Let’s see what’s new for February 28th. This is what we’re getting and what you should check out today! 


Rogues’ Essentials

Abbott #2

  • A 1970s crime story with a kickass female at its center AND supernatural ties? What’s not to love! – Anelise
  • Ahmed’s first issue was full of grit and overall awesomeness with a dash of the supernatural. My only complaint: it’s a 5-part limited series **sad face emoji*** – Cory
  • Give me a crime story that is based in a part of actual history and you have me hooked. Add in some twists and maybe some unknown supernatural powers, and I will be first in line to read it.- Greg
  • Reading other people’s descriptions of this comic makes me want to jump in and read it as well. I had no idea it was crime and horror. – Jim
  • When I started reading this I thought it was just going to be a journalist investigating crimes in the 70’s with a focus on racism. And I was into it. Nope. We got a supernatural connection here, and I’m riding this story to its end! – Josh

Beef #1

  • I am looking forward to a new food-centered murder mystery series. – Anelise
  • The premise of the story sounds pretty crazy so I cannot wait to see if the story delivers – Greg

Crosswind Volume 1 TP

  • Gail Simone’s adult version of Freaky Friday. A lot less Lindsay Lohan, and a lot more adult. – Cory
  • I somehow missed Crosswind coming out but volume 1 seems a good place to get on board with Gail Simone and Cat Staggs’ body swap crime thriller. – Mark Jones

Jim Henson’s Labyrinth #1

  • Admittedly, I wasn’t a huge Labyrinth fan growing up; however, I will give anything a shot that is written by Si Spurrier. – Cory
  • You remind me of the babe! What babe? The babe with the power! What power? Ahem, sorry, I’m really looking forward to reading this one for obvious (David Bowie) reasons. – Frank

Long Lost #4

  • Long Lost continues to deliver with a story that slowly reveals itself, each part more mysterious. – Greg
  • My favorite book on the stand.- Mark B.

Royal City #10

  • Lemire + all the feelings. Enough said. – Anelise
  • This second story arc has been all sorts of wonderful. Lemire continues to deliver on a monthly basis with this series about life in a small town.- Greg

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #79

  • 79 issues in, and this title still keeps my inner child alive and well! – Cory
  • Can a book really retain this much momentum and entertainment for nearly 80 issues? Yep, TMNT sure can; month after month it’s a blast to read. – Frank

Anelise’s Picks

Motor Crush #10
This sci-fi series is always a delight, both in terms of story and art.

Void Trip #4
This depressing beautiful sci-fi story was made for me.

 

 

 

 

 


Cory’s Picks

Alisik Fall #1
For fans of Neil Gaiman and Tim Burton’s The Corpse Bride and Nightmare Before Christmas. A girl wakes up in a cemetery with no recollection of how she died. Only other ghosts in the afterlife can help her unravel her mystery.

Mera Queen Of Atlantis #1
Abnett has been crafting a Game of Thrones-esque story with Aquaman. This limited series focuses on Mera as a Queen in Exile. Abnett has delivered maybe the most badass version of this character!

 

 


Greg’s Picks

Thanos #16
Cates has done amazing things with this series so far. This week promises to give us the origins of Thanos’ favorite spirit of vengeance Ghost Rider.

 

 

 

 

 

 


Josh‘s Picks

X-O Manowar #12
Aric’s been left for dead and now he’s coming for the universe’s deadliest bounty hunters who deposed him as Emperor. And FIGHT!

 

 

 

 

 

 


Mark B.’s Picks

Cult Classic Return To Whisper #1
This book has gotten so much hype, and for $1.99, there’s no excuse not to follow up on it.

Hack Slash Resurrection #5
I’m just here for the queer pot-smoking gore.

X-Men Blue #22
Venom’s in space for the first time since reuniting with Brock; the X-Men have symbiotes. I live for this stuff.

 

 


Graphic Novels

Motor Girl Omnibus SC
A short series by Terry Moore standards, Motor Girl is an absolute delight. Funny, dramatic and heartbreaking all in equal parts, all collected under one cover. – Frank

New Mutants Epic Collection Curse Of The Valkyries TP
It’s not quite the Asgardian Wars, but any time our merry mutants tangle with Asgard it’s a great time all around. Classic stuff! – Frank

Pizzeria Kamikaze GN
Depressing yet affecting stories are my jam, and I look forward to seeing what this is about! – Anelise

Unstoppable Wasp Volume 2 Agents Of G.I.R.L. TP
Undeniably charming! Whitley gave us the “happy-go-lucky in spite of growing up in the Red Room” daughter of Hank Pym we never knew we wanted, but really needed. – Cory

Victor Lavalle’s Destroyer TP
The premise has me sold. When the last descendant of the Frankenstein family loses her son to a police shooting, she turns to science for her own justice…putting her on a crash course with her family’s original monster and his quest to eliminate humanity. – Cory


That’s all for this week! Thanks for checking out this week’s Rogues Portal Pull List! We’ll be back next week with a brand new list for you to peruse. Same Bat-Time. Same Bat-Channel!

Basically a hobbit, Josh is always enjoying food and drink, and going on unexpected adventures. Beware if you see him without a cup of coffee: caffeination deprivation makes this boy go loco.
