48 PAGES/FC/NOVEMBER 1/$4.99

Anything you've ever wanted to know about the characters in INVINCIBLE, but were afraid to ask. Power levels, hometowns, relatives, origins, shoe sizes... it's all here. Written in the tradition of that other famous handbook and featuring drawings from some of the top talents in comics and animation. A MUST HAVE FOR ANY INVINCIBLE FAN!

As I have said before I am a sucker for handbooks and I love Invincible so..... Besides it will be handy for converting characters to Truth and Justice.

LOW ORBIT, VOL. 1
by NICK BRADSHAW, SEAN GALLOWAY, ALINA GALLOWAY, RYAN ODAGAWA, JONBOY MEYERS, ALLISON STROM, KEVIN DALTON, MARK ANDREW SMITH & MICHAEL WOODS
cover SEAN GALLOWAY & ALINA GALLOWAY

64 PAGES/FC/NOVEMBER 15/$6.99

LOW ORBIT is a sci-fi/fantasy anthology featuring seven unique stories from creators by NICK BRADSHAW, SEAN GALLOWAY, ALINA GALLOWAY, RYAN ODAGAWA, JONBOY MEYERS, ALLISON STROM, KEVIN DALTON, MARK ANDREW SMITH and MICHAEL WOODS.

From mythical monsters and enchanted woods to cyberpunk street gangs and hi-tech samurai, this book has a little something for just about everybody.

I will always try the first couple issues of a SF comic because there arent enough of them.

NOBLE CAUSES, VOL. 6: HIDDEN AGENDAS TP
story JAY FAERBER
art FRAN BUENO, FREDDIE E. WILLIAMS & GABE BRIDWELL
cover KHARY RANDOLPH

176 PAGES/FC/NOVEMBER 8/$15.99

Meet the Blackthornes. They're the criminal element's answer to the Noble family -- rich, powerful, and deeply dysfunctional. Hidden agendas, secret romances, and dark pasts converge in this sixth collection of the long-running series.

As a special bonus, this collection also contains a five-page story originally printed in the IMAGE HOLIDAY SPECIAL 2005. Collects NOBLE CAUSES #13-18

Another in a long line of comics I read only in TPB. Noble Causes has always read better for me this way.

NEGATIVE BURN #7

The Eagle, Eisner, and Harvey Award nominated anthology returns this month with yet another issue packed with today's top creators and tomorrow's brightest talents.
RETAILER WARNING: MAY NOT BE SUITABLE FOR ALL AGES

This issue I get some Mike Ploog and RG Taylor again (who with Dave Darrigo did the excellent Wordsmith series many years ago. Its worth tracking down). YAY!!

An anthology of original stories averaging around 8-9 pages in length? I hope it works, but so few writers know how to tell stories at that length these days....
