ZATANNA - BRING DOWN THE HOUSE #5

Writer: Mariko Tamaki

Artist: Javier Rodriguez

Publisher: DC Comics

Cover Price: $5.99

Release Date: October 23, 2024 And now for her grand finale! Zatanna’s been hunted by demons, terrorized by warring factions of magic, whisked halfway across the world by anex—always running from the past rather than daring to face it down. But when it becomes clear that the ghost that haunts her lies in the kaleidoscope of childhood memories she’s tried so hard to forget, will she be able to turn back the clock to not just save herself but the very fabric of magic?

EXIT CITY #1

Writer: Mark London

Artist: Karl Mostert

Publisher: Mad Cave Studios

Cover Price: $4.99

Release Date: November 6, 2024 In Exit City, there's a thin line between good and evil, and Detectives McCormick and Miller are about to find out the hard way. When they come to the scene of a brutal accident, it becomes clear that the Major Crimes division was called in for a reason. With minimal evidence, McCormick and Miller must work together through a web of seedy criminals, genetic experiments, and a crooked government. But that's not the only thing standing in their way, McCormick is hiding a secret that would make anyone question his capabilities. Exit City is the third thrilling title in Underworld, an all-new universe created by Mark London which also includes Revolution 9 (launching in September) and Hour of the Wolf (launching in October). Each miniseries set within can be savored as a standalone serial, while serving as a stepping stone towards ENDLESS NIGHT, the must-read crossover guaranteed to blow your mind in 2025!

SOMETHING IS KILLING THE CHILDREN VOLUME 01

Writer: James Tynion IV

Artist: Werther Dell'Edera

Publisher: BOOM! Studios

Cover Price: $14.99

Release Date: May 26, 2020 IT’S THE MONSTERS WHO SHOULD BE AFRAID.

When the children of Archer's Peak—a sleepy town in the heart of America—begin to go missing, everything seems hopeless. Most children never return, but the ones that do have terrible stories—impossible details of terrifying creatures that live in the shadows. Their only hope of finding and eliminating the threat is the arrival of a mysterious stranger, one who believes the children and claims to be the only one who sees what they can see.

Her name is Erica Slaughter. She kills monsters. That is all she does, and she bears the cost because it must be done.
