how many other boxes will he check ? or will only see him may ?
Well done, @Anthony .
While I have a few free moments from my captors, instead of calling for help I’ll choose to make a few more picks.
Comics The Magazine #3. Cool Eastman Turtles cover.
A couple other Indy’s I actually pre-ordered because the solicitation sounded interesting/different.
Killswitch #1 (of 4). Sort of Blade Runner meets invasion of the body snatchers.
In 2067 Los Angeles, consciousness is currency. When corporate thief Atlas jumps off a skyscraper to escape authorities, he doesn’t die—he wakes up in the body of Kate Sloan, a comatose cop. In a world where neurolink chips allow the dead to hijack the living, Atlas works with his handler Smitty to steal crypto codes from corrupt Elysium executives. But when he’s ready to jump to his next body, he discovers Sloan has a daughter—and she knows he’s not her mother. The explosive new sci/fi thriller where nobody is who they seem!
Seven Wives #1. Not what we’d usually see from IDW.
Forty-nine witnesses, seven wives, one dead husband.On Monday, April 17, at 9:04 a.m., two police detectives are dispatched to investigate a death on a Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints compound in remote Arizona. Matthew Dunn, the patriarch of the Dunn family, has been found stabbed on the pulpit of his temple, basking in the blood-soaked gaze of his savior.Detectives Aguilar and Halwell begin the arduous task of questioning each of Matthew‚Äôs seven wives and quickly encounter a brick wall of memorized Scripture, canned platitudes, and locked lips. It becomes clear that the women intricately braided hair, voices with sweet affectations, and modest clothing arent just signs of Matthew brainwashing but armor they use to protect their family. But with each interrogation, the cracks begin to show abuse, the truth of living and surviving in this cult‚ and the detectives uncover the unholy gospel of Matthew Dunn.
Alright…my time is up. Gotta run!
Literally, has to run, banjo music coming…

ASHCAN OF THE WEEK

Valentine Virago has always struggled with her health. Her rare autoimmune disorder she’s had since she was a kid has defied all treatment, and as she grew older, it defied even classification. You see, Valentine can take her immune system and weaponize it. What would just be a normal sneeze to the rest of us, she can turn into a projectile of bloody miasma. Just as a start.
Fed up with being a test subject for pushy doctors, Valentine has gone on the lam in search of the freedom to be herself. Unfortunately, interested parties want her back in their care, and they are sending goons in hazmat suits, led by her one-time nurse and potential love interest, Jono. He’s offering her a spot in a private medical facility run by his parents, where others like her with maladies that aren’t found in any textbook can find solace.
Val isn’t one for institutions, however, and what some may see as a safe haven, she sees as a prison—and what is a prison but something you need to break. Can she organize the rest of the patients to escape with her, or will she be on her own once again?
For every 5 copies of The Dogsitter #1 ordered, retailers will be eligible to order a pack of 20 ashcans promoting the upcoming series Sicko.
