New Books that are coming out that look interesting

Black by Kwanza Osajyefo

 

In a world that already hates and fears them - what if only Black people had superpowers. After miraculously surviving being gunned down by police, a young man learns that he is part of the biggest lie in history. Now he must decide whether it's safer to keep it a secret or if the truth will set him free.

 

 

As sad as it is to say, with everything going on (and I am not bringing politics or anything into this discussion) this book might hit the news outlets and be picked up by CNN/MSNBC/FOX NY TIMES, ETC.

 

It's being put out by Black Mask Comics (studios? I've seen them go by both)

Animosity #1

Aftershock Comics: August 3, 2016 Writer: Marguerite Bennett Art: Rafael de Latorre Cover: Rafael de Latorre

Cover Price: $3.99 UPC: 66257827206900111 Diamond ID: JUN161065 GCIN: 958065

One day, the Animals woke up. They started thinking. They started talking. They started taking revenge. Now, a dog and his girl are trying to get away--out of New York City, and all the way to San Francisco, to the only person who might be able to protect and save her. From the writer of INSEXTS A-FORCE, and BOMBSHELLS and the artist of SUPERZERO, comes a new kind of road trip, a new kind of black comedy, and a new kind of coming-of-age.

Frostbite #1

 

DC Comics: September 28, 2016 Writer: Joshua Williamson Art: Jason Shawn Alexander Cover: Jason Shawn Alexander

 

Cover Price: $3.99 UPC: 76194133988700111 Diamond ID: JUL160428 GCIN: 959320

 

Long after Earth has entered its second ice age, humanity has learned to cope with the frozen elements. In this cold and bleak future, heat is power, and brutal gangs roam the icy wasteland looking for it. If that wasn't enough, a terrible disease nicknamed 'frostbite' is literally freezing people from the inside out. Once you catch it, the effect is instantaneous. There is no immunity, there is no cure. Until now. Doctor Henry Bonham and his daughter Victoria have found the key to ending frostbite. If they can get from Mexico City to a secret government outpost in Alcatraz, they could stabilize life across the globe. But to do that they'll need to stay alive. That's where Keaton comes in. She and her crew have faced worse journeys before, but never with the potential consequences this one poses if they fail. A new miniseries from acclaimed writer Joshua Williamson (The Flash: Rebirth; Nailbiter) and artist Jason Shawn Alexander (Empty Zone; BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY), FROSTBITE is a science-fiction action miniseries unlike any other.

Lost Boys #1

DC Comics: October 12, 2016

Writer: Tim Seeley Art: Scott Godlewski Cover: Tony Harris

 

The stakes are raised in this nostalgic and unstoppable sequel to the '80s cult classic vampire film, The Lost Boys. Veteran horror writers Tim Seeley (GRAYSON, NIGHTWING, Hack/Slash), and Scott Godlewski (THE DARK & BLOODY, Copperhead) deliver a gruesome and stylish return to the bloody boardwalks and big hair of 1987! Santa Carla, California is on edge. The eccentric coastal town and haven for the undead was finally returning to 'normal' after its last supernatural scuffle left the local coven's head vampire dead and gave newcomers Michael and Sam Emerson a housewarming both violent and bizarre. Now the brothers must once again team up with militant vampire hunters Edgar and Allan Frog when a new gang of ruthless, stunning, life-sucking nightcrawlers known as the Blood Belles emerges from the aftermath to collect Michael's love interest and their lost sister, Star.

Is there a, 'What are you picking up this week?' thread?

 

Not sure if this is the best place for this, but noticed they're rebooting Nova again with the return of a much-loved character. Anyone tempted?
