SOMETHING NEW

NEW COMICS

6 NOVEMBER

It's another gigantic week of first issues here at Dave's, so if you're itching to start something new now is definitely the time to come in store. I'm extra excited because one of my favourite Marvel characters, the once-presumed-dead-but-of-course-this-is-comics fuzzy blue elf we know and love as Nightcrawler makes his triumphant return in AMAZING X-MEN #1! Also in the Marvelverse we have the official Beginning of the End of Ultimates, in with the five part mini-series CATACLYSM: ULTIMATES LAST STAND. Occasional member of the X-Men Longshot gets a chance to prove just how lucky he really is in the four part mini LONGSHOT SAVES THE MARVEL UNIVERSE, and cult favourite Painkiller Jane returns in her own four part miniseries PAINKILLER JANE: THE PRICE OF FREEDOM. Heading across the multiverse to DC, there aren't any new series beginning this week, but we do have some of your favourites arriving in store, like BATMAN BLACK AND WHITE #3, SUPERMAN UNCHAINED #4 and FOREVER EVIL #3. There's also a special reprint edition of JUSTICE LEAGUE #1 for just £1, which makes it a great starting point to catch up with this title.  Image comics are having a great week as well, with FATALE #18 (finally!), EAST OF WEST #7, superhero/detective comic PROTECTORS INC #1 and ADAM + ADA #1, an unlikely romance between man and machine.  There's also Gail Simone's all female-created LEGENDS OF RED SONJA miniseries, a brand new REGULAR SHOW series, and a TRANSFORMERS team-up several years in the making. So what are you looking forward to reading this week? Talk to us @DavesComics!

68 HALLOWED GROUND ONE SHOT 

THIS SPECIAL ONE-SHOT IS DEDICATED TO THE LATE JOSH MEDORS AND HIS FAMILY - A SPECIAL STORY FOR A SPECIAL FRIEND.
On February 13, 1968, a passenger train derails in Streiner, Mississippi when a rotting mass of the living dead blocks the tracks. Hundreds are killed and the few desperate survivors are forced to hole up as best they can within the confines of the small rural town. Trapped in a tiny church, two soldiers fresh from the killing fields of Vietnam must do their best to defend a handful of civilians from the oncoming horde of flesh-eating cadavers. While a man named for the devil holds the barricaded sanctuary, a sniper in the belfry above practices his deadly trade, slaying the "disciples" of hell from a hundred yards away. Together, they must brave the living nightmares of 1968 and fight to hold their tiny piece of HALLOWED GROUND.   

ALEX + ADA #1

From JONATHAN LUNA (GIRLS, THE SWORD, Spider-Woman, ULTRA) and SARAH VAUGHN (Sparkshooter) comes ALEX + ADA, a sci-fi drama set in the near future. The last thing in the world Alex wanted was an X5, the latest in realistic androids. But when Ada is dropped into his life, will Alex keep her? This will be JONATHAN LUNA's return to comics after three years off since the end of THE SWORD! 

CYBER FORCE #7

DRUMHELLAR (PREVIOUSLY STRANGEWAYS) #1 

 When shock-induced visions drive a detective specializing in the paranormal to a small town in South Dakota, he finds himself up against flesh-hungry bog-men, his ex-girlfriend, their mutual ex-girlfriend (did we mention she's a werewolf?), and a demon that's stolen his arsenal of psychedelics. Then things start to get weird. We live in strange times. 

They call for strange ways!

Heroes without anything or anyone to fight...until one of them is murdered in ways that could only have been accomplished by someone with equal powers. 

Solving the mystery falls to Lieutenant Detective John Riley, an ordinary man whose investigation takes him into a strange and dangerous world light years beyond his abilities to understand and very likely far beyond his capacity to survive. The trail leads to a fifty-year-old secret that could threaten the very existence of Protectors, Inc., an impossible love affair, and a serial killer whose work is not yet finished.
