Cybernetic ex-soldier Nate Slaughterhouse – AKA Mandroid – was last seen rampaging through Mega-City One on a vigilante killing spree. Hellbent on avenging the murder of his son and finding his missing wife, Slaughterhouse took the law into his own hands. But Mega-City One only knows one law, and his name is Dredd. The infamous Judge stopped Mandroid in his tracks and sent him to the Iso-cubes. Now, it’s two years later and Nate Slaughterhouse wants revenge…

DSTLRY has announced a new horror series by Ram V and Joëlle Jones. Through Red Windows looks to be a chilling tale!
From Ram V (The One Hand, The Many Deaths of Laila Starr) and Joëlle Jones (Catwoman, Lady Killer) comes a twisted tale about a massive skyscraper filled with sordid secrets, and the up-and-coming employee who discovers that success might just be the death of him.
Laal’s ambition gets the better of him and the higher he climbs in the company (and the building!) the deeper and darker becomes the danger to his life….and maybe his soul.
When ailing plutocrat, Harlan Roderick, invites his young protégé Athul Laal to live at Roderick Place in downtown Manhattan, Athul believes this could be his first step into the inner circle of the world’s elite.
It soon turns into a living nightmare. Athul discovers that Harlan and his illness are inextricably connected to the 73-story building. Behind each door, lie secrets and monsters from both Harlan and Athul’s own lives.
Through Red Windows is a pulse-pounding thriller loosely inspired by Edgar Allan Poe, with some very modern twists. You can preorder Through Red Windows #1 from Ram V & Joëlle Jones at your local comic book store or buy digitally at dstlry.co this October.
Maverick has announced that a new original graphic novel will be released soon with Tectiv. Maverick has a fantastic line of graphic novels, and I look forward to seeing this one out there.
Mad Cave’s YA Imprint MAVERICK is pleased to announce TECTIV out December 10, 2024. With elements of classic detective noir set against the enigmatic backdrop of post-apocalyptic Los Angeles, this is sure to be one of the most innovative and alluring new YA OGNs of 2024.
When her best friend vanishes, Bingo Finder — the only literate person in a post-apocalyptic L.A. — turns to her beloved, ancient books for inspiration, becoming the first detective in centuries. But to solve this mystery, Bingo must fight for her own life and uncover a conspiracy within this fragile civilization.
Bingo and every other teen in the sprawling farming village of Ellay knows the tales of the old days — of how their great-great-great-grandparents rebuilt what was left of society after some apocalypse or whatever. But that’s ancient history. Boring.
Nah, for Bingo’s generation, today is about staying busy — distracted, even — while tilling the reclaimed City of Industry fields or unloading barges at the seedy port of Bel Air. Or in Bingo’s case, scavenging ruins for artifacts to upcycle and trade at the bartering bazaars — including Bingo’s favorite leftovers, these old things called “books.” Ever heard of ‘em?
Her favorites are the TECTIV books, the ones about men who walked rain-slicked streets at night in hats and trench coats. They searched for answers in a city called L.A., just like Bingo. It was their job. And after her best friend, Fenn, goes missing, Bingo decides that’s what she’s gonna have to be if she wants to get answers — a new kind of TECTIV for a new world. Because everyone may believe Fenn's disappearance was the first crime in a long time. But Bingo’s about to learn that it wasn’t. And it sure won’t be the last…
Author Richard Ashley Hamilton said, “TECTIV is all about finding things — finding secrets at the heart of a mystery, finding justice for someone lost in an unjust land, finding your true self in the pages of an old P.I. potboiler. So it's only fitting that this story has found its perfect home with Maverick and Mad Cave! My deepest thanks go to Mark Irwin, Mike Marts, and Christina Harrington for reteaming me with lettersmith extraordinaire Dave Sharpe and my artistic brother, Marco Matrone. I can't wait for readers to find our wild, wonderfully weird characters and their savagely beautiful noir world of tomorrow!”
TECTIV (9781545812440; 180pp; Trade Paperback; $14.99); is available for preorder now, and on-sale wherever books are sold on December 10, 2024.

Digital Lizards of Doom is a landmark publication for Papercutz. Papercutz is known internationally for producing great graphic novels, so we're more than thrilled to introduce a project that is part of such an impressive independently created mixed-media universe. Digital Lizards of Doom is the first in a series that will let readers grow alongside the story, while expanding their love of the DLOD universe through the incredible combination of music, literature, adventure, and pop culture.
Gabe has paired his incredible first book with original DLOD music, which will be available on the DLOD website– and both are sprinkled with hidden easter eggs referencing the classic pop culture moments that influenced him. Will you be able to spot all of them?
Since the release of DIGITAL LIZARDS OF DOOM LEVEL I: DIZZY DOOM, Papercutz and Gabriel Valentin have been amazed by the response from young readers and educators alike. The series has seen widespread adoption in the San Diego Unified School District, and is set to be embraced by other school districts alike. Said Tobie Pace, the San Diego Unified School District
Senior Director Extended Learning Opportunities: "The DLOD book has ignited a passion for literacy in some of our most disengaged students. Gabe's creative style of writing in a text based format along with the engaging plot eliminates barriers of accessibility to engage young readers to see themselves as readers. The implementation of this graphic novel into our afterschool programs in San Diego Unified School district has sparked a love for reading in our students. In addition, Gabe has incorporated various components of Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) through the companion curriculum, videos, and songs. I strongly recommend this book and curriculum to students in 3rd-7th grade."
DIGITAL LIZARDS OF DOOM: LEVEL 2: COMMANDER E.K.O [9781545811320; $12.99; Ages 7-12] is out on June 25, 2024. It is available wherever books are sold, including Amazon, Bookshop, and Barnes & Noble.
