THE HUNTER BECOMES THE HUNTED!

It takes a lot to scare a bloodthirsty vampire, but as Ada’s island adventure continues, the true nature of her mysterious foe finally comes into focus, and she’s in way over her head. . . . Or at least, that’s what she’d like them to think. But can she turn the tables on her enemy without falling prey to the angry islanders who are starting to find the corpses left in her wake? Seems there’s nowhere to run . . . but you know what they say about cornering a dangerous predator: Blood will run!

EC’s SUMMER OF FEAR digs in deep as Hugo Award nominee Corinna Bechko (Sister Imperator) and superstar artist Andrea Sorrentino (Gideon Falls) bring a crimson-red high tide rushing into the historic, first-ever standalone horror series from the immortal EC Comics.

YOU CAN’T ESCAPE THIS GAME, EVEN IN YOUR DREAMS. Acclaimed creators Zac Thompson (Into the Unbeing—Parts 1 & 2) and Daniel Irrizari

(Judge Dredd, XINO) enter an synapse-shredding new level of the groundbreaking science-horror hybrid that began with CEMETERY KIDS DON’T DIE!

One year ago, four friends barely escaped the unrelenting terror of the video game called Nightmare Cemetery. After spending endless hours locked into the innovative Dreamwave—the first gaming console played entirely while you sleep—in order to save one of their own from the game’s all-too-real consequences, they survived . . . barely.

But after their harrowing rescue, they’ve decided they’ve had enough of Nightmare Cemetery and its enigmatic final boss, the King of Sleep. That is, until the newest DLC, The Blighted Sprawl, suddenly appears online with a promise to reveal the truth of what actually lurks at the heart of Nightmare Cemetery’s digital darkness . . . and why its effects are now bleeding out into the real world in an array of bizarre and disturbing new ways.

The sold-out series that AiPT! called “compelling sci-fi horror . . . that feels closer to home than it should” returns with a perfect new jumping-on point for the series that challenges Stephen King, Clive Barker, and David Cronenberg to a three-way PVP deathmatch in a cyberpunk haunted house!

THE COMIC BOOK EVENT 13.7 BILLION YEARS IN THE MAKING IS JUST GETTING STARTED! Chaotically cosmic creators Daniel Kibblesmith (Loki) and Jarrett Williams (Speed Force) are about to turn everything you know about RICK AND MORTY upside down . . . along with several billion nebulae).

Wow, well. Rick and Morty have certainly %&$@ed things up.

The wedding is clearly off and the Parmesan Universe is out for blood. The Smith family find themselves on the run and they can’t even use portal tech to escape! The only person Rick and Morty can turn to now is Mr. Poopy Butthole, who is still harboring some hard feelings toward Rick. Sheesh, is there anyone Rick HASN’T pissed off?

Nevertheless, Rick will need his help in order to carry out his plan to REBOOT THE UNIVERSE. Did you think we were joking about this being an EVENT?!?
