New Ice Cream Man alert! Each new issue always feels like a special event because of how great this long-running series is. With a tale ominously named “Escape from Garyland,” it looks like we’re getting a haunting story about clones.

If there’s one truth in the world of Newburn, it’s that The Black Castle knows everything. In the organization’s eyes, death is the ultimate answer to the toughest problems. So, for Newburn himself, it’s looking like the end of the road. You don’t want to miss this thrilling new issue of Zdarsky and Phillips’ hit noir series!

Zoe Thorogood’s hit Hack/Slash series is back! This latest issue has Cassie and the Agency discovering a dangerous slasher who's responsible for corrupting children to murder their own families. While Cassie assumes it’s brainwashing, it seems like there are much darker forces at play. Because this is part three of a four-issue miniseries, each issue cannot be missed!
