HORRORWOOD #1(M) (Ape Ent.)

SUPER TEEN*TOPIA #1 (Alias)
by Kirk Kushin & Gonzalo Martinez In the tradition of Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Freaks & Geeks, and Sixteen Candles comes a new ongoing series from Alias - Super Teen*Topia! While 'A-list' teen super heroes travel to other dimensions and fight cosmic overlords, the STT gang gets stuck at the mall waiting for a bus! In this issue Paige, Cameron, and Kevin meet for the first time as they respond to a crisis with their untested powers. If you're ready for a comic series that focuses more on character than it does costume - Super Teen*Topia is the brand new 'super soap' in town! Product Code: FEB062801. For more, go to the
Super Teen*Topia forum.

WEREWOLVES CALL OF THE WILD #1(M) (Moonstone)
by Mike Oliveri & Joe Bucco If you're going to kill a man, you best make sure his brother won't come looking for him. Especially if that man's brother is a werewolf. Cole Tyler fears the worst when he learns his missing brother is the subject of a murder investigation by a hostile sheriff. Sheriff Hess, meanwhile, wants to know why Marcus Rice wants Cole to join his brother in a shallow grave. Product Code: FEB063172. Check out more info at
