The Jungle #1 takes the gang from The Humans and puts them behind bars in the worst prison out there

Posted on by

The Cult Classic Apesploitation series, The HUMANS, returns in a new sequel series, The JUNGLE!!

The HUMANS step off the Blacktop into the Big House. Johnny, Marra, and Nada face the harsh struggles of life inside California’s third-oldest (and meanest) prison, SUNLAND VALLEY Correctional, better known to the inmates as The JUNGLE.

Forced to acclimate to the vicious world behind bars—without Broads, Bud, or Bikes!— they face off against a Dirty Warden, Crooked Screws, a Crazy Christian Cult, Mafioso Thugs, and, worst of all, their own inner demons!!!

Graphic Policy’s Top Comic Picks this Week!

Posted on by
Pine and Merrimac #1

Wednesdays (and Tuesdays) are new comic book day! Each week hundreds of comics are released, and that can be pretty daunting to go over and choose what to buy. That’s where we come in

Each week our contributors choose what they can’t wait to read this week or just sounds interesting. In other words, this is what we’re looking forward to and think you should be taking a look at!

Find out what folks think below, and what comics you should be looking out for this week.

Beware the Planet of the Apes #1 (Marvel) – Cornelius and Zira must trust a human named Nova to find their missing nephew Lucius.

Conan the Barbarian #6 (Titan Comics) – The new Conan series has been excellent with solid storytelling and great art. This issue kicks off a new arc and should be a solid spot to dive in.

Fall of the House of X #1 (Marvel) – Krakoa has been broken and the current phase of the X-Men begins to wind down with this series.

Kaiju No. 8 Vol. 9 (VIZ Media) – The series has been a solid twist on the monster/kaiju genre full of twists and solid action.

Kneel Before Zod #1 (DC Comics) – General Zod now has a planet to rule. What happens next?

Maple Terrace #3 (Uncivilized Comics) – Noah Van Sciver’s biographical comic has been intriguing and a curtain pulled back on the Van Sciver family growing up.

Marvel Meow #1 (Marvel) – The all-ages webcomics that have come to print has been really cute so far and we expect more of that.

Miguel O’Hara: Spider-Man 2099 #1 (Marvel) – Spider-Man 2099 and Blade 2099 team up to take on Marvel Zombie 2099.

Ministry of Compliance #2 (IDW Publishing) – John Ridley spins conspiracies of an alien race who has been manipulating Earth and those in charge of that have no been cut off from their bosses.

Pine and Merrimac #1 (BOOM! Studios) – On the corner of Pine and Merrimac sits a small, unassuming town… Just a simple place, simple people, and one horrifying secret that could change everything…

Unnatural Order #2 (Vault Comics) – The first issue was part of Vault’s new distribution test of giving it away for free. The ending was rather intriguing and enough for us to come back to see what’s next.

Vengeance of the Moon Knight #1 (Marvel) – Moon Knight is dead! What’s next?

The Sickness #3 has us still not sure as to what’s going on but really wanting to find out

Posted on by

1945: Daniel Buss, an anxious teenager living in small-town America, has been experiencing strange symptoms: mood swings, increased sensitivity, and terrifying hallucinations, threatening to ruin his summer vacation before freshman year. Worse, a stalking presence watches Daniel’s every move.

1955: George Brooks—war vet and tireless doctor—nears retirement from his decorated past. When a local housewife murders her entire family, her son—the sole survivor—is put into his care; George grows obsessed with uncovering what could drive an ordinary person to such brutality.

Ginseng Roots #12 is an interesting finale focused more on the “roots” of the story than the Ginseng

Posted on by

Ginseng Roots #12 wraps up Craig Thompson’s story as he reflects on a lot, including the comic itself.

It continues to focus on Thompson’s creation of the comic itself and more research in Korea and China. At the same time, it focuses on Thompson’s own family and his relationship with his brother.

Find out what folks think below, and what comics you should be looking out for this week.

Abbott: 1979 #1 (BOOM! Studios) – On the eve of the 1980s and the Reagan Administration, Detroit is burdened with an oppressive darkness-both political and supernatural. It’s the start of the final chapter of the trilogy!

Birds of Prey #2 (DC Comics) – The first issue was what we expected hitting a lot of moments we’ve seen before but the interaction, personalities, and art, has us excited for more. The debut was a lot of fun and we’re expecting more for the second.

Clementine Book 2 (Skybound) – Clementine’s adventure continues in the second volume of this graphic novel series for younger readers based on the popular video game set in the world of The Walking Dead.

Count Dante #3 (Scout Comics) – The comic is the sort of true story about the martial arts legend. How much is fact and how much is fiction? That’s for you the reader to decide.

The Devil That Wears My Face #1 (Mad Cave Studios) – It’s Face Off meets The Exorcist and it’s so good. Watch our initial review.

Ginseng Roots #12 (Uncivilized Comics) – It’s the finale to Craig Thompson’s series that has him celebrating his parents’ 50th wedding anniversary. It’s been an interesting series about a world so few of us know.

G.O.D.S. #1 (Marvel) – It’s a “bold” expansion of Marvel’s Gods and the first issue is… interesting. We’re expecting big things from this, so this is the chance to get in on the ground floor.

The Midnite Show #1 (Dark Horse Comics) – Cullen Bunn and Brian Hurtt… that alone has us excited about this horror series about monsters of the silver screen coming to live and wreaking havoc on a small town.

The Night Eaters Vol. 2 Her Little Reapers (Abrams ComicArts) – The first volume caught us off guard with its horror roots. It delivered so many twists and turns, we’re excited to see what the second volume brings.

The Plot Holes #2 (Massive Publishing) – Sean Gordon Murphy’s new indie series’ debut was full of interesting ideas about characters in books who have to save other books. It was more than enough to get us intrigued to see what comes next.

Ranger Academy #1 (BOOM! Studios) – If you had a chance to join the Power Rangers, would you do it? We’re intrigued about this new series that expands the Power Rnagers Universe.

Transformers #1 (Skybound) – We’re Transformers fans and this comic already has sold out at the distributor level, so it’s hot, hot, hot! We’ve read it already and our review will be out Wednesday and we definitely have thoughts.
