LEGEND OF THE SCARLET BLADES TP
(W) Saverio Tenuta (A) Saverio Tenuta
Raido, a young Ronin-a masterless Samurai-roams the land in a quest for his memories. His first stop is the City that Talks to the Sky, the ultimate stronghold against the ice invading the Land of the Rising Sun. There, he meets Meiki, a graceful puppeteer and storyteller of charms. With her aid, Raido begins to reassemble the pieces of the puzzle that is his identity. Legend of the Scarlet Blades, as painted in the tormented and airy style of Saverio Tenuta, is a series whose universe is inspired by feudal Japanese history and traditions, full of breathtaking settings and terrible dangers, and populated by a myriad of wondrous mythical beings.
LUGOSI RISE & FALL OF HOLLYWOODS DRACULA TP
(W) Koren Shadmi (A) Koren Shadmi
As horror cinema's most iconic actor, Bela Lugosi is forever remembered for his haunting role as Count Dracula, frightening filmgoers for many years. But once the cameras finally stopped rolling...that's when Lugosi himself learned what true terror was. Beginning with his early life in Hungary as a young actor and activist, this first-of-its-kind graphic memoir details Lugosi's flight from his homeland after becoming an enemy of the state and his eventual move to the US, where his career flourished-for a while. Following a pivotal career mistake that allowed Boris Karloff's star to rise while his plummeted, Lugosi's pride, extravagant lifestyle, and addiction to drugs, women, and the high life led to his tragic decline and humiliating later years that saw him join forces with infamous B-movie director Ed Wood for one last shot at stardom.
SPACE BASTARDS #8
(W) Joe Aubrey (A) Darick Robertson (CA) Darick Robertson
Darick Robertson returns for the "War Song of the Hiccopai!" When we last saw the Bastards, everyone died...right? Well, maybe there were a few survivors, and now they're battered, bruised, and ready to take the fight to Wayne Powers-that smarmy jerk. Before Powers can deploy his teleportation tech and eliminate the need for the IPS forever, the last Bastards standing hatch an elaborate scheme-that would make Danny Ocean smile (and blush)-to disrupt the proceedings and make sure they're the only couriers in this galaxy worth hiring.
