SINK YOUR TEETH IN #1-2: Mature Sapphic Noir Chicago Vampire
An undead PI hunts a missing vamp, facing ancient Mob Families, corrupt cops, & a past she buried to survive. Zoe Tunnell/Lauren Knight
The DEATHline imprint of Lifeline Comics brings you a brand new 22-page comic, issue #2 in the series, from writer of comics Zoe Tunnell, and artist Lauren Knight!

And Corsica Smith barely sees any of it. Having long since fallen from her once-powerful place in the city’s elite, she scrapes by as a bottom-rate private eye.
Florence Carmichael thought she was done with Corsica. Decades of silence and a messy break-up seemed to be the final straw between her and the woman she turned into a vampire over a half century ago.
But now that she’s facing an impossible situation and in more danger than she’s ever been…Corsica is the only woman she can trust. Or at least manipulate.
Can Florence and Corsica figure their sh*t out or will the supernatural rising tensions in the city be their downfall?

EXTINCTION WAR
/// FATAL THE END HUNTS US NOW /// Humanity is no longer the dominant species. The war for survival has begun
In our world, the characters have their backs against the wall. Pushed past the limits of human endurance, the colony of ATLAS PRIME launches a high?risk infiltration into the Baobab Throne Stronghold — the fortified heart of the Mutant Ape Nation. Their mission is desperate and direct: secure and steal the last viable foodstuffs from superior forces determined to stop them. Failure means starvation. Success means survival. And every step forward is a step away from the jaws of extinction.
Even though this is a work of fiction, our world is in peril. All of us are already in the fight to save the Earth — now, not someday. Like it or not, each of you must battle against extinction and become the leaders of today.The fight is all around you.And I know you’re with me.
/// — — — ///
EXTINCTION WAR — PRE?IGNITION BRIEFING
Extinction War is a story about the moment humanity realizes it isn’t the dominant force on Earth anymore. It’s the collision point between what we were, what we became, and what’s coming for us next. The world is breaking in slow motion — ecosystems collapsing, nations fracturing, old powers losing their grip — and something ancient is waking up inside the cracks.
The people caught in this moment aren’t superheroes. They’re human beings pushed past the edge in different ways. Some have taken their pain and turned it into personal dominion, developing themselves to a point where they feel larger than life. Some have lost their way and are trying to find a foothold. And some are so hurt they want everyone around them to feel the same. The war doesn’t create these paths — it exposes them.
This isn’t a clean war. It’s a survival event. A pressure test. A reckoning. The kind of conflict where every choice costs something, and every victory feels borrowed. Our characters aren’t superheroes; they’re people caught in the gears of a world shifting under their feet, trying to hold onto whatever still feels human.
The book is built to feel big — cinematic scale, grounded stakes, and a world that keeps expanding the deeper you go. Extinction War is the first chapter in a larger myth, one that asks what rises after the old world falls, and who we become when extinction stops being theoretical.
So brace yourself. Lock the harness. Wake the core. Bring the charge to saturation. Align the signal and let the engines bite. When Extinction War lights up, you rise

Feral #2: The Colour of Blood
The second instalment of the Feral comic series, set in a world where werewolves and their rare pelts fuel the fur trade.
Set in the mid-18th century, following the golden age of piracy, Feral explores a version of the North American fur trade where werewolves and other creatures out of myth are not only real, but hunted, catalogued, traded, and exploited.
In Feral #1: The Beast Within, Captain William Grey and the ragtag crew of the Sea Wolf stumbled onto something that could change the balance of power in the New World: Sir Clancy Foxbottom’s Bestiary, a long-lost field guide to the creatures, legends, and supernatural forces that live beyond the edge of empire.
Now, in Feral #2: The Colour of Blood, Grey and his crew are reeling after a brutal Sea Bishop attack, battered, bloodied, and carrying a book the Crown Trading Co. (CTC) will stop at nothing to reclaim.
But this is no ordinary book. And the Crown Trading Co. doesn’t simply want it for knowledge. They want to use it to name, shackle, and control what should never be tamed.
Captain William Grey thought the Bestiary might be his way out.
A fortune. A bargaining chip. A path to safety for a crew that has spent too long running from enemies, debts, and the consequences of Grey’s decisions.
Instead, the book has made them fugitives.
After surviving the Sea Bishop, Grey and the crew of the Sea Wolf arrive in the New World and discover a fur trade already built on more than beaver, fox, and wolf. Creatures of myth are being trapped, caged, butchered, and sold. Pelts, claws, bile, bones and blood have all become currency.
For some, that means opportunity.
For Grey, it means a terrible question: Is survival worth the cost of his soul?

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.

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? The genesis of the now-iconic brands that first turned afternoon playtime into a lifelong obsession?
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.
