MIGHTY BARBARIANS #1

(W) Michael Moreci (A) Giuseppe Cafaro (CA) Olivier Vatine

From the writer of Barbaric comes the world-hopping, skull-crushing adventures of The Mighty Barbarians!

They’re barbarians. They loot, they plunder, they conquer. That’s what they do, and they do it alone… until NOW!   

When an unstoppable force starts consuming one world after another, sorceress Morgan Le Fey uses her magic to assemble a team of skull-cracking warriors who must somehow work together to save all of existence. There’s the young trickster Anansi, Viking shield maiden Birka, the shape shifting Nanook, and their leader, heir to a fallen kingdom and mightiest of warriors, KULL!

Though their alliance is uneasy, they will do whatever it takes to cut the heart right out of their mutual enemy, leaving a path of ruin through everything and everyone that stands in their way!

Before The Avengers, The Justice League, The X-Men, before it all… stood The Mighty Barbarians!

(W) Andy Diggle (A) Rubine (CA) Christian Ward

SUPERBOY THE MAN OF TOMORROW #1 (OF 6)

(W) Kenny Porter (A/CA) Jahnoy Lindsay

CONNER KENT TAKES CENTER STAGE!

After the events of Dark Crisis, Conner feels out of place with the rest of the hero community. He doesn’t fit in with the rest of the Superman Family, and the rest of the world doesn’t really need him with so many Supers in Metropolis. He doesn’t want to rely on Tim, Cassie, and Bart, so Conner looks to the stars as a place he might be able to call his own and carve out his own path. But what lurks in the great unknown? Are bravado and swagger enough to help Superboy find his new calling?


TERRORWAR #1

(W) Saladin Ahmed (A/CA) Dave Acosta (VCA) Daniel Warren Johnson

Blue City was the last livable place on Earth. Now it’s crawling with Terrors-creatures that transform into their victims’ worst fears. Humanity’s last hope? Muhammad Cho and his overworked, underpaid crew of freelance Terrorfighters.

The story of the cult classic film continues with this comic book sequel, prefaced by an adaptation of the film itself, so that no reader is left behind.

DANGER AND OTHER UNKNOWN RISKS GN

(W) Ryan North (A/CA) Erica Henderson

I’m gonna tell you a story, and I’m gonna ask that you let me finish before you say anything. Here’s the deal – on midnight of January 1st, 2000, the world ended. But it wasn’t technology that killed it: It was magic.

Now, years later, the Earth has transformed. Magic works (sort of). People are happy (sort of). But this new world isn’t stable, and unless Marguerite de Pruitt and her canine pal, Daisy, do something about it, it’ll tilt into deadly chaos.

Good thing they’ve been training their whole lives for this and are destined to succeed.

Or so they think.
