BRRRR. It is definitely time to put on two or five layers of clothes, get under a blanket, and read your favorite comic book. Looking for something new to love? Our recommendations are below, and you can find them on our shelves tomorrow. Plus, while you’re here, take advantage of our beyond-super holiday special: Spend $20, get a $5 certificate to use in-store!

DC Nuclear Winter Special #1

The holidays are tough enough as it is, but when you’re living in a post-apocalyptic wasteland (or, you know, 2018 – same diff), the world can seem bleaker than ever. So, do yourself a favor this holiday season. Break out your best eggnog (note from our co-owner Martin: Eggnog is good, and he doesn’t want to hear otherwise), and enjoy 10 all-new stories featuring the World’s Greatest Heroes. This includes looks at the futures of Batman, Superman, and the Flash, as well as many more denizens of the DC Universe.

Warning #1

An enormous machine slowly materializes in a major West Coast city. Who sent it – and why – is a mystery, understood only by the malevolent beings gliding silently toward Earth through the inky vastness of space. Yikes? Yikes. In response, a multinational combat brigade called Gladiator Two-Six is deployed. Outfitted with next-generation military science and weapons, this brigade is tasked with stopping any extraterrestrial threat that emerges.
