SLG Comics in stores 8/17!
I think there are more new SLG comics this week than there have ever been any week I've been paying attention. It's a wonder no one went crazy. Here they are, available at fine comic stores now:
GloomCookie #24 by Serena Valentino & Vincent Batignole
32-page comic book, $2.95
In the wake of The Carnival Wars, Sebastian suffers guilt for killing Marguerite, and making everyone in his life disappear. Moon Raven tells Vermilion she has The Power of the Nosferatu and it was she who made all the GloomCookies vanish, catching Vermilion’s extreme interest. Meanwhile Sebastian struggles with the responsibility of his actions and the enormous powers he has at his command.
French artist, Vincent Batignole makes his comic debut, bringing a style and grace to the series that blends beautifully with Valentino’s storytelling.
Next Exit #5 by Christy Lijewski
24-page comic book, $2.95
What relation does Cara have to Markesh? Who was the strange man Mary-Alice was talking about? And just what exactly is Mary-Alice anyway? Questions abound as Retrab and Markesh spend their final night in the city, each hoping to find their own answers before heading back on their journey. What they don’t expect however, is the heavy price those answers will come at.
Pirate Club #7 by Derek Hunter
24-page comic book, $2.95
Just when John thinks things couldn't get any stranger, mutiny is declared amongst the ranks of the Pirate Club. It couldn't have happened at a worse time, as they have come under heavy attack by Ninjas, Nomads, and all the other clubs they've ever faced. Plus, JJ's origin nearly revealed.
Rex Libris #1 by James Turner

The astonishing story of the incomparable Rex Libris, Head Librarian at Middleton Public Library, and his unending struggle against the forces of ignorance and darkness.

He must confront incredible foes, such as powerful alien warlords who refuse to pay their late fees. Wearing his super thick bottle glasses, and armed with an arsenal of high technology weapons, he strikes fear into recalcitrant borrowers, and can take on virtually any foe from zombies to renegade public domain literary characters with aplomb.
