(W/A/CA) Luana Vecchio
Mini-Series Premiere. A twisted new entry in the Lovesick
universe from Russ Manning Award winner Luana Vecchio. Twelve-year-old
Madeleine dreads the idea of growing up. She fears becoming like the

mother. But most of all, she doesn't want to become a target for the
monsters that are out there, hiding in plain sight. However, a
stomach-churning discovery forces Madeleine to confront the harsh
reality that growing up isn't a choice-it's survival. Part coming-of-age
and part horror-thriller, Doll Parts is a must-read for both seasoned fans and newcomers to the twisted universe of Lovesick, where youth and innocence are nothing more than meat for the cruel.

name a successor from his three extraordinary children: Athena,
Benjamin, and Spookshow. Each brilliant, cunning... and unlucky enough
to be the child of the world's greatest supervillain. See, Napoleon
believed he was smart enough to have it all: Raise a family and

IN BLOOM #1 (OF 5)
BOOM! STUDIOS
(W) Michael W. Conrad (A/CA) John Pearson
43% of the
cells within a healthy human body belong to something other than the
human host. Microbiomes, invasive bacteria, fungal and viral agents, and
something else, something... more.
When the BLOOM happened, humanity was changed forever, transformed by symbiotic fungal megasystems that infected their bodies.
Some affected people grew new body parts, some found their personalities changed in radical new ways, while others reported contact with some... other intelligence not their own.
In this revolutionary new world, Agent Spears finds herself investigating a series of mysterious murders, a chain of violence that leads her to a terrifying question on which the fate of every living being rests.

Writer Scott
Hoffman (Nostalgia, Wag) of Scissor Sisters fame teams up with artist
Alberto Ponticelli (Frankenstein: Agent of S.H.A.D.E., Goodnight
Paradise, Orc Island) for a sci-fi/horror mystery that pushes the limits

New York City, over two decades into the future, has been devastated by crime, ongoing storms, radiation from a terrorist incident in Times Square and the genetic mutations caused by a life-saving "cure." After a series of murders rip through the city's brothels, an escort named Vin Young, who cosplays as Snow White- and is one of the generation of deformed victims - decides to help
find the killer, or killers, responsible, reluctantly joining forces with Jarrod Hannover, the lone cop assigned to the case. The two are led to a biotech megacorp launching a cellular metal called Warm Fusion - a pioneering technology meant to replace prosthetics limbs - and soon confront the sociopathic scientist Nicholas Fleischer, his monstrous alter-ego Mr. Barnaby, and the hideous monster that he's been secretly creating.
WARM FUSION is a dark, sci-fi thriller, mixing the body horror of David Cronenberg with the bleak urban future of Blade Runner.
