Raise your hand if time has lost all meaning and you have no idea what month it is because you could have sworn some of this stuff was in Previews eight months ago…oh, right, that’s because of the pandemic! I forgot that was happening because my roommates keep bringing new people into the house. Well, anyway, for this super busy week I’m super excited for Aftershock’s LONELY RECEIVER (a woman slowly going crazy after her android girlfriend stops working), Boom’s WE ONLY FIND THEM WHEN THEY’RE DEAD (giant alien gods being used for fuel), Image’s INKBLOT (featuring a trouble-making cat), and the Nib’s new anthology, BE GAY DO COMICS (can’t tell what that one’s about). What looks good to YOU?

You would not believe how many boxes we’re getting from Diamond this week. Seriously, drop by on Tuesday and watch us weep. Anyway, we’re looking forward to the new series Locke and Key: In Pale Battalions Go, the return of Canto with its second season, and ahhhhhhh, a new Junji Ito collection! And Fantagraphics is, as usual, dropping a book we suspect will be sold out within hours of Wednesday morning: Julia Gfrörer's Vision, following a “spinster escaping the demands of life through a sexual relationship with a haunted mirror.” Sigh. Aren’t we all?

We're really struggling with the best way to list new comics each week, considering how little of this material we have shelf copies of these days, and how DC's are no longer in our Diamond shipments (seriously, it adds the whole extra layer of work to something as simple as a shipping list). I really enjoyed the first issue of ENGINEWARD, the Hickman X-Men machine starts running again with GIANT SIZE MAGNETO, and SAVAGE DRAGON hits #250! Much more under the cut; What looks good to YOU?

There's actually a solid amount of real comics coming out this week, despite us still being in curbside-only mode by the City of San Francisco. Despite the obvious B-word choices this week, I think the most interesting things coming out this week are ADVENTUREMAN from Fraction & Dodson, or possibly the dirty ol' FAITHLESS II from Azarello & Llovet. If you like that Conan action, then maybe it is that Euro-comics CIMMERIAN: RED NAILS. Many swell things on the book-side: 920LONDON or the new edition of LUTHER ARKWRIGHT (yay!!!), or not even on this list but something we got last week: CHECK PLEASE v2.

*creak* goes the machine, as it slowly spins back up for another Wednesday release. We remind you that we are limited by the City of San Francisco to contactless curbside pick up only, so most periodicals are limited to preorders only. We're ECSTATIC to get you signed up: just call 415-863-9258 or email divisadero@comixexperience.com. I think the new original graphic novel BOG BODIES looks swell, and a nice superhero reprint is Geoff John's STARGIRL. Want a deeper track? Brian enthusiastically recommends I THINK HE'S CRAZY, a collection of B.K. Taylor's NATIONAL LAMPOON comics. Much much more under the cut: What looks good to YOU?

We hope the regular readers are staying healthy!

Welcome back to new comics shipping, just in time for curbside pickup. Because we had to order these comics when we thought we were still forced to be closed, we don't have rack copies of most of these periodicals, but we're happy to reorder for you -- just email divisadero@comixexperience.com or call 415-863-9258 and we'll get whatever comics your want for you!

Most of our received graphic novels ARE in stock, you can order some for Wednesday contactless curbside pickup (WEAR YOUR MASK) by using our webstore at https://comix-experience.myshopify.com/

We do have stock on Kieron Gillen's LUDOCRATS, the best kids book is SUPERMAN SMASHES THE KLAN, and a superb reprint (and value) is that EX MACHINA COMPENDIUM.

Everything is under the cut, so what looks good to YOU?

Not a ton of debuts this week, but we think the week's "sure thing" is the new Jonathan Hickman joint: DECORUM, but we're sure at least some people are excited for franchise expansions: X-book with CABLE, and STAR WARS with BOUNTY HUNTERS. On the book side of the world, it's youth facing: ALL MY FRIENDS ARE GHOSTS, a new DC SUPERHERO GIRLS, and the first volume of ADVENTURE FINDERS. So much more under the cut…..What looks good to YOU?

What an oddly shaped week! So many comics shipping and so few books! I see many new debuts for you to take a look at, probably led by the relaunch of WOLVERINE, or DCEASED: THE UNKILLABLES, but I also like the look of BANG!, MARVEL VOICES, PLUNGE, GODKILLERS and ON THE STUMP.... yow, so many comics! And even more after the jump…. What looks good to YOU??!?

Nice broad week with many favorites! For new series, the obvious standout is GREEN LANTERN SEASON TWO, but I know many folks are also looking forward to HARLEY QUINN & THE BIRDS OF PREY, and there's also lots of love for Boom's ALIENATED. On the book side, everyone in the world should have a copy of WHAT'S MICHAEL in their collection, there's a new middle reader ZATANNA & THE HOUSE OF SECRETS, and I'm certainly curious for the adaptation of Wes Anderson's ISLE OF DOGS. Much more under the jump! What looks good to YOU?

It is one of those weeks with a number of fine releases, but not a ton of NEW series starting up. I think my suggestions this week will begin with the next issue of QUESTION: THE DEATHS OF VIC SAGE, the conclusion of SECOND COMING (Mark Russell is here in person NEXT Wednesday at 5p!), and, sure, why not VENOM: THE END (promises, promises). On the book side of the universe, I quite liked GREEN LANTERN: LEGACY for kids, NO LONGER HUMAN by Junji Ito for adults, and why not OVER MY DEAD BODY OGN? Much more under the jump! What looks good to YOU?
