This Week's Highlights at Third Eye Comics for Wednesday 7/9/14

LUTHER STRODE creator JUSTIN JORDAN launches his next major hit ongoing series, SPREAD, this Wednesday with SPREAD #1
Meet SPREAD creators Justin Jordan & Kyle Strahm this Saturday at Third Eye!
Folks: we've been stoked about SPREAD ever since Justin first shared the concept with us -- and, we told him right then and there: dude, we're going to preach the heck out of this story when it finally drops.
Well, now, the time is here, and, sure enough, we are here to evangelize on the awesomeness that is SPREAD.
Trust me: you have to get this comic. You will LOVE this comic. It's one of the brightest shining stars in Image's Summer 2014 line-up, and it's going to turn a ton of heads this new comic day, guaranteed.
Ten years ago, we dug too deep. We unleashed something ancient that couldn't be controlled.
Something that couldn't be stopped, twisting everything it touched into more of itself.
The Spread.
Humanity was nearly destroyed before we found a way to slow the Spread to a crawl.
Now, deep inside the quarantined zone, one man has found the key to stopping it forever: a baby girl.
And, if he can save her, he might save the world.
Folks: imagine if John Carpenter's THE THING ate North America, and the world's salvation lied in the hands of the lead from Lone Wolf & Cub.
It's beautifully gory, gruesome and awesome alien vs. modern samurai madness in THE SPREAD, and we cannot wait to see how it plays out .
Get the THIRD EYE COMICS exclusive cover of SPREAD #1 this Wednesday by PROPHET artist SIMON ROY, paying homage to WALKING DEAD #19, the first appearance of MICHONNE
We loved SPREAD so much, Third Eye Faithful, that we contacted one of our favorite artists, Simon Roy, of PROPHET, to whip up a totally kick-ass exclusive Third Eye variant for issue #1.
This gorgeous cover pays homage to the first appearance of Michonne in WALKING DEAD #19, and is guaranteed to be one of the hottest Third Eye variants we've done yet.

Why? Well, aside from the fact that it looks to be one of the most kick-ass THOR / LOKI stories we've seen in quite some time from THOR GOD OF THUNDER writer JASON AARON, it's also the official in-continuity Marvel origins of Neil Gaiman's ANGELA (formerly of the SPAWN worlds).
Thanks to the events of ORIGINAL SIN, the deepest secret of the Nine Realms is revealed -- a Tenth Realm.
Thor and Loki embark on a quest to discover this strange new world -- and the sister Thor never knew he had: ANGELA.
But, can Loki be trusted? And will brother and sister murder each other before the truth comes out?

SPIDER-MAN 2099 #1 DEBUTS THIS WEDNESDAY, BRINGING THE RETURN OF FAN-FAVORITE MIGUEL O'HARA!
Straight out of the pages of SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN, the Spider-Man of the year 2099 returns, and we could not be more stoked.
Folks, we LOVED the SPIDER-MAN 2099 series from the '90s, and the character Miguel O'Hara remains one of the coolest incarnations of Spidey we've ever seen.
Think BATMAN BEYOND with Spider-Man, and you've got the totally awesome world of SPIDER-MAN 2099.
Now, with Miguel stuck in the year 2014, stranded by his father, who is the head of an evil corporation called Alchemax in the year 2099, Spider-Man 2099 must find direction for himself.
And, in the year 2014, Alchemax has just been formed, and Miguel has a chance to stop its corruption before it even begins.
You'd think being a man out of time would make you a man without enemies, but Spider-Man 2099 is about to discover that he's not the only one hoping for a better tomorrow, one that might be ensured by the Adjustor eliminating Miguel from the time stream altogether!
Join the legendary creator of Spider-Man 2099, Peter David, and the amazingly talented art of newcomer Will Sliney, for one of the raddest new Marvel books to launch this Summer.

CULLEN BUNN'S STUNNING NEW HORROR SERIES FROM BOOM STUDIOS, EMPTY MAN, CONTINUES IN EMPTY MAN #2 THIS WEDNESDAY! 
A MUST FOR FANS OF "NAILBITER" & "REVIVAL"
Third Eye Faithful, we LOVED the first issue of EMPTY MAN, and were totally hooked right from the get-go with it's crucially creepy premise, and incredible artwork.
Now, issue #2 ups the ante even more, and we gotta tell you: if you're digging books like NAILBITER and REVIVAL, then EMPTY MAN is a MUST-READ.
Agents Langford and Jensen have uncovered a hidden Witness Cult in the middle of American suburbia they suspect is behind the kidnappings plaguing the country, but will they catch up to Markoff and Patient Zero before the Empty Man virus strikes again?
What's it about? It's been one year since the first reported case of the Empty Man disease, and no drug has been able to slow its progress. The cause is unknown, and the symptoms include fits of rage, hideous hallucinations, suicidal dementia, and then ontop of all this, you're left in a near lifeless, 'empty' state of catatonia.
As murder cults rise nationwide, the FBI and CDC enter a joint investigation of the Empty Man, hoping to piece together clues to stop the cult and uncover a cure.
Wanna jump on board? We've got issue 1 in stock now to catch you up to this week's issue 2.

ADVENTURE TIME: BANANA GUARD ACADEMY #1 DELIVERS ONE OF THE BEST ADVENTURE TIME COMICS WE'VE SEEN YET!
Okay, guys, by now, you know: WE LOVE ADVENTURE TIME. We can't help it -- it's good, on so many levels, and the comics that Boom Studios delivers (the same folks who bring you Lumberjanes, Bee and Puppycat, and more) are AWESOME.
So, what's the scoop on this new series? Well, not only are the Banana Guards hilarious as the Candy Kingdom's protectors, but this new series written by Kent Osborne, the head writer on the ADVENTURE TIME show, is even more ridiculous.
So, it turns out there's a lot to being a Banana Guard -- but being a Banana is not mandatory.
This crazy adventure follows Root Beer Guy as he starts his search for new recruits among Ooo's citizens.

CHAOS! Comics's Punk Rock '80s Vampire, CHASTITY, returns in CHASTITY #1 this Wednesday!
In the 1980s, after a career-ending injury shatters her (and, really, her mother's) Olympic dreams, 17-year old Chastity Marks finds an escape in a popular series of vampire novels... but, little does she know, that the novels conceal a secret underworld of blood, agony and death.
And, it's a world that she will be dragged into kicking, and screaming, as the classic CHAOS! character is reimagined, rebooted, and ready for blood!
As kids of the '90s, we read the heck out of Evil Ernie, Lady Death, Chastity, and more, so we're pretty stoked for this new series!

We are loving LUMBERJANES, Third Eye Faithful, and if you're  fan of series like RAT QUEENS, then you gotta give this one a go.
What's it about? Jo, April, Mal, Molly and Ripley are five best pals determined to have an awesome summer together... and, of course, they're not going to let any insane quest or an array of supernatural critters get in their way.
A bunch of cool punk rockers killing monsters straight out of a cryptozoological handbook? We love it!
