Star Trek Deviations: Threads of Destiny #1

This special one-shot features Lieutenant Nyota Uhura. In the 23rd century, she explores far-flung star systems with her crew on the Enterprise as part of her mission to communicate and build bridges with life found across the Galaxy. But in the 20th century, humankind was working to build understanding among themselves, with African Americans on Earth championing the Civil Rights Movement and using their voices and acts of protest to end racial segregation and discrimination.

Now, by way of the Guardian of Forever, Uhura is yanked back through time to 1963. There, she’ll join all those fighting for equality and justice and reconnect to why her work as a communications officer is perhaps the most important work of all.

Science fiction quickly becomes Cain's reality when a shadowy sect calling themselves the Brutal Dark appears in the city wielding resources that defy human logic.

ThunderCats: Lost in Time #1

THE FUTURE ISN’T WHAT IT USED TO BE! Ripped from their adopted home of Third Earth, the ThunderCats Pumyra, Neko, Lynx-O, and Ligon find themselves trapped on the distant future world of Sixth Earth — a broken, dystopian planet ruled by a totalitarian police state, where cats are outlawed and hunted to the brink of extinction.

To prevent this nightmarish future from ever coming into existence, the quartet must find a path back to their own time — and that means infiltrating the government’s omniscient surveillance grid and shutting it down. But what they discover at the center of the all-seeing network chills them to their very cores — and what they learn about a certain upcoming event will send shockwaves though the lives of every Thunderan past, present, and future!

ED BRISSON, the acclaimed author of Apex and ThunderCats Lost, joins special guest artist CHRIS CAMPANA (Red Sonja, Vampirella) for this pivotal 40-page one-shot that bridges two different worlds — and sets the stage for a universe-shaking crossover event that will change the course of ThunderCats history!

Featuring all-new original cover art by DECLAN SHALVEY, ENID BALAM, ALESSANDRO RANALDI, and CAT STAGGS, ThunderCats Lost in Time #1 will distribute all covers — including variants and limited edition incentives — randomly in a single Mystery Blind Bag offering!

Is Ted OK? #1

This is a story about Ted and Sarah. Ted, isolated and paranoid, works for a mega-corporation owned by the world’s only trillionaire. He suffers from night terrors, obsessively draws the same mysterious figures again and again, all while listening to one track of music on repeat–oh, and the only “person” he ever talks to is a stray cat. His humanity is hanging by a thread. Sarah is a new arrival to the city, fighting her own demons, and her job is to remotely spy on Ted to ensure he doesn’t hurt anyone…or himself. When Ted’s mental state begins to crack, Sarah compassionately intervenes to help, and things go catastrophically wrong.

IS TED OK? mashes up the paranoid existentialism of SEVERANCE with the cosmic sci-fi of AKIRA while exploring what happens when the act of help goes horribly wrong. From creator Dave Chisholm (SPECTRUM, MILES DAVIS & THE SEARCH FOR THE SOUND), Is Ted OK? is a spectacularly unpredictable yarn–each successive issue shatters the scope of the previous, all without losing its core: a search for human connection in an oppressive, paranoid world. 

 

Maid Cafe #1

NOTE: Covers A, B, and C are randomly bagged with one of four exclusive Maid Café trading cards featuring artwork by main cover artist Mark Spears and interior artist Remy "Eisu" Mokhtar!

Mao's love for her chainsaw and her mounting hatred for the ungrateful men of a Maid Cafe explode in a delicious bloodbath, spilling out over a shopping center. Her fellow maids soon catch the fever of retribution, and the girls of the otherwise competing cafes, decorated in cheeky aprons, pink hair bows, and blue suede shoes, run amok through the mall's Pachinko parlors and snack shops. Join the maids in a frilly pastel uprising!

 

The Rocketeer: The Island #1

The Rocketeer returns to save Amelia Earhart in a brand-new story by creator Dave Stevens!

The year is 1938, and Cliff Secord (A.K.A. the Rocketeer) is recruited to lead a search and rescue mission. The mission? Find Amelia Earhart! Considering a year has passed since the famous pilot went missing, the Rocketeer is hesitant at first — that is, until he learns the expedition is to the same island Betty ran off to with the scummy photographer Marco! The Rocketeer will have to uncover the secret of the century’s greatest mystery while trying to win back his girlfriend. But what else awaits him on the island?

Beloved writer John Layman (Chew, Titans) and artistic powerhouse Jacob Edgar (Plastic Man: No More, The Ones) team up to tell the wildest Rocketeer story ever, based on a never-published outline by Rocketeer creator Dave Stevens!

 

Disney Villains: Ursula #1

INTO THE BOTTOMLESS BLUE! Writer SHERRI L. SMITH and artist GABRIELE BAGNOLI take readers back beneath the waves for an all-new tale of tentacled treachery!

Years before she would meet a young mermaid named Ariel, the formidable Ursula presided over a vast underwater kingdom as one of the Seven Sea Witches. Along with Capricia, Scylla, Charybdis, Melusine, Tiamat, and Vodyanoy, together the septet ruled the world's oceans with impunity.

So when one of Ursula's royal sisters is suddenly found broken and stripped of all her powers, Ursula takes it as an attack upon their collective authority, and sets out to find and punish the culprit — knowing that, among all the denizens of the deep, only one would dare to challenge the Sea Witches' reign!

Featuring a shimmering school of covers by MIRKA ANDOLFO, JAE LEE & JUNE CHUNG, ROBERT QUINN, ELLERY, and SHATOKI SHIKI, Disney Villains: Ursula #1 plumbs the hidden depths of one of Disney's most beloved baddies!

 

Murder Drones #1

Based on Glitch Productions' global animation phenomenon created by Liam Vickers and now streaming on Prime Video, it's three cheers for 'destroy all humans' as all-star creators Wyatt Kennedy (Nights, Marvel Voices) and Jo Mi-Gyeong (Eve, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance) unleash the record-setting comics adaptation of the series that you have watched 330 million times: MURDER DRONES!

In the far future on the desolate exoplanet designated Copper 9, the humans are long gone but the robotic worker drones they created to mine the planet's resources are still hard at work. Together, they have managed to forge their own makeshift society... or so they thought until a previously unknown kind of robot — the dreaded 'Murder Drones' — are activated by a long-forgotten human-scripted protocol to disassemble any worker that deviates from its original programming. But when a rebellious young worker drone named Uzi forms an unlikely alliance with two disassembly drones — Serial Designations N and V — can they, together, uncover the secrets of their origins... and stop the spread of the unsettling mechanical virus known as the Absolute Solver?

Robots, violence, teen angst, mad science, love, loss, doors, hormones, and chaos! What more could you ask for? A pen, perhaps? It's a clicky pen! (Ask your kids. They'll get it!)


Darkstalkers X Street Fighter: Hunter Killers #1

Deep in the Darkstalker Dimension, Morrigan tempts the werewolf Jon Talbain to give in to his violent urges. Can Menat save Talbain from his own violent urges? It's the penultimate chapter of the Lords of the Makai saga!
