IT’S NEW COMIC BOOK DAY! #NCBD
The best day of the week just got a lot better with a new round of awesome comics arriving in stores this week. Staff members at Major Spoilers are here to help you with your comic book selection this week, with their roundup of comics they recommend.
GIGA #4
Writer: Alex Paknadel
Artist: John Lê
Publisher: Vault Comics
Cover Price: $3.99
SOLICITATION: Finally reunited with Evan, Aiko reveals a secret that will shake the city to its foundations. Meanwhile, the Order’s persecution of the Dusters passes a bloody point of no return. Allegiances switch and battle lines are drawn as the terrible truth of the Giga’s origins is finally revealed.
INGRID: Giga is tense and terrific. What started out as a mystery has turned into an exploration of a religion and the truth – and the conflicts that this can lead to. The Order persecutes the Dusters; the Dusters fight back in desperation; everything leads to more oppression. It’s a fascinating story drawing on a lot of parallels from our own world but presenting them in a unique way.
GOOD LUCK #1 (OF 5)
Writer: Matthew Erman
Aritst: Stefano Simeone
Publisher: BOOM! Studios
Cover Price $3.99
SOLICITATION: What if Luck was quantifiable, and something everyone was born with?
Everyone, except the Unfortunates – teenagers born with absolutely zero luck. Now with the world mysteriously plunged into chaos and reality itself threatened, they will be our only hope to save the world.
Our last hope is those with no chance of success… the only thing anyone can wish them is Good Luck.
A bold new original series for fans of Seven Secrets and Runaways from Matthew Erman (Long Lost, Power Rangers: Sins of the Future) and Stefano Simeone (Mega Man: Fully Charged) about defying fate against impossible odds.
CHRISTOPHER: The art of this book looks amazing. With such an engaging premise, this could be an amazing series.
SHADECRAFT #4
Writer: Joe Henderson

Publisher: Image Comics
Cover Price: $3.99
SOLICITATION: Zadie discovers the truth about Shadecraft and what happened to her brother Ricky a year ago. Can Zadie pull off a desperate gambit to get her brother back? And does he even WANT to come back??
INGRID: Shadecraft is a story about love and fear and loss, centering on a girl who is afraid of shadows, but who has just discovered that she has some mysterious power that lets her control them. Are her fears only in her own mind, or is she manifesting them? Horror and adventure combine, and it is a delight to read.
