New Series:

ADVENTURE TIME ICE KING #1 (OF 6)
Publisher: BOOM! STUDIOS
(W) Emily Partridge, Pranas T. Naujokaitis (A) Natalie Andrewson (CA) Shelli Paroline, Braden Lamb
What's to Love: The Ice King is probably one of the most tragic and hilarious characters in the Land of Ooo, but we've never had the chance to really focus on him before. Now we're taking a look at just what makes the Ice King tick with Emily Partridge (Adventure Time) and artist Natalie Andrewson (Lumberjanes).

What It Is: The Ice King has always been there, kidnapping princesses, messing with Finn and Jake, and generally being a weirdo. But there's way more to him than that! He's a deep, thoughtful person with a heart full of love! Or...maybe he just really wants to marry a princess. Either way, this is one journey the citizens of Ooo aren't likely to forget.

AMERICAN MONSTER #1 (JUAN DOE REGULAR COVER)
Publisher: AFTERSHOCK COMICS
(W) Brian Azzarello (A/CA) Juan Doe
In a small Midwestern town, a large man with a horribly scarred face gets off a bus, and takes a room. He spooks the locals--nobody knows him--or do they? It's impossible to say be-cause he seemingly has no face. The man's intentions remain unknown, until he takes on a corrupt sheriff and the rural crew of racist arms dealers. The town's impression of the man changes, and he's seen as a hero...until his real intentions bubble to the surface. The man isn't there to end the gang, but to take it over. And he's just getting started.


CAPTAIN MARVEL #1 (KRIS ANKA REGULAR COVER)
Publisher: MARVEL COMICS
(W) Tara Butters, Michele Fazekas (A/CA) Kris Anka
Face front, true believers! The Captain has made her return and oh, how mighty it is. It's a bold new frontier for Carol Danvers as she soars to new heights in her greatest mission yet--leader of the all-new Alpha Flight space program. Yup, Alpha Flight. As earth's first line of defense, Carol and her team aim to protect the planet from extraterrestrial threats. But can Carol be a soldier and a diplomat? Especially when an unknown enemy emerges that Carol can't quite punch. The superstar team behind Marvel's Agent Carter television series, Tara Butters and Michele Fazekas, make their comics debut alongside the awesomely-talented Kris Anka.


DEVOLUTION #1 (OF 5) (COVER A JAE LEE)
Publisher: D. E.
(W) Rick Remender (A) Jonathan Wayshak (CA) Jae Lee
Every living creature on Earth has been devolved - the evolutionary clock turned back, reverting all life to odd mutations and prehistoric incarnations. The cities of man are little more than bloody territories ruthlessly dominated by tribal Neanderthals ruling from the backs of mammoths, packs of saber-toothed tigers, and giant man-eating insects. Writer Rick Remender (Black Science, Fear Agent), artist Jon Wayshak (The Authority), and colorist Jordan Boyd (Ant-Man, Planet Hulk) take you on a journey with the last band of "Still Sapien" humans in the hope of locating an antidote and re-evolving the human race.


PENCIL HEAD #1 (OF 5)
Publisher: IMAGE COMICS
(W/A/CA) Ted McKeever
PENCIL HEAD is Ted McKeever's semi-autobiographical take on the whacked-out world of the comic book industry. Journey along as we witness protagonist Poodwaddle's trials and tribulations of working, and sustaining, his place in the absurd world of comics, where what happens behind the scenes is far more twisted, and bizarrely hilarious, than anything on the printed page.


POISON IVY CYCLE OF LIFE AND DEATH #1 (OF 6) (CLAY MANN REGULAR COVER)
Publisher: DC COMICS
(W) Amy Chu (A/CA) Clay Mann
Life. Death. Poison Ivy has power over both. But can she keep her friends and hold down a regular job at the same time? As Dr. Pamela Isley, she joins the prestigious plant sciences department at Gotham Botanical Gardens, but things quickly get complicated when a fellow scientist is murdered and it looks like the work of Ivy. Don't miss the start of this new 6-issue miniseries!


SILVER SURFER #1 (MIKE ALLRED REGULAR COVER)
Publisher: MARVEL COMICS
(W) Dan Slott (A/CA) Mike Allred
"Fantastic Planet"
The Surfer has taken Dawn Greenwood to the end of the universe, and now he's going to show her the most fantastic planet of them all: Earth! It's your homeworld like you've never seen it before: with monsters, magic and...a secret that will change everything! The perfect jumping-on point for the book everyone's talking about!
