TOP 5 COMICS TO BUY – 11/21/18: HOT LUNCH SPECIAL, SMOOTH CRIMINALS & CARNAGE BORN

Wednesday is here again, which means a new week for new comics (HOT LUNCH SPECIAL, SMOOTH CRIMINALS & CARNAGE BORN). 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.

SMOOTH CRIMINALS #1 – $3.99

BOOM! Studios – Kurt Lustgarten, Kirsten ‘Kiwi’ Smith, Leisha Riddel, Brittany Peer, Ed Dukeshire, Audrey Mok

There are certain things Brenda expects to find while hacking: money, secrets, occasional pictures of cats. She is NOT expecting to find a cryogenically frozen master thief from the 60s. Mia is everything Brenda is not-cool, confident, beautiful. And utterly unprepared for the digital age. Despite their differences, the two will need to team up to find out what happened to Mia-and how to pull off the heist of the century. Kiwi Smith and Kurt Lustgarten (Misfit City) team with breakout artist Leisha-Marie Riddel (Goldie Vance) in a story about felonies and friendship.

HOT LUNCH SPECIAL #4 – $3.99

Aftershock Comics – Eliot Rahal, Jorge Fornes, Taylor Esposito

A midwestern noir series set in the harsh landscape of the northern Minnesota Iron Range-HOT LUNCH SPECIAL is all about family, food and the fight for survival. Only one question is worth asking…is blood thicker than sandwiches?
Dorothy Khoury has accidentally created two more dead bodies.
The number one problem with most corpses is…they’re super hard to get rid of.
