Reading a series issue to issue is making a comeback, and to ensure that you can catch up on a story in one visit, we’re going to ensure that we have all issues of the major story-lines in stock at all times this summer. Starting with Original Sin #4! ​ Marvel’s murder mystery is a summer highlight, as Jason Aaron and Mike Deodato team up to lay all of Marvel’s secrets out for everyone to see. Who killed the Watcher? We’ll make sure we have issue #0-#2 in stock too!

One of my top 20 movies of all time. The ultimate anti hero written by Eric Powell (the Goon). I couldn’t have picked a better writer for this book. Boom has been nailing it lately with titles like Plainjanes, The Woods and Evil Empire. “What the hell is Gracie Law Doing Here?”
