On the Episode 74 of the Capes and Tights Podcast, Paul Eaton joined Justin Soderberg to discuss their respective top-10 2022 comic books of the year. Not everyone has the chance to listen our episodes and with this we have decided to now list the comics here for your reading pleasure.
Only a few stipulations are required to be considered on of the 2022 comic books of the year.
The comic book has to have had two issues released between January 1 and December 31, 2022. The series does not need to have first released or completely released within 2022, but have three issues released. Example: Something Is Killing The Children released in 2019, but can be considered as one of the 2022 comic books of the year due to having had at least two issues released this year.
We recommend listening to Episode 74: 2022 Comics Books of the Year as our hosts explain why each book made the list.

Clementine is back on the road, looking to put her traumatic past behind her and forge new path all her own.

As friendship, rivalry, and romance begin to blossom amongst the group, the harsh winter soon reveals that the biggest threat to their survival…might be each other.

She and her guardian have no language, no memory, nothing-except each other.
