New comic day is only a few days away and with a number of titles releasing it can be difficult to decide which comics you should pickup. So we are here to help. This week we preview Come Find Me #1, We Called Them Giants HC, and more.
While we are not the official voice of your decision, we want to help guide you in the right direction for comics releasing October 30, 2024.
Come Find Me: An Autumnal Offering #1
Writer: Various
Artist: Various
Publisher: DSTLRY
New 56-page one-shot from DSTLRY. In Come Find Me: An Autumnal Offering, auteur Becky Cloonan (Somna, Gotham Academy) curates a coven of the most sinister, trailblazing storytellers in sequential art for a haunting collection destined to become a Halloween tradition.
Within these pages, Cloonan unearths a corpse with two coins laid over its decaying eyes. When an opportunistic thief robs the cadaver of its last possessions, a sinister curse erupts, dooming all it touches. HamletMachine (Lucifer’s Garden) presents a chilling tale of a musical demon who makes Faustian pacts with unsuspecting victims, creating minor-key symphonies of human pain. E.M. Carroll (A Guest in the House), Vanesa R. Del Rey (Scarlet Witch, Redlands), Celine Loup (The Man Who Came Down the Stairs), and Molly Mendoza (Skip) join this insidious bonfire to conjure a modern descent into folk-horror dread.
Come Find Me Also offers a first look into the world of Cloonan’s next DSTLRY series, making this volume a perfect collector’s item, hot off the creator’s sold-out modern erotic horror masterpiece with Tula Lotay, Somna.
An eerie confirmation of the new face of comics horror, Come Find Me is guaranteed to provide restless nights and racing pulses in a season of bonfires and falling leaves.
Every issue from DSTLRY is presented in our perfect bound Prestige format, featuring wraparound covers with spot gloss on robust cover stock, complemented by 56 pages of exquisite interior stock. It’s the DSTLRY difference.

Writer: Jay Stephens
Artist: Jay Stephens
Publisher: Oni Press
This Halloween, return to the terrifyingly tranquil streets that Dwellings calls home-as seen through the eyes of visitor Wolfgang LeGant! But Wolfgang is no ordinary tourist: He’s convinced he’s actually a seasoned vampire hunter, and this delusion has drawn him to Elwich to drive a stake through the once-unassuming town’s thriving “Saguinarian” goth subculture. But when Wolfgang meets Emmaline Momenta, a young woman similarly possessed by the idea that she’s a real vampire, irrational faith may be the only thing capable of stopping a mass murder in the making…
We Called Them Giants HC

We Called Them Giants is a story of communication across a chasm at the end of the world. Lori wakes to find the streets empty. Everyone has gone. Or at least, nearly everyone.

A vampire-flipped Dracula in which mortality means life… and life means death. Vampires Jonathan Harker, Lucy Westenra, and Mina Murray live in underground London, trying to keep the undead city safe from the rumored mortals above who seek to give them life, only to kill them. But when the authorities refuse to believe mortals, let alone the mysterious Count Dracula, are anything more than myth, they are on their own to keep their city eternally dead.

1956. Kootenai National Forest, Montana. When smokejumper Nathan Garrett perishes in a raging wildfire, his surviving family’s hopes and happiness turn to ashes.
One year following her husband Nathan’s death, wife, and mother of two, Jolene Garrett, takes her crumbling family to the Morning Star lookout seeking solace through closure–to scatter her husband’s remains.
