BLOOD HUNT #1
MARVEL PRH $5.99
(W) Jed MacKay (A/CA) Pepe Larraz
THE BLOODIEST MARVEL EVENT EVER!
The skies have gone dark, the
sun hiding its face from the carnage to come. The children of the
night, the vampires, have risen from the dark and hidden places of
the world as one to drown the Marvel Universe in blood. Earth's final
night has fallen - can even the heroes of this doomed world stem the
tide of blood that is to come? Join the AVENGERS, BLADE, BLOODLINE,

SPACE GHOST #1
DYNAMITE $4.99
(W) David Pepose (A) Jonathan Lau (CA) Francesco Mattina
Greed and corruption flourish in the darkness between stars. With
the territories of the Galactic Federation spread far and wide across
the vastness of space, pirates and hijackers ransack the distant
colonies with cruel disregard for the innocent scientists living
within them.
Yet there is a cosmic vigilante who metes out
justice throughout the galaxy, bringing vengeance to those prey upon
the defenseless.
Some say he is a policeman who has abandoned
the strictures of the law. Others say he is a phantom, the sole
survivor of a war-torn planet. And those who have survived his wrath
claim he is more a force of nature, able to bend the very elements of
Creation to decimate his enemies.
They call him the SPACE
GHOST - and his adventures begin here!
Award-winning writer
DAVID PEPOSE (Punisher) and superstar artist JONATHAN LAU (Vampirella
Strikes) kick off this action-packed series with a surprise attack on
Space Colony Omicron - home of the brilliant scientist Dr. Jerrod
Keplar and his young children, Jan and Jace, as well as their pet
monkey, Blip. With the colony's defenses overwhelmed, all seems lost
- but these ruthless pirates didn't count on the wild card that is
Space Ghost!
DEADPOOL WOLVERINE WWIII #1
MARVEL PRH $4.99
(W) Joe Kelly (A/CA) Adam Kubert
WADE WILSON AND LOGAN AT THE ENDS OF THE EARTH - AND EACH OTHER'S
THROATS!
The most intensely mismatched team-up in comics and pop
culture - the best there is and the merc with the mouth - undergoes a
radical change as we kick off a three-part, globe-spanning saga for
the ages! The mysterious DELTA believes in change. Change is good.
But as he sets his sights on DEADPOOL, and WOLVERINE is caught up in
the plot, is the third time really the charm, or the curse? Get ready
for WWIII to erupt on the scene with the wildest duo in comics from
legends Joe Kelly (DEADPOOL, UNCANNY X-MEN) and Adam Kubert
(WOLVERINE, UNCANNY X-MEN)!
