Check it out! It’s New Comic Book Day!
Without heroes… without protection… without restraint… there is only Absolute Evil #1
The emergence of superheroes has caught the attention of the world… and it’s certainly caught the attention of the people who run it. Ra’s al Ghul, Veronica Cale, Elenore Thawne, Hector Hammond, and the mysterious Joker have worked at cross-purposes until now, but this growing threat requires new ways of thinking… and new partnerships. An insidious betrayal from within their ranks is imminent, and if they don’t take action, they’ll lose control of a planet that was built to be their playground!
The return of Knull in: Venom #250. Venom and Mary Jane Watson are stuck with each other — and life just isn’t letting up. But at least things can’t get worse… can they? While the hits keep coming on Earth, the Cult of the Void gathers in the depths of space — and only one Skrull soldier knows their terrible secret. Knull has returned… and nowhere in the galaxy is safe. Join us as Venom celebrates it’s legacy 250th!
The Department of Truth celebrates its 5th Anniversary with an extra-length #0 Issue! The Department of Truth #0. A new day has dawned at the Department of Truth. Lee Harvey Oswald and his ruthless new recruits are ready to do whatever it takes to make the agency great again. Don’t miss this critical turning point in the Eisner-nominated series!
Happy Reading!
