Hear ye hear ye 📣📣 We present this week’s featured comics!

Our top pick features the new “X-Force” for the “From the Ashes” era
Saga opens its 12th chapter in #67 (we’ve missed you Saga subs)
Godzilla had a new rival; the sea dragon MANDA
In Blade Runner Tokyo Nexus, watch a squad of combat replicants & their Human commander go AWOL, fighting for their freedom before the Blade Runners can retire them

We’ve also got 2 upcoming titles that have us gobsmacked- Storm is slated to become the first mutant Avenger, and in her solo series we’ll get to see how she dominated her new position (I’m sure she’ll be fine, she was a X-Men, a queen, and a God after all). Then we have a very exciting collab; Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles X Naruto- not sure if I’m more excited for Naruto to eat pizza or the turtles to eat at Ramen Ichiraku.

Also, please expect a delay in our Marvel, IDW, and Dark Horse comics- we love a good shipping delay!

If you’d like a copy held or would to subscribe to any of these titles, call (512)-454-2399 or drop us a message! 🐲⚔️
