For the first time we are offering a Deluxe Hardcover Edition of one of our most popular comic book series, Zombie Zero!
This collected hardcover contains all seven issues of the post apocalyptic series with beautiful full color cover art and gritty black and white interiors. Follow this unique story with a twist on the zombie genre by writer Christopher Reda and artist Leandro Rizzo with letters by Travis Lanham!
Zombie Zero is currently optioned for Film Development over at Patriot Pictures with the producer Michael Mendelsohn.
The Mortuus Virus, a disease that reanimates the dead, put a hold on civilization. Zombified civilians littered the streets and spread the contagion like wildfire, crumbling the populace and nearly bringing society to a state of natural chaos. That was 15 years ago. Now, with Mortuus publicly eliminated and social order reestablished, the disease’s final carrier, Alexander Livingston, remains under the close supervision of microbiologist Dr. Victor Brooks. With his project kept secret as he searches for a cure, Victor tempts fate with the risk of another apocalyptic outbreak, and should the well preserved abomination escape, no one knows how long the undead can survive a fragile world.

The ultimate battle for tomato supremacy is being waged across time! Will time traveler Alex be able to stop Gangreen and GG Organics?
In the year 2045, the human race is on the brink of extinction after decades of fighting Dr. Gangreen’s army of mutant killer tomatoes. Alexander, a brave soldier in what remains of the human resistance, volunteers for a dangerous mission: go back in time to the year 2026 and take out Gangreen before he can unleash his ultimate tomato-based plans for world domination!
Written by Kevin Cuffe and Bob Frantz (METALSHARK BRO, SKEETERS) with art by Bobby Timony (DC’s LEAGUE OF SUPER-PETS, THE NIGHT OWLS), with covers by Tim Seeley (HACK/SLASH, REVIVAL) and Bob Fingerman (MINIMUM WAGE, RECESS PIECES)!

SHITKICKERS #1 and #2 — Rude, Crude, Sci-Fi Action w/ ‘Tude
It’s Green Lantern meets Lethal Weapon with some Starship Troopers for garnish!
he COSMIC PROTECTION BUREAU (CPB) is an intergalactic police force that uses a Silver Age-style comic book called SPACE COPS as propaganda to draft recruits into service, human and alien alike (a la the arcade game in The Last Starfighter).
But like all propaganda, the truth of the CPB is far removed from the romanticized version found in these recruitment comic books—the CPB is dirty, corrupt, and not at all glamorous. It’s a problematic organization that prioritizes protecting its own over their sworn duty to serve and protect.
Our story centers around two of these space cops: DYLAN JAX, a hot-headed, brash go-getter looking for action, and SKIZZ, a veteran alien in a career backslide who’s comfortable toiling away in the Bowels of THE PRECINCT, the homeplanet of the CPB. She’s a self-described SHITKICKER, aka the Being doing the most menial tasks possible.
When the cocky Dylan is assigned to do bullshit busywork with Skizz, he’s forced to confront the reality that his great destiny was just a lie his mommy fed him, and that the organization he’s committed his life to isn’t as benevolent as it claims to be.
Bored out of his gourd and looking for some action, Dylan kidnaps Skizz to go on a mission to crack open one of his new partner’s cold cases that sends them spiraling down a wormhole of intergalactic conspiracies, dirty cops, and big-time daddy issues.
SHITKICKERS is a series that lives somewhere between the humor of the Jump Street films and the high-stakes action of Guardians of the Galaxy—with a little Starship Troopers for garnish, and it sounds like this. Think Lethal Weapon meets Green Lantern.
But underneath the dick jokes and bad attitudes, this is a story about fighting against a system designed to oppress, even if it takes you a while to realize the side you should be fighting for isn’t the side you’re on. It’s about finding your place in the universe with a little help from your friends and the importance of chosen family. It’s about telling your past to screw off so you can carve out your own future.

Black Cobra: Most Wanted
The Black Cobra returns in 2 feature length stories!
Black Cobra is one of the most resilient heroes in the Grok Comics universe. Unlike heroes defined by overwhelming power, Black Cobra’s stories focus on endurance, recovery, mentorship, and personal growth. His experiences with captivity, torture, and trauma have shaped him into a protector who helps younger heroes avoid the mistakes and suffering he endured.
He serves as a bridge between generations of heroes, often acting as a counselor, trainer, and role model rather than simply a frontline combatant.
lack Cobra first appeared during the events of The Remnant #2. During a covert mission, he was captured by the monstrous villain Nephilim VI and held prisoner for weeks. Subjected to prolonged torture and abuse, Cobra was pushed to his physical and emotional limits before ultimately being rescued by The Apostle.
This experience became the defining event of his life. Rather than allowing the trauma to consume him, Black Cobra transformed his suffering into a source of empathy and strength, becoming one of the most compassionate heroes in the Remnant universe.
Hillbilly: War of Witches Hard Cover
Hillbilly: War of Witches collects the initial twelve issue storyline from Eric Powell’s hit Appalachian fantasy series.

WEBTOON’s Slice of Life – Sapphic Anime Character in Japan!
Cheerleader Lucy and her Anime Character girlfriend have to survive long-distance when Yuriko makes her way to JAPAN!
When gritty anime protagonist, Lady Vengeance, is brought to the real world by a super fan, she’ll learn there’s more to life than darkness and revenge…and she’ll find love with the super fan’s twin sister – a closeted cheerleader.

This new 60-page Issue collects Chapters 64-74 of the Webtoon – plus a brand new 4-page Bonus Chapter not available on Webtoon/Tapas (more on that later)!
In this issue the anime character who comes to life takes on a summer program in Japan, and faces the challenges of long distance with her cheerleader girlfriend now turned softball player. Also sparks begin to fly between bully turned best friend, Kris, and anime nerd, Ravyn.

TRANSFORMERS! BARBIE! G.I JOE! AND MORE! Explore the iconic designs, art, and advertising featured on TV’s streaming toy sensation!
You know, you love them … and, above all else, you must collect them all!
It feels like only yesterday when director, producer, and Nacelle Company founder and CEO Brian Volk-Weiss had an idea that would finally bring his lifelong love of toys and collectibles rocketing off the shelf and onto television screens around the world.
What if there was a television series that, at last, could chronicle the untold stories behind some of the biggest and most beloved blockbuster toy lines ever made? The behind-the-scenes origin stories of the action figures, dolls, playsets and race cars that entertained millions … and the trials of the often-unsung creative visionaries that first brought them to life?

That show could only be called THE TOYS THAT MADE US – and, now, after three hit seasons on Netflix (with a fourth and fifth on the way), it’s a worldwide, global phenomenon that has finally immortalized the definitive histories of the toy industry’s biggest legends and earned near-universal acclaim from a whole new generation of collectors and toy aficionados:
Now, after partnering with groundbreaking graphic novel publisher Oni Press on its own best-selling line of NacelleVerse comics, Oni and Nacelle are proud to reveal a brand-new collaboration: THE ART OF THE TOYS THAT MADE US – a dazzling two-volume set of masterfully designed, deeply researched art books capturing the instantly recognizable designs, artwork, advertising, concept art, and more from the brands behind Nacelle’s instantly iconic streaming sensation in deluxe, oversized (10” x 12”) hardcover packages.

Unsounded, Books 3 and 4
Ashley Cope’s legendary dark fantasy webcomic continues its jump to print, with volumes 3 and 4!
Welcome to Ashley Cope’s genre-defining webcomic, Unsounded.
Unsounded is a world of gray and complicated people. No one can be trusted, and baring your heart is inviting a knife.
Cope’s 15 years of legendary comics are being compiled into a complete and ultimate collection by Iron Circus Comics, boasting retouched art, extra pages, and print-exclusive bonus content. With volumes 1 and 2 already in the hands of backers and buyers, we’re continuing the journey with Unsounded volumes 3 and 4.
In Book Three: Thicker Than Water, Sette, daughter of the King of Thieves, and Duane, undead mage and manservant, face a brutal shared enemy that not only strains their loyalties and relationship, but seems to be supernaturally siphoning its strength from the conflict itself! After being taken captive by Stockyard, the very man Sette’s father sent her to find, Sette has to figure out a way to escape, save Duane, and rescue the whole damn town from the madman Delicieu and his terrifying, silver-enraged red eels. But when she finds out what her dad’s mission is really about, will Sette prove to her father that she’s just as despicable as him, and ready to inherit his criminal gang? Or will the sting of betraying Duane be too much for her to bear?
This volume is intense: mind-drinking man-snakes, living hurricanes of water and air elementals, tank-sized snapping turtles, and the ubiquitous red eels, hungry to cause and eat the pain of the living. Our heroes become embroiled in the fight of their lives, confronting the fact that our past unavoidably influences the present. Whether fleeing guilt or barreling headfirst into rage-filled action to ignore the pain: survive long enough, and there are friends to be made in the dark.
In Book Four: What We Do to Children, Lieutenant Elka and Captain Toma of the Crescian Peaceguard discover a conspiracy in their midst: a twisted plot involving the silver, the Peaceguard, and the destruction of the city of Ethelmik. But the Crescian Queen has an ace up her sleeve! A new Senet beast has slithered in, taking advantage of Lady Ilganyag’s silence, and usurping her Black Tongue followers.
The story threads through amazing characters, pulling it tightly together, as all are ensnared in the spinning web of fate. Mathis Quigley, his son Matty, and liberated ex-slave Jivi find temporary refuge with kind-but-stern Iori Ripa and her husband Rahm, and a lead on where they can fix Uaid, their loveable but childlike golemic construct. But after a visit from a mysterious man, Bastion Winalils, Rahm turns on them… And it was that same man who hired the Lord of Thieves, and put Sette and Duane on this dark path together.
…And all in a mad push to get Duane to the theocratic police state of Alderode: the one place he swore to never return to.

The Death of Bobby Hart – SECOND PRINTING!!!
A graphic novella so nice it has to be printed twice!
Help fund the second print run of The Death of Bobby Hart. This is the exact same story as the first print run — a 68-page main story, and more than thirty pages on back matter, including the original short “Hart of the Matter” that inspired the longer story. The main story of The Death of Bobby Hart, written by yours truly, David F. Walker (co-creator of Bitter Root), with art by Dietrich Smith, Craig Johnson II, colors by Chris Sotomayor, and cover by Canaan White, is 100% the same. Only the back matter has been slightly changed (I fixed a few spelling errors, and rearranged some of the pages for a better flow). The book itself is completely done, and now it is just a matter of sending files to the printer.
Inspired by a true story, The Death of Bobby Hart is a neo-noir crime thriller about the murder of pulp writer Bobby Hart, the undisputed king of 1970s “street literature” books such as Pimp Wars and Confessions of a Junkie. With more than a dozen books to his name, Bobby Hart is working on the most recent installment in his popular GHETTO AVENGER series when he and his pregnant wife are brutally gunned down in their home. But who killed Bobby and why? And what do his books–gritty, hard-boiled crime thrillers set in the world of gangsters, dope dealers, pimps, and ghetto vigilantes–have to do with his murder?
