KAIJU SCORE #2 Writer: James Patrick Artist: Rem Broo MORE STORY! MORE ART! MORE KAIJU! Every detail is planned. The players are set.

BAD RECEPTION – THE COMPLETE SERIES Writer & Artist: Juan Doe It’s the celebrity wedding of the century, set in an undisclosed, remote location, with no access to wifi, cell phone reception or the outside world. But the dream wedding becomes a nightmare when, one by one, the guests are brutally slaughtered by a mysterious killer who brands his victims with a hashtag. BAD RECEPTION is a searing horror story that doubles as a topical, satirical critique on society’s obsession with technology, social media and the cult of celebrity. Written and drawn by AfterShock’s very own Juan Doe (DARK ARK, AMERICAN MONSTER, WORLD READER), this collection contains the entire series, issues #1-5. “...fantastic character designs, a really good setting, some gorgeous colorwork, and a real sense of self and personality...It’s a very easy recommendation in collected form as once the mystery and the murders start going on, you’re going to want a lot more of it very quickly.” – Chris Beveridge, The Fandom Post AT SHOPS: DECEMBER 30th

WAR ON TERROR: GODKILLERS – THE COMPLETE SERIES Writer: Mark Sable Artist: Maan House Abdul Alhazred is an Arab-American folklore professor turned soldier whose fear of death stems from uncertainty about the existence of an afterlife. Then he joins THE GODKILLERS, a special forces unit tasked with fighting insurgents who use mythological creatures as weapons of mass destruction. Now that he knows the supernatural exists, he’ll have to decide which is worse – death or the nightmarish monsters he thought were mere legends. From writer Mark Sable (MISKATONIC, Grounded, Fearless, Supergirl) and artist Maan House, WAR ON TERROR: GODKILLERS is a monster story for the modern age. This volume contains the entire series, issues #1-5. “Cthulu in fatigues...a precision strike of fantasy horror and military realism.” – Kobi Bordoley, Multiversity Comics AT SHOPS: DECEMBER 30th
