This Week's Highlights at Third Eye Comics for Wednesday 1/7/15

Marvel's ANT-MAN debuts in his new ongoing series with ANT-MAN #1 from BEDLAM & MORNING GLORIES scribe NICK SPENCER!

With the ANT-MAN film on the way, you're not gonna wanna miss this incredible new series featuring Marvel's most underrated hero!
We are so amped about all the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase 3 stuff, and I gotta tell you: just like no one believed that they could make the Guardians of the Galaxy cool many moons ago -- you're probably thinking the same thing about ANT-MAN right now, aren't you? It's OK, we won't judge. You can tell us. 
Seriously though, ANT-MAN is by far one of the most complex, and multifaceted characters in the Marvel Universe, and with the new ANT-MAN film on the way, along with some serious screen-time in AGE OF ULTRON, you're going to want to know everything you can about the saga of Hank Pym and Scott Lang.
In this killer new series by MORNING GLORIES and BEDLAM writer NICK SPENCER, Scott Lang shows that he's never exactly been the world's best super hero. Heck, most people don't even think he's been the best ANT-MAN -- and the last guy invented Ultron and joined the Masters of Evil, so that's saying something! 
But, when the Superior Iron Man calls with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Scott's going to get a chance to turn it all around and be the hero he's always dreamed of ebing! 
Sure, he's been to prison! Sure, he's been through a messy divorce! Sure, he's been um... dead? But, this time is different -- this time, nothing will stop the astonishing ANT-MAN! 
This was a super-fun read, Third Eye Faithful, and it reminded us a lot in tone and style of Marvel's stellar HAWKEYE series. Give it a shot this week, and find out why we're all about ANT-MAN.

SEX CRIMINALS & HAWKEYE Writer MATT FRACTION's ODY-C continues with ODY-C #2! 

This modern day sci-fi reinventing of the Odyssey is amazing!
We loved the debut of ODY-C last month from Matt Fraction & Christian Ward, and we cannot wait to get our hands on ODY-C #2 this week at Third Eye! 
In issue #2, Odyssia and her crew are tempted by the deadly and dangerous Lotus Eaters, living sources of the most powerful narcotic in the galaxy.
What's ODY-C about? An epic 26 centuries in the making: in the aftermath of a galactic war a hundred years long, Odyssia the Clever Champion and her compatriots begin their strangest, longest trip yet: the one home. 
This gender-bent, eye-popping psychedelic science fiction odyssey re-imagines the classic ODYSSEY story in a way we've never seen before! A must-read!
Wanna get on board? We've got issue 1 in stock to catch you up to this week's issue 2!

Everybody loves SQUIRREL GIRL! Check out THE UNBEATABLE SQUIRREL GIRL #1 this Wednesday!

The cult of Squirrel Girl has been growing for quite some time, and after some totally awesome appearances in DEADPOOL and AVENGERS, we knew it was only a matter of time until this cult favorite Marvel character got her own series to show off just how awesome she is!
Ryan North (ADVENTURE TIME, MIDAS FLESH) teams up with the very talented Erica Henderson to bring the world of Squirrel Girl to life! 
What do Dr. Doom, Deadpool and Thanos have in common? Uhm, SQUIRREL GIRL HAS BEEN THEM ALL! TRUE STORY! 
She may not be the world's most popular super hero. Heck, most people don't even know she exists. But, she loves being Squirrel Girl, helping folks, and saving the world (Even though most people don't know it!).
However, now, she faces an enemy more terrifying than anything she's ever faced before: COLLEGE!
Prepare for misadventures in higher education as Squirrel Girl and her best friend / sidekick Tippy-Toe venture across the Marvel Universe for brand new adventures that will see these two square off against some of the baddest baddies around! 
Imagine the irreverent humor of BEE AND PUPPYCAT mixed with the MARVEL UNIVERSE, and that sums up SQUIRREL GIRL perfectly!

SPIDER-VERSE continues with Chapter 4 in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #12 this Wednesday! 

Oh man, holy crap, how freakin' great is SPIDER-VERSE these days? We are absolutely and positively hooked on this incredible SPIDER-MAN arc which may be the coolest thing we've seen done with the Wallcrawler since SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN! 
In this week's issue #12, the first huge battle goes down, and folks, if those first few fights were just skirmishes, then that can't mean anything good for the Spiders.
Miles Morales shows what he can do; Silk finds something valuable on her run; and, we meet the most surprising Spider-Character yet! 
Wanna get caught up on SPIDER-VERSE? We've got chapters 1-3 in stock now (AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 9,10,11) as well as all the tie-ins to get you up to date!

Marvel's incredible new ANGELA series continues with ANGELA ASGARD'S ASSASSIN #2!

We're totally loving the direction that WICKED + DIVINE writer KIERON GILLEN and co-writer MARGUERITTE BENNET are taking with their stellar new ANGELA series, and we cannot wait to read more! 
In issue #2, we're going to find out just what made runaway Angela return to grimy old Earth? 
Hint: it probably involves fighting. She likes to fight. 
Seriously though: another great issue, featuring gorgeous artwork courtesy of Stephanie Hans, ANGELA: ASGARD'S ASSASSIN is definitely recapturing the same kind of magic that Gillen first brought to Asgard with his Kid Loki-centric JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY run!

This past Fall, we know a ton of you folks loved the awesome NO MORE BULLYING variants Marvel did, which brought awareness to fighting bullying in schools nationwide.
This week, Marvel is doing something really cool with their new AVENGERS: NO MORE BULLYING one-shot. 
In AVENGERS: NO MORE BULLYING, the Avengers have always stood up for those who cannot stand up for themselves, but this time they're in for a bombastic adventure of the highest order!

Image hit series BIRTHRIGHT continues with this Wednesday's BIRTHRIGHT #4!

Catch up on this incredible new series from NAILBITER writer JOSHUA WILLIAMSON!
 
We're loving the new IMAGE series BIRTHRIGHT, which continues the tradition that books like FABLES began, of great modern day fantasy stories blending with real world drama. 
In issue #4, the question is asked: how do you adjust to the real world after living in a war zone for half your life? 
Mikey Rhodes and his family will find out firsthand, as danger from Terrenos presents itself on Earth in a major way!
What's BIRTHRIGHT all about? For the Rhodes family, losing their son was the most devastating thing that could have occurred, but it couldn't prepare them for what happened when he returned! 
Fantasy is turned into reality in this incredible new series from the same writer who brings us the chilling NAILBITER series! A must-read; we've got issues 1-3 in stock now to catch you up to this week's issue #4!

The entire DEATH OF WOLVERINE saga arrives in hardcover this Wednesday featuring CHARLES SOULE & OLD MAN LOGAN artist STEVE MCNIVEN!

One of the most awesome reads of 2014 had to have been DEATH OF WOLVERINE by CHARLES SOULE (INHUMAN, SUPERMAN WONDER WOMAN, LETTER 44) and STEVE MCNIVEN (CIVIL WAR, OLD MAN LOGAN). 
Folks: the hype was big on this one, but the story that came from it, was even bigger, and not only did it deliver -- but it exceeded expectations! 
In DEATH OF WOLVERINE, all roads must end somewhere, and every hero's story eventually comes to a close.
For Logan, the century-old mutant known as Wolverine, taht time is now. The loss of his healing factor and the traumatic events of THREE MONTHS TO DIE (in stock now in graphic novel and single issue!), have all led to this: the single most important X-Men event of the decade! 
Through the years, LOGAN has been a warrior, a hero, a renegade, ad savage, a samurai, a teacher -- and so much more.
Logan has spent decades being the best there is at what he does, but even the best fade away eventually!
And, now, the X-Men's greatest hero will play a role he's never played before in this solemn special event by superstars CHARLES SOULE and STEVE MCNIVEN!
A must-read, Third Eye Faithful, make sure you snag your copy this week at Third Eye!

The new ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK comic continues with ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK #2!

BOOM Studios first blew us away with their stellar BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA ongoing series, and now, they're doing it all over again with the totally killer ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK comics!
In ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK #2, between the escalation of World War III and being Number One on America's Most Wanted List, Snake Plisken jumps borders and finds himself in the seceded nation of Florida! 
While he may have escaped the USPF, Snake finds himself in the middle of a whole new level of political corruption.
We're loving this exploration of the world of ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, and the guys at Boom are doing such a great job, you can almost hear John Carpenter's trademark synth-heavy soundtracks underneath the story!
Wanna hop on board? We've got issue 1 in stock now to catch you up!

Fans of AMULET, AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER and MIKE MIGNOLA check out FEATHERS #1 this Wednesday!

This one caught our eye, and we're super glad it did -- because issue #1 was amazing!
A must-read for fans of things like AVATAR THE LAST AIRBENDER, THE AMULET, and the aesthetic of Mike Mignola's HELLBOY and BPRD, Feathers is a fantastic new series that will appeal to fans of all ages. 
In FEATHERS, a recluse boy named Poe, covered in feathers, must help his first ever friend, a young girl named Bianca, as she tries to return to her home beyond the slums of the Maze.
They must dodge street gangs and childsnatchers along the way, and perhaps together, they'll learn the secrets to Poe's mysterious past.
A great blend of urban fantasy, and occult adventure, FEATHERS is a must-read, and we cannot recommend it highly enough!

Dark Horse's LADY KILLER #1 debuts this Wednesday featuring art by Helheim's JOELLE JONES!! 

We were huge fans of Joelle Jones's incredible artwork on the Oni Press series HELHEIM, so when we saw she had something new on the way with LADY KILLER, we knew we had to check it out!
In LADY KILLER, Josie Schuller is a picture-perfect homemaker, wife, and mother -- but, she's also a ruthless, efficient killer for hire! 
This brand new original comedy series combines the wholesome imagery of early 1960s domestic bliss with a tightening web of murder, paranoia, and cold-blooded murder! 
A fantastic dark comedy dripping in blood, and style, LADY KILLER was awesome! Snag a copy this week and try it out!

The Road to Marvel's upcoming SECRET WARS event begins here!
OK, Third Eye Faithful, we know that after the WINTER SOLDIER film came out last year, a ton of you guys got REAL into Marvel's SHIELD series, and as such, your interest in the world of Coulson and crew grew a lot.
Well, you're not alone, because after the big Hydra reveal, we became hooked as well, and ever since, we've been in love with the show.
Now, a comic inspired by the direction of AGENTS OF SHIELD is launching, but delivering all new stories set IN THE MARVEL UNIVERSE, and affecting the major players of the Marvel U, and we cannot wait to see more!
IN SHIELD #1, high-tech weapons, high stakes missions, and high octane adventure are just another day in the life.
Now, with Special Agent Phil Coulson bringing together the best and brightest, the gifted and the elite, both normal humans and superhumans, from all across the Marvel U, a team has been put together to confront, combat, and cutail dangers beyond the scope of any conventional peace-keeping force!

Image's hit series EAST OF WEST begins a new arc with issue #16 (the first issue to follow after TPB VOL.3)! Jump on board the monthly series w/ this huge issue! Featuring 9 covers to choose from!

Want to snag all 9 covers of this milestone issue? Pick up one of our EAST OF WEST #16 Cover Bundles for only $34.99 & save 15%! Never Read East of West? Snag Volume 1 for 25% OFF the $9.99 cover price this Wednesday!
We LOVE Jonathan Hickman and Nick Dragotta's incredible EAST OF WEST series, and when we saw that a new arc would be kicking off in issue #16, we knew we had to remind you guys of this.
So, we can pretty much assume that if you're already reading EAST OF WEST, then you don't need us to convince you of WHY we love it -- in fact, all we can say is that if you're doing the trade paperbacks, and have been waiting to hop onto the monthly joy of getting a new one each and every month -- then, now's your chance, as issue #16 picks up right after volume 3's trade paperback.
However, for those of you NOT reading EAST OF WEST, here's where we start preaching!
In this week's issue #16, the Apocalypse YEAR TWO begins, as we follow the dramatic conclusion to YEAR ONE, and the Great Beast now roams the fractured United States of America.
Deep into an all-consuming war between the splintered nations, the Four Horsemen move to further their individual agendas while resisting the inevitability of the Message.
So, WHAT'S EAST OF WEST ABOUT? Well, here's the deal: in an alternate history, at the height of the Civil War, things change drastically when the world is introduced a lot earlier to the power of Nuclear Doom.
The war never ends, the Four Horsemen are born, and as such, we're taken into a far future where the United States is known as the Seven Nations.
This dystopian, post-apoclayptic SCI-FI Western is a unique blend of Blade Runner, and the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly and we love every second of it.
And, who're the good guys? Famine. Conquest. War. And, of course, DEATH.
If you love sweeping Image masterpieces like SAGA, LOW, and more, then you'll be totally hooked on EAST OF WEST.

 1smalleowStart reading EAST OF WEST with EAST OF WEST VOL.1! Save 25% on Volume 1 (normally $9.99!) this Wednesday with our special NEW YEAR'S EAST OF WEST Promotion!

We love EAST OF WEST so much, that we want to give you even more reason to try it out this week, so this Wednesday ONLY, we're offering a special promotion on EAST OF WEST VOL.1, where you can purchase VOLUME 1 for 25% OFF the cover price of $9.99!

This week, it's a crossover that NO ONE saw coming: STAR TREK: the hope for the best of mankind's future! PLANET OF THE APES: a chilling look at the fall of humanity!
How could these worlds possibly collide? What could possibly cause Captain Kirk and the crew of hte Enterprise to side with Dr. Zaius to protect Ape city? And, what does Colonel George Taylor have to say about it?

This Week's Highlights at Third Eye Comics for Wednesday 4/2/14

DEADPOOL VS. CARNAGE #1 KICKS OFF THIS WEDNESDAY, AS TWO OF MARVEL'S MOST MASSIVE MADMEN COLLIDE!
Meet writer CULLEN BUNN at Third Eye on Saturday 4/26 & get your copy signed!
OK, Third Eye Faithful, we're gonna tell ya: we love Deadpool, and we love Carnage.

So, when we saw that the very talented Cullen Bunn (Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe, Deadpool Killustrated, Deadpool Kills Deadpool, Sixth Gun, Helheim and more!) was going to be heading up a 4-part mini limited series featuring the Merc with a Mouth going up against the mass murderer turned symbiote powerhouse -- we knew it was going to rule.

It's gonna be red vs. red, as these two crimson-clad madmen go head to head, and you just know the blood is going to spray freely with characters like Deadpool and Carnage clashing.

It's good crazy vs. bad crazy, once and for all, and folks, we're totally amped to see how this one plays out.

Meet DEADPOOL VS. CARNAGE writer CULLEN BUNN at Third Eye & get your copy signed on Saturday 4/26!
We're so stoked for this upcoming series that we had to do something special to celebrate, and we're going to be bringing writer CULLEN BUNN to Third Eye on Saturday 4/26 to sign copies of DEADPOOL VS. CARNAGE, as well as his other works, including the Deadpool Killogy (DEADPOOL KILLS MARVEL, KILLUSTRATED, KILLS DEADPOOL), Night of the Living Deadpool, and of course, HELHEIM and SIXTH GUN!

HOT ON THE HEELS OF SUPERMAN WONDER WOMAN #6 COMES THE BIGGEST SUPERMAN STORY WE'VE SEEN SINCE NEW 52 BEGAN... SUPERMAN: DOOMED kicks off with a special PRELUDE in ACTION COMICS #30 this Wednesday!
Folks, we know many of you guys, after being turned onto Charles Soule's incredible SUPERMAN WONDER WOMAN story with that huge issue #6 a few weeks ago, are totally amped for WHAT'S NEXT, right?

Well, here it is... kicking off in this week's ACTION COMICS #30, we get to see Doomsday make his huge New 52 debut, and folks: we cannot wait.

While it remains unclear if the DEATH OF SUPERMAN arc still remains as it was in the original series in the NEW 52, what we do know is that DOOMSDAY has never looked this cool before... ever. Seriously: this Doomsday is brutal.

In last month's SUPERMAN WONDER WOMAN #6, the big Faora & Zod arc hit it's peak, as Superman and Wonder Woman literally split an atom and cause a nuclear explosion, in an attempt to stop Zod's forces from storming through the Phantom Zone and into our world.

However: a dormant Doomsday has crossed over from the Phantom Zone, and this Doomsday is more vicious, more ruthless, than anything we've ever seen.

If you've been following SUPERMAN WONDER WOMAN (As you should, it's amazing!) and liking what Charles Soule has been doing in that title -- then we cannot recommend hopping on the DOOMED crossover with it's official prelude in this week's ACTION COMICS #30.

It all kicks off here... and, our biggest question is this: will this lead to a similar fate as Superman once met before? Could we see the Man of Steel bite the dust again, or will his reintroduction to Doomsday be a lot different this time through?

Wanna get some background on all this? We've got issues 1-6 of SUPERMAN WONDER WOMAN in stock now to get you up to speed on just what sparked everything!

PURE ZOMBIE MAYHEM SET AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF THE VIETNAM WAR ERUPTS IN '68: RULE OF WAR #1 THIS WEDNESDAY
Image Comics puts out some pretty gnarly stuff, and the stand-alone zombie horror sagas that have ran through their '68 series have always kept us hooked.

Now, with a new-reader friendly jumping on point, and a brand new series, '68 returns, and we couldn't be more pumped.

In '68 RULE OF WAR #1, a doom-shadowed Cambodia is infested with the living dead, CIA Special Agent Declan Rule and his canine companion Nero are stalking a human monster, a neurosurgeon bent on carrying out grisly experiments that turn Prisoners of War into vicious instruments of war.

In Vietnam, Private Kuen Yam and his ragtag band of survivors battle their way across a murderous no-man's-land in a desperate search for a ticket to the skies.

The war is over, but the battle for humanity's survival has just begun.

Courage will be tested, sanity will be pushed to the breaking point, and the rules of war.... will be broken!

What has always made the '68 comics a real treat is the gorgeous art, and Jeff Zornow does zombies right, folks, trust us.

Pick up '68 RULE OF WAR #1 and give it a shot!

RICK REMENDER, writer of DEADLY CLASS, continues to impress with BLACK SCIENCE #5 this Wednesday
If H.R Giger directed the TV series COSMOS... it'd be BLACK SCIENCE.
We are huge fans of writer Rick Remender, and the excellent work he's done on books like FEAR AGENT, DEADLY CLASS, and UNCANNY X-FORCE, so it should be no surprise that BLACK SCIENCE is a big-time Third Eye favorite!

In issue #5, Grant discovers the truth about the Pillar's sabotage, tearing his team apart just as they are launched into a dimension of mad gravity and violent monkey ghosts!

How do you survive insanity when you can't trust anyone around you?

That's the question that Grant finds himself faced with.

What's BLACK SCIENCE all about?  Anarchist scientist Grant McKay has done the impossible. Using the Pillar, he has punched a hole through the barriers between dimensions, allowing travel to all possible universe.

Problem is: Grant and his team are trapped in the folds of infinity, the Pillar sending them carrying through a million universes of unimaginable adventure, sanity-flaying danger, and no way home!

Folks: we love this one! Remender kills it, and artist Matteo Scalera is top notch here.

Wanna get into it? We've got issues 1-5 in stock now to catch you up.

MARVEL NOW WAVE 2: CHARLES SOULE and SUPERSTAR ARTIST JOE MADUREIRA (BATTLE CHASERS, DARK SIDERS) DELIVER THE MOST EXCITING MARVEL ONGOING OF 2014 with INHUMAN #1
Folks, I cannot tell you how stoked I am for this series -- seriously: I CAN'T. OK, I lied, because I'm about to tell you now just how stoked I am.

In INHUMAN, we're going to be seeing one of the most innovative, most exciting, and most ground-breaking titles to launch out of Marvel Now Wave 2, and I gotta tell ya, folks: you are not going to want to miss this one.

In INHUMAN, the newest superheroes of the Marvel Universe will be born! A cloud of Terrigen mist is moving around the world, and it's turning regular folks into Inhumans with amazing abilities.

But, not everyone thinks this is such a great idea -- and, that's where things get really interesting.

There's not a whole lot we can tell you guys about WHAT goes down inside this one, as there's some MAJOR spoilers that impact the Marvel U as a whole, but we will say this: discover the secret history of the Marvel Universe and get in on the ground floor of the biggest thing to hit the Marvel Universe since Giant-Size X-Men #1 brought us that classic X-Men team line-up of Wolverine, Storm, Colossus and more.

PLUS: it's got one hell of a creative team. CHARLES SOULE, who has wowed us big-time on books like SUPERMAN WONDER WOMAN, LETTER 44, and SHE-HULK is bringing his A game here, and artist JOE MAD is a true comics superstar, whether it's his X-Men work you love, or his creator-owned BATTLE CHASERS stuff, or heck, even his video game work on DARK SIDERS.

A SPECIAL FUTURE'S END PRELUDE IN AQUAMAN AND THE OTHERS #1 DEBUTS THIS WEDNESDAY, DELIVERING A FANTASTIC NEW COMPANION SERIES TO THE FLAGSHIP AQUAMAN TITLE!
AQUAMAN has been one of the most consistently kick-ass, and top notch DC New 52 titles since it's debut, and we gotta say: if any character has room for a second book, it's the King of the Seas.

Now, the fact that one of our favorite characters of the DCU is getting a second ongoing series, is reason enough to celebrate, but this issue has other significance as well.

And, what's that you may ask?

DC's HUGE summer event that's going to follow up the events of FOREVER EVIL, and lead us into this September's EPIC 5 Years Later storyline, FUTURE'S END, will be getting a very special Prelude in this week's AQUAMAN AND THE OTHERS #1.

So, not only are you getting an incredible new adventure for Aquaman, but you're also going to be getting a crucial prelude chapter to the upcoming FUTURE'S END event which is going to shake the DCU to it's very core.

GARTH ENNIS, writer of PREACHER, CROSSED, ROVER RED CHARLIE, THE BOYS, PUNISHER MAX & more, DEBUTS THE MOST HORRIFYING SCI-FI STORY YOU'VE EVER READ WITH CALIBAN #1 THIS WEDNESDAY!
Third Eye Faithful, you know us. We're a buncha horror movie heads here at the shop, and we LOVE a good sci-fi / horror hybrid ala EVENT HORIZON, ALIENS and John Carpenter's THE THING.

By now, many of you also know that we are HUGE fans of the writer GARTH ENNIS, who has wowed us with epics like PREACHER, THE BOYS, and an incredible run on PUNISHER MAX.

So, when we saw that Ennis would be working with AVATAR PRESS, the publisher of CROSSED & NEONOMICON, to deliver something truly frightening and downright alien... we knew we had to give it some love.

In CALIBAN, master storyteller Garth Ennis delivers a new haunting epic of science fiction-charged horror.

The crew of the Caliban travels hyperspace on nothing more than a routine trip for the giant vessel.

Just human beings that have been inside a bit too long, confident of no other life in the Galaxy, and all the vastness of space to remind them how far they are from home.

But, when an impossible accident suddenly causes the Caliban to slam into an abandoned alien ship, a nightmare in space begins to unfold.

Ennis delivers his unique brand of flawed characters, spot on dialog, and trademark flare for the unexpected in a new series in the vein of ALIEN.

This is the beginning of the end for the crew of the Caliban.

Folks: this is going to be awesome! Check it out this week at Third Eye!

IT'S OLDBOY MEETS BREAKING BAD IN NEW IMAGE SERIES "THE FIELD", DEBUTING THIS WEDNESDAY FROM IMAGE COMICS!
Meet creators ED BRISSON (SHELTERED) & SIMON ROY (PROPHET) at Third Eye on Saturday 6/21!
We're super pumped for this new IMAGE series, which kicks off this week at Third Eye, bringing together two of the fastest rising stars in Image's line-up: SHELTERED writer ED BRISSON and PROPHET artist SIMON ROY.

We totally dig both these guys work, and to have them working together on one book is HUGE.

So, what's THE FIELD all about? A man wakes in a field wearing nothing but his underwear. He's got no idea who he is or how he got there. His only connection to the outside world is a cell phone on which he receives mysterious texts warning him of impending danger.

Danger like Christian, an ex-bible salesman in the middle of a crime-spree fueled by meth, murder, and keeping this nameless and past less man near by.

The first issue was uber creepy, while super fast paced at the same time, delivering a really exciting debut.

Snag yourself a copy this week at Third Eye, and hang onto it, so you can get it signed in June at our big signing with SIMON ROY & ED BRISSON!

Third Eye Faithful: you all saw that epic Guardians of the Galaxy trailer a month or two ago, right?

It looks amazing, right?

We agree.

So, you're probably asking yourself: OK, but who are these guys? What's their deal?

Here's the answer to your question, as Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.1 COSMIC AVENGERS arrives this Wednesday at Third Eye, collecting the first story arc of Bendis & McNiven / Pichelli's epic relaunch of GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY.

Reading like Joss Whedon's FIREFLY in the MARVEL UNIVERSE, Guardians of the Galaxy has quickly shot it's way to the top of everyone's stack as a consistently killer Marvel read, and we highly recommend checking it out in graphic novel if you haven't yet jumped on board.

In Guardians VOL.1, we learn that there's a new rule in the galaxy: no one touches Earth.

But, why has Earth suddenly become the most important planet in the galaxy?

That's what the Guardians are going to find out? Join Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket Raccoon, Groot -- and the Invincible Iron man, as they embark upon one of the most explosive and eye-opening sagas the Marvel Universe has seen.

In MOON KNIGHT, Marc Spector is MOON KNIGHT -- or is he?

It's hard to tell these days, especially when New York's wildest vigilante protects the streets with two-fisted justice.. and three, that's right, count 'em -- three different personalities!

We really dug the first issue of this one, and are pretty amped for where this series from the publishers of DAYMEN and IRREDEEMABLE is going to take us.

VERTIGO'S BRAND NEW SERIES, HINTERKIND, ARRIVES IN GRAPHIC NOVEL THIS WEDNESDAY FOR ONLY $9.99 WITH HINTERKIND VOLUME 1 THE WAKING WORLD TPB, COLLECTING 1-6
Vertigo has put out some great books this past year, and one of our favorites is the new series HINTERKIND, which has a very FABLES-esque feel to it.

In a post-apocalyptic world where humans have been pushed to the edge of extinction by the creatures of fantasy an fables, the Hinterkind tells the story of one young woman's quest to fulfill her destiny and put the world right again.

Fifty seven years after an unspecified biological event has all but wiped out the human race, a green hand has moved over the face of the Earth.

Leaf, root, and shoot have steadfastly smothered the works of man, remorselessly grinding the concrete, glass and steel back into the minerals from whence they came.

Mother Nature is reclaiming what's rightfully hers -- but she's not the only one.

The Hinterkind have returned. They come from hiding places in the lost corners of the world: Centaurs, Satyrs, Elves, Dwarves, Ogres, Trolls, Werewolves, Vampires..

And, they're pissed at humanity as a whole.

After millennia of being hunted to near extinction through fear and ignorance, they've returned from the great forests and deserts, and mankind are the ones who are finding it necessary to hide.

KICK-ASS stuff, folks -- get it for only $9.99 this week at Third Eye!
