ADVENTURE ZONE GN #4

CRYSTAL KINGDOM

(W) Clint McElroy (A) Carey Pietsch (CA) Carey Pietsch

The fourth installment in the #1 New York Times-bestselling Adventure Zone graphic novel series, a hilarious meta-fictional D&D adventure story based on a smash hit podcast. When a desperate call for help interrupts the holiday celebrations at the Bureau of Balance, TAAko, Magnus and Merlea are sent out after their fourth target for deadly relic Reclaiming: a powerful transmutation stone, hidden somewhere in the depths of a floating arcane laboratory that's home to the Doctors Maureen and Lucas Miller. An unknown menace has control of the stone and is using it to turn the lab into a virulent pink crystal that spreads to everything it touches. It's only a matter of time before this sparkling disaster crash-lands, but in order to find the stone and save the whole planet from being King Midased, our heroes will have to fight their way through a gauntlet of rowdy robots and crystal golems, figure out if they can trust the evasive Lucas Miller, and solve the mystery of what -- or who -- has put them in peril, all before there's no world left to save. Based on the blockbuster podcast where the McElroy brothers and their dad play a tabletop RPG and illustrated by cartooning powerhouse Carey Pietsch, The Adventure Zone: Crystal Kingdom takes this #1 New York Times Bestselling series to glittering new heights.

IRON MAN #10

(W) Christopher Cantwell (A) CAFU (CA) Alex Ross

Tony has been suddenly and bizarrely marooned on an unknown remote planet, and his abandonment doesn't seem to be Korvac's doing at all. While his friends continue to pursue Korvac and his allies across the galaxy in a race to Galactus' worldship, TAA II, Tony must now figure out where he is and if the locals are friendly or dangerous, especially since this small colony of fellow space drifters is run by a powerful old foe who might have reformed his ways. But at least for a moment, Tony has a chance to rest and to not only take stock of where he is, but also figure out how he got here in the first place and who he wants to be moving forward. Rated T+

(W) Type-Moon (A) TAA

Before the most recent Holy Grail War, Shirou Emiya spent most of his days like practically every other high school teen. Growing up without his parents, however, meant his evenings were commonly spent cooking up meals for the many faces who would pass by his traditional Japanese residence. Whether friend or foe; stranger or comrade, Emiya gladly whips up classic Japanese dishes that often win over even the most seasoned warrior. On the menu this volume are a range of Japanese and western dishes: Ginger Pork, Steamed Yams and Candied Sweet Potatoes, Creamy Brownies, Hot Pot Udon, Pork and Veggie Miso Soup, Shiro's Special Hamburgers.
