SOMETHING NEW

NEW COMICS
19 MARCH 2014


Welcome back Buffy! Everyone's favourite Vampire Slayer returns with 'New Rules' for Season 10, and I'm sure she's just as excited to be back in action as we are. Speaking of vamps, the next series of Batman scribe Scott Snyder's critically acclaimed AMERICAN VAMPIRE begins in 'Second Cycle', and wow does it look good. 
Also starting this week: steampunk adventure in CLOCKWORK ANGELS, video game tie-in THE WITCHER, dark epic fantasy SOVEREIGN, and oh yeah, some guy named DAREDEVIL. So much good stuff, right? I know. 
But wait, there's more! Finn and Jake get separated in ADVENTURE TIME #26 (I sent a tweet to writer Ryan North asking about it and he sent me back a photo of 'No More Tears' shampoo, should we be worried? Eeep), Harley deals with obnoxious neighbours in HARLEY QUINN #4, we say goodbye to Buddy in the final issue of ANIMAL MAN (don't worry, he'll still be around in Justice League United!), Jon and Susie's future together seems undecided in SEX CRIMINALS #5, the unlikely duo tackling crime on the world's most dilapidated space station get to work in THE FUSE #2,  and Kamala Khan is returns from her triumphant sell out debut in MS MARVEL #2! I can't wait to read it. :)



BOOM
ADVENTURE TIME #26
Finn and Jake have always been best buds; they are always together, it's just
something best buds do. But what happens when these two friends get separated
on a crazy adventure with twists and turns? Will our pals be able to find each other
again or is this just all part of growing up? 
RUSH CLOCKWORK ANGELS #1
WHY WE LOVE IT
Rush's Clockwork Angels is a testament to the band's creative
versatility, successful as a concept album, novel and international
tour. Now Rush drummer and lyricist Neil Peart and New York Times
bestselling author Kevin J. Anderson are bringing the story of
Clockwork Angels to comics, where newcomer artist Nick Robles
will bring the journey of Owen Hardy to visual life!
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
Die-hard Rush fans have longed for Peart's narrative songwriting to
be adapted into comic book form for decades, but fans of steampunk
fantasy will enjoy journeying into the world Albion thanks to
Anderson's skilled storytelling.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT
Owen Hardy, like all the people of Albion, has lived his whole life under
the rule of The Watchmaker. His entire life has been planned down to
the exact second. But what happens when a young boy decides that
things should not always goes as planned?

AMERICAN VAMPIRE SECOND CYCLE #1 
 The Eisner Award-winning, critically acclaimed series is back! #1 New York Times best-selling writer Scott Snyder (BATMAN, SUPERMAN UNCHAINED, THE WAKE) and acclaimed artist Rafael Albuquerque (ANIMAL MAN) bring their bloodsoaked opus into the 1960s! The story so far... Pearl Jones is a new kind of vampire, one of an American breed that can walk in the sun and has rattlesnake fangs. She's beautiful and powerful - and she's hiding from a tragic past...
Skinner Sweet is an American vamp too - the kind you love to hate. He's good when he wants to be, but most of the time he's downright bad. He's Pearl's maker, but he's off in Mexico with an agenda of his own... Will their two stories collide, or are they separated forever? And who is this new villain on the horizon, someone bloodier and more evil than anything seen in AMERICAN VAMPIRE before? Who is THE GRAY TRADER and what does his arrival mean for Skinner and Pearl?
