(W) Rick Remender (A) Wes Craig
Hunted through the streets of Las Vegas, Marcus is about to learn a valuable lesson: sometimes the only way to wash away your past is with blood. Stylized violence featuring teenage assassins on acid! Don't miss the climax of the first arc of the smash-hit series DEADLY CLASS by RICK REMENDER & WES CRAIG.
(W/A) Nick Bertozzi
Ernest Shackleton was one of the last great Antarctic explorers, and he led one of the most ambitious Antarctic expeditions ever undertaken. This is his story, and the story of the dozens of men who threw in their lot with him, many of whom nearly died in the unimaginably harsh conditions of the journey. It's an astonishing feat - and was unprecedented at the time - that all the men in the expedition survived. Nick Bertozzi has documented this remarkable journey with such wit and fiendish attention to detail that it's impossible not to get caught up in the drama of the voyage.
(W) Robert Kirkman (A) Paul Azaceta
NEW HORROR SERIES FROM THE WALKING DEAD CREATOR ROBERT KIRKMAN! Kyle Barnes has been plagued by demonic possession all his life and now he needs answers. Unfortunately, what he uncovers along the way could bring about the end of life on Earth as we know it.

And we are rockin' BARTKIRA this week cuz that sh*t is F*****ING awesome!!!
(W) Kieron Gillen (A) Jamie McKelvie
Every ninety years, twelve gods incarnate as teenagers. They are loved. They are hated. In two years, they are dead. The team behind critically thermonuclear floor-fillers Young Avengers and PHONOGRAM reunite to start a new ongoing superhero fantasy with a beautiful oversized issue. Welcome to THE WICKED + THE DIVINE, where gods are the ultimate pop-stars. But remember: just because you're immortal, doesn't mean you're going to live forever.
It takes a big person to admit when they were wrong and the last time Gillen/McKelvie put out a new book, well...I was friggin' wrong. Sure, people seemed to really enjoy it, but I felt that there was something missing that had drawn me to their first work PHONOGRAM all those years ago. Now back home at Image, the duo seeks to blend the two genres of their previous collaborations into one fantastical pop song of beautiful gods and goddesses doomed to burn out, but never fade away. What is the true reason these gods submit to what seems like such a one sided deal? Is fame, fortune and recognition worth more than an eternity of boring Immortality? Find out in the latest sold out hit from the wizards at Image Comics!!
(W/A) Paul Pope
From the mind of three-time Eisner Award-winner Paul Pope comes Escapo! Like a feverish mash-up of Fellini films, Heavy Metal magazine, and classic Jack Kirby comics, Escapo tells the tale of a circus escape artist extraordinaire, who can escape from any situation - even from Death himself! However, there is one force even more powerful than the Reaper which Escapo must face. A meditation on life, love, and mortality, Escapo is not to be missed! Originally published in 1999 and long out of print, the new Z2 edition of Escapo is fully colored and redesigned in the French BD format, featuring 50+ pages of bonus content. Included here is the rare two-page alternate ending, only seen in the French edition, as well as a new ten-page story and added pin-ups and sketchbook content by Paul Pope.
(W) Harlan Ellison & Various (A) J.K. Woodward
For the first time ever, a visual presentation of the much-discussed, unrevised, unadulterated version of Harlan Ellison's award-winning Star Trek teleplay script, "The City on the Edge of Forever!" This Hugo- and Writer's Guild of America Award-winning teleplay has been much discussed for decades but only here can you see the story as Mr. Ellison originally intended!
(W) Paul Allor (A) Ross Campbell

First stop: the prehistoric age, where they are far from the most dangerous reptiles around! Will the Turtles be able to find their way home without damaging history?

Continuing the exploration of the background and motivations of the major players in Fiffe's groundbreaking series, Issue #15 focuses on the enigmatic Gracie. Stuck in the middle of the city where she was born and raised, Gracie deviates from her Copra mission to catch up with some old friends.
COPRA #15 by Michel Fiffe
Copra is a team of misfit mercenaries who have just wrapped up a tragic transdimensional caper, cleared their name from a mass murder and saved the world from apocalyptic domination (in the first 12 issues). Some members died, some triumphed, some went their own ways. But the nightmare is far from being over. The focus now shifts to some of the key members of Copra.
With Morgan deathly ill due to the another breakout of the dastardly legacy virus that attacked him late last year and Will stuck in the equally nefarious Seattle traffic of yesterday, Anna and Casey were forced to pick up the slack and take center stage in what we are calling "Do robots pee?" or 'We wish we were as cool as Morgan" This episode was a lot of fun to do and we think you'll be pleasantly surprised with this new iteration of the dynamic duo!!
(W) Kazuo Koike (A) Hideki Mori
Kazuo Koike returns to Lone Wolf and Cub with an epic sequel, New Lone Wolf and Cub. Ogami Itto, the Lone Wolf, and his nemesis, Yagyu Retsudo, lie dead after their titanic duel. Ogami's young son, Daigoro, stays at his father's side, and none dares help the child-save Togo Shigetada, a samurai on a desperate and deadly mission of his own!
OK, I'm recommending this more on my absolute love for the original series than a guarantee that this new one will be badass. True, the original artist, Goeski Kojima has passed away, but this series sees Daigoro, Itto's son, take center stage, but will he grow to be a master assassin demon like his father or will he find his own path now that the Lone Wolf is dead? Epic samurai action set against the backdrop of ancient edo, Lone Wolf and Cub is one of the greatest human sagas to ever be put on paper and here's hoping that this book will continue the grand tradition set forth by its predecessor!

TWO COPS, ONE'S A ROBOT, ONLY THEY DON'T KNOW WHICH!

WARNING: Contains oversized patrol cars and perilous situations.

(W) Mark Millar (A) Goran Parlov

It's been 40 years since Duke last held a gun. Does he still have what it takes to drive out alien invaders and save Tantalus for a second time?
(W) Robert Venditti (A) Doug Braithwaite
This summer, Earth will be the greatest hunt of all when VALIANT FIRST unleashes the first issue of 2014's must-read crossover event - ARMOR HUNTERS - from superstar creators Robert Venditti (Green Lantern, The Flash) and Doug Braithwaite (Unity)!
A relentless and surgical strike team from the farthest reaches of space - sworn to exterminate the X-O Manowar armor and all like it - have found finally their final target. They will hunt. They will trap. They will kill. And they will rid the universe of the X-O Manowar's incalculable destructive power...even if it means taking the Earth with it.
In the tradition of HARBINGER WARS, Valiant's biggest heroes launch into the summer's blockbuster 18-issue crossover event right here in ARMOR HUNTERS #1 - and then take the fight to the world's first full-scale cosmic threat with UNITY #8 and X-O MANOWAR #26 in June, and ARMOR HUNTERS: BLOODSHOT and ARMOR HUNTERS: HARBINGER in July!
A very happy happy Wednesday to all you comic fans out there in video land!! While the CSSG team may still not be up to full power (our lovely Anna has better things to do apparently...) there is no less excitement in the staggering amount of awesome funnybooks that we have in store for you this week!!
Also, Video Monkey got a case of east coast fever or something (or he just started drinking too early in the day) and screwed up the date and episode number on this weeks' title card. Bad Monkey!!

Wow, just got in copies of Jeremy Eaton's "Jackass", of which Jim Woodring says "JACKASS...inaugurates an entirely new branch of the craft." And I think he means that in a really good way, because this little book is fantastic.

(W/A) Noel Freibert
What makes Weird get weirder? What started out as gothic paper tribute now rears its head as cyber serial killer stage note. Plenty of destructo and obligatory fashion anti-matter, Mr. Freibert's signature high-contrast Body Butter, and new wisps of unknown origin from the likes of Sua Yoo, CF, Andy Burkholder and Dash Shaw. NOT NORMAL, LOL

one of the scariest comics i've ever jammed
also funny
milburn gets it
horror comedy
whats the difference?
story starts like a lot of horror movies: teens go into the woods to drink and frolic
but what they find is like nothing known
nothing will be the same again
what's exciting is that we share the fright with the teens as we both discover the true weirdness milburn dishes
