EDGAR ALLAN POE`S SNIFTER OF DEATH #2 (OF 6)
(W) Dean R. Motter (A) Dean R. Motter (CA) Richard Williams
An automaton equipped to defeat an educated human in the game of chess? Preposterous! Poe himself undertakes to pierce the mechanical mystery in "Chess Player." Plus! An ostensibly helpful bit of software tries to dominate a writer's creative process in "Angle of the Odd." Our special "Dread of Devices" issue closes out with prose stories and a poem.
MY BAD #1
COVER A KRAUSE
(W) Mark James Russell (A) Peter Krause (CA) Peter Krause
A sharp super-hero spoof from a stellar team that includes co-creators of Irredeemable and Second Coming! In Gravel City, the super-villain Emperor King has devised not only a sadistic death trap for his arch-enemy, The Accelerator, but also the means to penetrate the top secrets of his other arch-enemy, The Chandelier! Important new comic book universe begins here, we say sarcastically!
SECOND COMING ONLY BEGOTTEN SON TP #2
(W) Mark James Russell (A) Richard Pace (CA) Richard Pace
The long-awaited second volume of the book ComicsBeat called "the world's most dangerous comic book and the most lovely." As superhero Sunstar anticipates becoming a father, he agonizes over how - and if - he can use his powers to make a better world for his child. And as Jesus Christ loses his bedroom to a nursery, he struggles to find a new place in a society that distorts and exploits his message for profit.
SNELSON #4 (OF 5)

Cue up the laugh track! Comedian Melville Snelson doesn't know how many oxycontins he took. (Laughter) His shows are bombing. (Laughter) His website is attracting trolls who threaten violence. (Laughter) A comic he identifies with just committed suicide. (Laughter, applause) Time for a near-death experience with the possibility of a fatal encore. (Crickets) Plus: prose & pix, AHOY-style
