American Gods #1

Writer: Neil Gaiman

Artist: Scott Hampton, P. Craig Russell

Shadow Moon just got out of jail, only to discover his wife is dead. Defeated, broke, and uncertain as to where to go from here, he meets the mysterious Mr. Wednesday, who employs him to serve as his bodyguard—thrusting Shadow into a deadly world of the supernatural, where ghosts of the past come back from the dead, and a brewing war between old and new gods hits a boiling point.

The Hugo, Bram Stoker, Locus, World Fantasy, and Nebula award–winning novel and upcoming Starz television series by Neil Gaiman is adapted as a comic series for the first time!

Dead Inside #4

Writer: John Arcudi

Artist: Toni Fejzula

It had enough twists and turns to be interesting, but in the end it was a simple case. The Jail Crimes Division of the Mariposa County Sheriff’s Office easily solved the murder of an inmate. Or did they? Detective Caruso isn’t ready to accept that the case is closed, and the more questions she asks, the more suspects she finds.
