Happy New Comic Books Day Ninja Nation! Here is what we couldn’t wait to get our little ninja hands on this week!
- Fear Agent #29
From Dark Horse Comics, the universe was corrupted far too many years ago for Heath Huston to have any hope of reversing the disease, or so he thinks as he sinks back into the bottle. As the Tetaldians continue to hunt him, Heath uncovers the history of the robot hordes and their secret coconspirators. The odds are stacked higher than ever; his body is aged and broken. Finally presented with one final opportunity for redemption, can the last Fear Agent move past his role in it all and give the bastards a little back? Sure he can.
* Includes a special Tales of the Fear Agent by legendary creator Hilary Barta!
* Thirty-two FULL pages of COMIC BOOK-ACTION!

From Marvel and guest-starring the Avengers Academy!

Also, can Cage keep objective when he realizes one of the prisoners is the man who once controlled his wife: the sinister Purple Man? Find out in the latest chapter of the book that ToyFare magazine says “can’t not be awesome”!

From Image Comics, Steve Nyman dons the costume of Coffin Fly to battle dinosaurs and Zombie Nam Vets on the Graveyard Planet.

- Hard Rain graphic novel
From Mat Johnson, writer of the acclaimed INCOGNEGRO, comes a graphic novel thriller set in the days after Hurricane Katrina. Two small-time ex-cons with big dreams get the idea that this would be the perfect time to rob a bank. Catch is, the bank is in New Orleans, and they’re on parole in Houston. Now, as every sane person tries to get out of The Big Easy, Emmit and Dabny will do whatever it takes to get in.
As they journey through a tide of human suffering, Dabny wants to help, and Emmit sees only the money. But a rogue commander of the ruthless security force “Dark Rain” has his sights set on taking down the same bank. If Emmit and Dabny don’t outrace him, their last hope for a second chance could be washed away in the floodwaters – along with their lives. 160 pages, black and white hardcover on sale for $24.99.
