The IMAGE hit FIVE GHOSTS: HAUNTING OF FABIAN GREY continues with this Wednesday's FIVE GHOSTS #2
We were completely and totally blown away by this IMAGE debut last month, and are totally stoked to see the second issue hitting us so soon with this week's FIVE GHOSTS: HAUNTING OF FABIAN GREY #2.
This pulpy post-modern masterpiece of a comic is one of the most exciting debuts of 2013, and we cannot give it enough praise.
Picture this: Fabian Grey is a treasure hunter of the highest caliber. Picture Indiana Jones through the eyes of Hellboy creator Mike Mignola.
And, Fabian has a little bit of an unfair advantage -- he's got five ghosts that've all gifted him with supernatural abilities that he uses to help him achieve his means.
The Detective. The Archer. The Vampire. The Wizard. The Samurai. Fabian can call upon these unique abilities as he so desires, but... is he the only one with such a gift?
That's what we're going to find out in this week's issue #2, as he finds himself in the ALTAR OF THE SPIDER-GOD!
This is one of the most kick-ass, and exciting new books we've seen in quite some time, Third Eye Faithful, and again, we cannot give it enough props.
Wanna jump on board? We've got issue 1 in stock now to catch you up to this week's #2.
Make Sure to Snag the FIVE GHOSTS #2 Phantom Variant by BEN TEMPLESMITH!
The second issue of FIVE GHOSTS also features one of those totally nifty PHANTOM VARIANTS, like the first.
These are extremely limited, as they're only released to less than 30 stores worldwide, and we're pretty stoked to be one of them!
Make sure you snag your own this week for just $3.50, Third Eye Faithful!

THE ODD WAR OF DIMENSION Z CONTINUES IN THIS WEDNESDAY'S
We are so loving Rick Remender & John Romita Jr's incredible run of CAPTAIN AMERICA, it's ridiculous. The weird blend of psychotronic Jack Kirby magic that Remender and Rmoita bring to the modern Marvel Universe here is an incredible dynamic, and really makes the book a joy to read.
I cannot remember a time when I enjoyed Captain America this much, seriously. It hasn't been since the early Brubaker days during WINTER SOLDIER, that I've dug the book this much.
After having been tricked into the weird world of Dimension Z, Steve Rogers finds himself fighting on a hostile, alien world as he attempts to protect a young child from the evil machinations of Arnim Zola.

YOU CANNOT HANDLE THE LEVEL OF ADORABLE THAT RESIDES WITHIN!
From the Publishers of ATOMIC ROBO!
Folks, every so often, an indie gem will shine out to us, and really catch our eye, and BODIE TROLL is one of those little oddities that really stands out.
Bringing a unique blend of strong, and smart storytelling ala STUFF OF LEGEND, MOUSE GUARD, the AMULET and more together with a over-the-top uber-cutesy style, BODIE TROLL is the only troll who really just plain sucks at their job of, well, being a troll.
In the fairytale village of Hagadorn lurks Bodie Troll, a fuzzy little grump who wants to be big and scary but is doomed to be cute and cuddly, and no help from his Fairy Godmother, employer, or barmaid-bestfriend can change that.
But what Bodie lacks in terror, he makes up for in mischief. Silly and suspenseful adventures await just beyond his bridge.

LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN ARTIST KEVIN O'NEILL'S MARSHAL LAW RETURNS TO PRINT IN A NEW, DELUXE EDITION THIS WEDNESDAY WITH MARSHAL LAW: THE DELUXE EDITION HC.
Before THE BOYS, before IRREDEEMABLE, there was
MARSHAL LAW!

HE-MAN AND THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE GOES ONGOING IN A NEW MONTHLY SERIES KICKING OFF THIS WEDNESDAY WITH HE-MAN & THE MASTERS OF THE UNVIERSE #1
As a child of the '80s, I've got a major soft spot for pretty much anything He-Man-related, and I'm totally stoked to see this new ongoing HE-MAN series hitting the racks this week!
While the Masters of the Universe mourn the loss of a fallen friend, Hordak infiltrates Eternia!
Featuring the Return of She-Ra, now known as Despara, the most lethal weapon in Hordak's army, she's made her return to Eternia as He-Man's deadliest enemy to date.
A fantastic modern spin on a classic world, the new HE-MAN ongoing looks to be pretty darn kick-ass.

REVIVAL CONTINUES TO BE ONE OF OUR FAVORITE IMAGE READS WITH THIS WEDNESDAY'S REVIVAL #9
REVIVAL continues to be one of our favorite IMAGE titles on the stands. One part rural crime noir ala FARGO or NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN, and one part utterly chilling horror in the vein of THE EXORCIST -- this series manages to blend the horror and thriller genres into one compelling read with some of the best written characters in comics today.
What's REVIVAL all about? For one day in rural central Wisconsin, the dead came back to life. Now it's up to Officer Dana Cypress to deal with the media scrutiny, religious zealots, and government quarantine that has come with them.
In a town where the living have to learn to deal with those who are supposed to be dead, Officer Cypress must solve a brutal murder, and everyone, alive or undead, is a suspect.
Eerie as all get out, REVIVAL is one of our current faves, and we highly recommend it.
