Wednesday is here again, which means a new week for new comics (HEATHEN, CANTO & GUTT GHOST). If you are like me, you may still have a stack of comics that haven’t been read from last week, but how can anyone fault us for reading. Here is a list of books I will be picking up at my local comic shop.
Like many readers I try to budget my purchases, which can become difficult when there are so many quality books being published each week. So here are 5 titles to consider picking up this week.
HEATHEN #8 – $3.99
Vault Comics – Natasha Alterici, Rachel Deering
After a stormy night at sea ends in tragedy, Aydis is forced off the ship and must now face the open ocean alone. Elsewhere, Brynhild and Sigurd finally reach the Valkyrie castle, only to find it deserted of all but one belligerent goddess.
SHE SAID DESTROY #3 – $3.99
Vault Comics – Joe Corallo, Liana Kangas, Rebecca Nalty, Melanie Ujimori
The invasion has begun! With Brigid’s forces poised to capture Fey, tensions rise between Iris and Raul. The witches can’t agree on how to handle the incoming Light Knights, and once again responsibility falls on Winona’s shoulders. Will the Morrigan remain a player in the shadows, or can Winona’s devotion summon the full power of destruction?

GUTT GHOST #1 – $3.99
Scout Comics – Enzo Garza
Who is Gutt Ghost and what’s he all about? The reality is he’s just like you and me. Navigating the same ups and downs that life has to offer. He works a job he doesn’t like, has a car that breaks down, pays bills and deals with the same headaches that come from being a ghost with guts. Things like an ex-girlfriend and her obnoxious runt of a creature new boyfriend, flakey friends and the troubles with resurrecting dead ones, confrontations with a stranger and accidentally eating them alive. It’s normal stuff we all deal with and he’s no stranger to it. Plus there’s sure to be some inside out people, a cult and someone’s car gets broken into. All completely normal and relatable stuff!
CANTO #2 – $3.99
IDW Publishing – David Booher, Drew Zucker, Vittorio Astone, Deron Bennett
Lions and tigers and… Malorex, oh my! Canto slips out of captivity only to find a herd of vicious Malorex ready to eat him. Can an unlikely friend help Canto survive long enough to see what lies beyond Arcana’s borders?
