Hi Comic Shop Friends! We had a great week of sales and events last week, with Late Nite, the End of Summer Sale, and the free comics at the West Side Market! We\u2019ve got a few more coming up in the next couple of months, so stay tuned for more info on those!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This email is kind of brief because we had a lot to do on Tuesday, with over half of this week\u2019s books coming in that morning, so I didn\u2019t have time to do a deep dive on everything! Stop in on Wednesday to see what else is good!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s the finale of The Infinity Watch, from Derek Landy and Salvador Larroca! It\u2019s the Avengers versus the Infinity Stone Bearers versus Thanos! Can the Stone Bearers manage to get along and work together long enough to defeat Thanos? It might be even harder with Thor and Captain Marvel trying to separate them before they become too powerful. And even harder when Thanos shows up to retrieve his lost love, the Death Stone!<\/p>\n\n\n

In 1996, writer Jeph Loeb and artist Tim Sale teamed up for Batman: The Long Halloween. Now, Loeb returns for its long-anticipated final act: Batman: The Last Halloween, an all-new 10-part mystery. In each issue, Loeb will be joined by one of the top artists in comics, in a tribute to Sale’s art and legacy. In issue one, Gotham City learns to fear Halloween once more as a terrible event threatens to destroy Jim Gordon’s life and puts Batman and Robin’s teamwork to the test more than ever before. In a city of liars, masked vigilantes, and criminals…can anyone be trusted? Featuring art by Eduardo Risso in issue #1.<\/p>\n\n\n

Ryan Stegman and Jason Howard\u2019s new DSTLRY title is an action-packed battle between demons and angels, with human Bryce Hunter stuck in the middle. Bryce\u2019s faith is shattered when he loses his job and finds his wife cheating on him with the bishop of their church. At the same time four demons escape from Hell and head to Earth. One, Uvydus, decides to possess Bryce to make up for the bad things they\u2019ve done. Bryce accepts the demon\u2019s offer to bond together when Uvydus helps him stand up for himself, but with a hardcore Exorcist team after them, and multiple demons trying to reshape Earth into their own kingdom, the new friends aren\u2019t going to have an easy time!<\/p>\n\n\n

Another Halloween season, another volume of Creepshow! It\u2019s back and creepier than ever! This time with two tales of terror!

The second, \u201cScrimshaw\u201d written and drawn by James Stokoe, follows a reporter looking for a good local story, and what he finds is a tale that starts with a severed hand, but where does it end?<\/p>\n\n\n
