Puritanical vengeance against the unrighteous is very real—and we are ALL unrighteous!

NEW for Wednesday, January 4, 2023! A Scarlet Witch haiku: Wanda Maximoff Wielder of Chaos Magic Is the Scarlet Witch Can you judge the quality of a year by its first week of releases? If you can, we’re all in good hands for 2023. Matt Kindt has a great-looking new spy series from Dark Horse featuring a spy who doesn’t know he’s a spy! It’s SPY SUPERB! Marvel gives us a new SCARLET WITCH series with Sara Pichelli on art! And a Peter David-written JOE FIXIT mini-series! DC Comics is business-as-usual with new issues of BATMAN, DARK KNIGHTS OF STEEL, POISON IVY and more. Image has SPAWN, the very-overlooked KAYA (it’s really good, in an AMULET way), and the almost-over STILLWATER. BOOM! Studios debuts the new Rob Guillory satirical sci-fi blockbuster series MOSELY! All of those are just the beginning of a whole new year of COMICS!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!! #newreleases #newthisweek #newcomics #newgraphicnovels #shoplocal #keepreadingcomics #challengerscomics #comics #comicbooks #graphicnovels #new #dontmissout #happynewyear #2023 #thankyouforagreatyear #thecomicsoftomorrowstartnow #scarletwitch #kaya #mattkindt #spysuperb #joefixit #mosley (at CHALLENGERS Comics + Conversation) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnAC5ebLhwV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A TMNT/MMPR haiku: A TMNT/MMPR haiku: Teens with attitude Meet heroes in a half shell For the second time Traditionally the week between Christmas Day and New Year’s Day is a small one. In fact, some years the publishers would decide to skip it altogether. That, my friends, is definitely NOT the case this year… Here we are, worried about a possible blizzard interfering with all Holiday plans (as of this writing) and keeping us indoors this weekend, and both Marvel Comics and DC Comics are providing their own blizzard, in the form of the biggest single-issue week of the year!! And it’s not even that many New #1’s. NO new ongoings at all! But a few one-shots and mini-series. And just a whole lot of other new comic book issues… Thank you for shopping with us throughout the year and here’s to an amazing 2023!! #newreleases #newthisweek #newcomics #newgraphicnovels #shoplocal #keepreadingcomics #challengerscomics #comics #comicbooks #graphicnovels #new #dontmissout #happynewyear #2023 #thankyouforagreatyear #mmpr #tmnt #mmprtmnt #tmntmmpr #bookofslaughter #timeless2022 #starwarshighrepublic #starwarshighrepublictheblade #stanlee #stanlee100 #deadboydetectives #sandmanuniverse (at CHALLENGERS Comics + Conversation) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmtBrFKOri2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
