    BEASTS OF BURDEN: OCCUPIED TERRITORY #1
    Writer: Evan Dorkin and Sarah Dyer
    Artist: Benjamin Dewey
    Publisher: Dark Horse Comics
    Cover Price: $3.99
    SOLICITATION: “For pet lovers and enthusiasts of supernatural mysteries, the series is an absolute must… ” – USA Today The eight-time Eisner Award-winning comic book series blending fantasy and humor returns in a historical adventure blending Japanese and Western occult! An elder member of the occult-battling pack of Wise Dogs recalls a harrowing mission—in U.S-occupied Japan after World War II, a mysterious curse creates an army of crawling, disembodied heads which threatens to overwhelm the region. Emrys and a team of canine companions attempt to solve the mystery, bringing them into conflict with shape-changing tanuki, evil oni, and a horde of vengeful demons.

    INGRID: As if the central concept of intelligent, magic using dogs who solve supernatural mysteries wasn’t awesome enough, this story arc takes us back to post-WW2 Japan and whole new kinds of terror. I am over the moon about this book!

    THE SILVER COIN #1
    Writer: Chip Zdarsky
    Artist: Michael Walsh
    Publisher: Image Comics
    Cover Price: $3.99

Each issue will tell a tale of terror in a shared supernatural world. The story starts in 1978 with a failing rock band whose fortune suddenly changes when they find the mysterious Silver Coin. Little do they know that fame comes with a cost, and a curse is always hungry.

    STEPHEN: A lot of buzz surrounding this book. I don’t know if we have enough horror comics, or too many, but I’m going to see what The Silver Coin offers up.
