    HEY KIDS COMICS #4
    Writer: Howard Chaykin
    Artist: Howard Chaykin
    Publisher: Image Comics
    Cover Price: $3.99
    Release Date: November 14, 2018
    More trials and triumphs-but mostly trials-drawn from the way things really happened as a business built on cheap paper and cheaper ideas became the foundation of the entertainment world’s modern-day ATM.

    Rating: ★★★★☆

    MATTHEW
    THE GREEN LANTERN #1
    Writer: Grant Morrison
    Artist: Liam Sharp
    Publisher: DC Comics
    Cover Price: $4.99
    Release Date: November 7, 2018

    Superstar writer Grant Morrison (Batman, All-Star Superman) returns to DC alongside red-hot artist Liam Sharp (The Brave and the Bold, Wonder Woman) to launch a new, ongoing series: THE GREEN LANTERN! In this debut issue, when Earth’s space cop, Hal Jordan, encounters an alien hiding in plain sight, it sets off a chain of events that rocks the Green Lantern Corps—and quite possibly the Multiverse at large—to its very core. There’s an inter-galactic conspiracy afoot, as well as a traitor in the GL Corps’ ranks, so strap in for more mind-bending adventures in this masterpiece in the making.

    Introducing Remi, a young and energetic explorer and relic hunter, whose boundless curiosity leads to a startling discovery beyond anything she could have imagined!

    Some time has passed since the tragedy of issue one, as Remi attempts to make sense of the clues her father left behind. However, even in a new village surrounded by new acquaintances, Remi discovers that the ruling Akolouth Clerics will stop at nothing to shroud all kingdoms in their brand of religious devotion. They also will stop at nothing to hunt her down and kill her!

    Cover by Geoff Shaw. In celebration of the legendary imprint founded by Marvel’s CCO Joe Quesada, a new crop of talent stands poised to tell a groundbreaking story across the Marvel Universe! In the cemetery, the blind man does not know who he is, or why he has come to this particular grave at this moment. He doesn’t know the burly police officer with the wild story who has approached him. Or the strangely intense man who sits in the rear seat of the patrol car, his eyes flashing green. But all of that is about to change. Because Matt Murdock is beginning to remember… In a colorless world without heroes, the spark of light…must come from the dark…

      Happy note: Detective Pickachu looks awesome.

      Sad note: Stan lee… I think we knew it was coming but oddly still thought he’d always be around. I’m forever grateful for the work and worlds he helped build. They gave and continue to give me joy. That’s just something you cannot measure. Thanks Mr. Stan Lee, Thank you.
