Tony Harris, Marcos Martín, Ramon Perez, and Dan Panosian.  

Los Monstruos, located on the West Coast of America, is a city populated solely by monsters of all the kinds you’d find in classic folklore and black-and-white horror movies. They’re all just getting on with their lives, working, doing jobs, nothing bad, nothing evil. Well, apart from the crooks and gangsters in Los Monstruos’ underworld, but every city has those, right? All cities have private detectives, too, and werewolf P.I. Perry Cutter has a simple case that’s quickly turning into a king-size headache. Initially hired to find an old man’s lost love from among the city’s vampire community, Perry quickly finds things spiraling out of control as both vampire and Egyptian mummy criminal gangs begin to get involved too. So, as Perry looks for answers, he runs a gauntlet of danger while also uncovering dark secrets about his own past as a cop in the Los Monstruos Police Department. Can Perry solve the case, put his history to rest, stay alive, and still make that date he has with that cute vampire waitress he’s crazy about? It’s sure going to take all his skills as a detective and his abilities as a werewolf to do it.

Los Monstruos #1 (of 4) will be available in comic shops on May 7, 2025. It is now available to pre-order for $4.99 at your local comic shop.

As part of DC’s “All In” publishing initiative launching in October, Detective Comics, one of DC’s foundational comic book titles, continues with an all-new story and new creative team as Eisner Award-winning writer Tom Taylor and superstar artist Mikel Janín take the Dark Knight in a new and chilling direction. On October 23, Taylor and Janín, with letterer Wes Abbott, debut part one of “Mercy of the Father” when Detective Comics #1090 arrives at participating comic book shops and digital retailers.

Detective Comics #1090 reveals a mystery surrounding the origin of DC’s Caped Crusader and introduces a mysterious and terrifying new villain stalking the bloodstained streets of Gotham City. Long ago, the murders of Thomas and Martha Wayne changed Gotham forever. But there is something you never knew about the Dark Knight’s tragic origin—something that has been lying in wait to strike at Batman ever since that fateful night in Crime Alley. And now, all these years later, this ghost of Gotham’s past begins to reveal itself. The streets of Gotham will run red with blood until the World’s Greatest Detective solves one of his most earth-shattering cases yet.

Detective Comics #1090 features a main cover by series artist Janín, with variant covers by Dan Panosian, Bruno Redondo, Tony Harris, and Ashley Wood, plus an “All In” foil variant cover by Daniel Sampere.

From the demented mind of Mark Russell, Ramon Rosanas, and AWA… Rumpus Room!

Posted on by

Scares. Squirmy satire. Skin cream. From the keen mind of Mark Russell comes Rumpus Room, the upcoming satirical thriller series distributed by comics publisher, AWA. Created by Russell and artist Ramon Rosanas, Rumpus Room tells the story of Bob Schrunk; technocrat billionaire, collector of bad art, and victim of a hideous skin condition that can only be treated with a highly illicit and definitely not FDA-approved face cream that must be…harvested. The first issue of this original, 5-issue series will be available on Wednesday, September 20.

In Rumpus Room, a new-agey technocrat billionaire named Bob Schrunk keeps an assortment of people who’ve offended him in some way imprisoned in his subterranean “rumpus room.” Every week, his prisoners must vote out one cellmate to a horrible fate: their bodies ground up to make the not-over-the-counter facial cream that hides Bob’s morbid skin condition. Bob is in total control, but there’s just one thing he doesn’t know: his most recent “guest” is a cop, and she’s carrying a concealed gun.

AWA’s Rumpus Room is created by writer Mark Russell and artist Ramon Rosanas. The series is colored by Ive Svorcina and lettered by AndWorld Design, with covers by Tony Harris. Coming off the success of his crowdfunded book of cartoons, Bunkbed Mishaps, Russell has also illustrated hilarious child-like art variant covers for each issue. Rumpus Room #1 will be available Wednesday, September 20, both digitally and in stores wherever comic books are sold.
