										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just what I have been searching for, an Easter comic. Joking aside, I was excited to see <a href="https://capesandtights.com/263-benjamin-percy-dungeons-of-doom-x-force/"><strong>Benjamin Percy</strong></a> penning a new science-fiction <a href="https://capesandtights.com/horror/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">horror</a> based around a time of year we don&#8217;t see many stories with <a href="https://link.amazon/B0hv3mEjP" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Egg Hunt</em></a>. However, it&#8217;s not just the unique concept and holiday theme, it&#8217;s the tremendous illustrations and visuals from artist <strong>Raúl Fernández</strong> that made the premiere issue of <em>Egg Hunt</em> so amazing.</p>
<p>Easter Sunday in the Midwest. Sunrise service. The Lord has risen, and the hungry will come. A visitor crash-lands in the woods surrounding the picket-fence suburbia where little Piper lives with her mom Tina and her nasty stepdad Don. The world is frightening and alien for both Piper and her new…friend… but on this day of cosmic forgiveness, when her family falls apart, the unlikely pair may find their own salvations.</p>
<p>Although I am a big fan of <a href="https://capesandtights.com/punisher-1-review-percy-soares-pull-no-punches/">Percy&#8217;s superhero stories</a>, but also <a href="https://capesandtights.com/the-comet-cycle-series-review/">his science fiction tales</a> as well, I didn&#8217;t really know what to fully expect from a sci-fi horror taking place around Easter. Percy does a fantastic job laying a foundation for an ambitious story in this first issue with a lot happening in a short number of pages, but also not a lot happening at the same time.</p>
<p><em>Egg Hunt</em> has the vibe of <a href="https://link.amazon/B02qe3zoP" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial</em></a> as far as a young child and the interaction with some sort of creature not of this world. There is a great deal of mystery woven into this story so far. Where the sci-fi aspects are present, the horror side of things hasn&#8217;t fully reared its ugly head. That is outside of how horrible some men can be, especially Tina&#8217;s stepdad Don. He isn&#8217;t present for many panels in this first issue, but damn do I sure already hate him a good amount. Percy knows his way around science-fiction stories and this one is definitely just getting started.</p>
<p>I know Percy has big plans for <em>Egg Hunt</em>, both because the writer doesn&#8217;t do half-ass when it comes to good stories, but also because this first issue only sets the plot in motion and leaves us eagerly awaiting more. From what I can tell, I cannot wait. But it&#8217;s not just the story that makes the first issue of <em>Egg Hunt</em> something to marvel, but the artwork by Fernández nearly steals the show. The visuals and illustrations have a strong cinematic feeling and the angles from which the story is told gave into the mystery even more. Topped off with great colors by <strong>Giada Marchisio</strong> and lettering from Micah Myers, <em>Egg Hunt #1</em> is a visual feast.</p>
<p><a href="https://link.amazon/B0hv3mEjP" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Egg Hunt</em></a> is a beautifully illustrated, wonderfully weird sci-fi mystery horror that is off to a great start. Truthfully, you had me at Benjamin Percy and science-fiction, so unsurprisingly this new series has the making for an excellent run. The first issue of <em>Egg Hunt</em> has just enough unsettling moments to hint at the horrors still to come.</p>
<p><a href="https://link.amazon/B0hv3mEjP" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Egg Hunt #1</em></a> hits local comic shops on November 18, 2026 from Mad Cave Studios.</p>

<h2>Minor Threats: The Cleaner #1</h2>
<p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-42182" src="https://i0.wp.com/capesandtights.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/TheCleaner.png?resize=1240%2C670" alt="Minor Threats: The Cleaner #1" width="1240" height="670" /></p>
<p><strong>Writer:</strong> Gerry Duggan<br />
<strong>Artist:</strong> Mark Torres<br />
<strong>Publisher:</strong> Dark Horse</p>
<p>Twilight City is a hard place to live — and an easier place to die. But some bodies never make the headlines. When the capes make a mess too big to bury, they call one number: The Cleaner.</p>
<p>By day, David O’Halloran is a struggling small business owner. By night, he’s the spandex world&#8217;s last call for cleanup — disposing of the un-disposable with precision, secrecy, and a price. But when his path crosses with the deadly and dazzling Diamond Dahlia, everything changes. She has a secret past with the legendary vigilante The Insomniac, and it’s about to erupt onto the blood-slicked streets.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s superhero noir from <strong>Gerry Duggan</strong> (<em>X-Men</em>, <em>Deadpool</em>, <em>Falling in Love On The Path To Hell</em>) and superstar artist <strong>Mark Torres</strong> (<em>Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles</em>).</p>

<p><strong>Writer:</strong> Zack Kaplan<br />
<strong>Artist:</strong> Stephen Thomson<br />
<strong>Publisher:</strong> Dark Horse</p>
<p>When an ambitious and troubled video game programmer dares to audition for a secret society in the gaming/tech industry, composed of cutthroat, genius masterminds that promise to help their members achieve their wildest dreams, he and his rebellious co-worker find themselves in a gauntlet of real-life puzzles that quickly turn deadly.

<p>Parliament is in chaos. Buckingham Palace is in lockdown. Conspiracy theories flood airwaves and social media. Some say it was an attack on the prince and princess, others believe it was the result of an ancient family curse.</p>

]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the years, Jessica Drew and Spider-Woman have never really been a character I have been itching to read. But something about her having the evil symbiote of Carnage inside her and <a href="https://capesandtights.com/292-dan-watters-tmnt-shredder-the-twilight-zone/"><strong>Dan Watters</strong></a> penning the script had me eagerly awaiting another solo series of the spider-character. With an outstanding foundation set by Watters and stellar art from <strong>Andrea Broccardo</strong>, <a href="https://link.amazon/B01374sTI" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Spider-Woman #1</em></a> is the type of Jessica Drew story I never knew I needed.</p>
<p>Old foes back from the dead! Mysteries around every corner! And a bloodthirsty Carnage just barely kept contained! It&#8217;s a recipe for Spider-Woman&#8217;s darkest adventure yet.</p>
<p>Although Jessica Drew has not been my favorite comic character in recent years, Carnage is closer to that. For those who don&#8217;t know, this story spins out of Amazing Spider-Man: Spider-Versity where the Carnage symbiote bonds with Spider-Woman preventing it from killing. So with the charismatic symbiote a part of this story made it a bit easier to pick it up and dive in. Watters lays a great foundation for a story I am eager to continue reading. Drew has this violence boiling up inside her while trying to investigate attacks on crime families in her city. The blend of investigation, a touch of horror, and a suspenseful vibe is what made flipping through this story sit well with me.</p>
<p>Watters brings a sense of humanity to Drew&#8217;s character as she fights back the symbiote, which is obviously not going as well as she had hoped, and continues to attempt to fight for what&#8217;s right. We get a much more violent and volatile Spider-Woman than we have seen in the Marvel Universe, something I am here for all day long.</p>
<p>What can be difficult for some newer readers, or at least those who don&#8217;t read every Marvel story, is trying to jump into a story without a ton of background. <em>Spider-Woman</em> is crafted in a way that makes it super accessible with only needing a few tidbits, such as knowing who Jessica Drew and Carnage is, and by the end of this first issue another connection to Carnage. This allows anyone who wants to get into a new arc without the fuss of reading a bunch before the ease of jumping into a stellar new series.</p>
<p>Broccardo balances the action and superhero elements with the horrors that come along with a Carnage tale. Drew&#8217;s interactions with the symbiote in the mirror are beautiful and terrifying at the same time. There is a grittiness to the visuals that this horror reader loved, but also fits squarely in the greater Marvel Universe. This goes the same for <strong>Mattia Iacono</strong>&#8216;s colors, as they are just what this story needed.</p>
<p><a href="https://link.amazon/B01374sTI" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Spider-Woman</em></a> is a dark and suspenseful tale that I never thought I would be this excited to read. Writer Dan Watters and artist Andrea Broccardo deliver a story where the superhero action and horrors of Carnage blend seamlessly. <em>Spider-Woman</em> is a brutally entertaining story that made this reader a much bigger fan of Jessica Drew.</p>
<p><a href="https://link.amazon/B01374sTI" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Spider-Woman #1</em></a> hit local comic shops on November 4, 2026 from Marvel Comics.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are stories that are so good that when a followup or sequel is announced you have to dig deep to find how they will top the original tale, <a href="https://link.amazon/B0eKNQe8r" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>I Saw Spawn: A Twisted Christmas Tale</em></a> happens to be that type of story. <a href="https://capesandtights.com/i-saw-santa-spawn-christmas-story-review/"><em>I Saw Santa</em></a> from 2025 was such a great <a href="https://capesandtights.com/christmas/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Christmas</a> horror story and I didn&#8217;t know how <strong>Chris Killian</strong> &amp; <strong>Andrew Sanders</strong> would be able to top it, but by golly they did.</p>
<p>The North Pole is shaken by a gruesome massacre that bears the signature of serial killer, Charlie Kohl. As Santa Claus investigates, dark forces begin to corrupt Santa&#8217;s workshop from within, and it’s clear Spawn is the only one who might be able to put a stop to this terribly twisted Christmas.</p>
<p>One of my favorite stories of the past few years is Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees and when Patrick Horvath released a sequel, I didn&#8217;t really know how to feel about as the original was so damn good. However, after diving into it, I was kicking myself for even letting a sense of doubt creep into my mind. Guess what? I have a similar feeling now after reading <em>I Saw Spawn</em>. Maybe I should start having more faith in talent creators and special stories.</p>
<p>How will <em>I Saw Spawn</em> even come close to last year&#8217;s <em>I Saw Santa</em>, well&#8230; bring the story from the city to the North Pole where Santa is getting ready for Christmas while still tormented from the horrible events that took place with Charlie Kohl. Not surprisingly, those traumatic events still haunt Claus as he prepares for another trip around the world. They were terrifying, bloody, and changed him. But the show must go on, that is until things get bloody on Santa&#8217;s lawn. Not only do Killian and Sanders taking this story a bit further north, but they also bring in more Christmas lore and horror to darken the story even further.</p>
<p><a href="https://capesandtights.com/i-saw-santa-spawn-christmas-story-review/"><em>I Saw Santa</em></a> was set in the greater <a href="https://capesandtights.com/spawn/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Spawn Universe</a> when it dropped in 2025 and those who understand knew this with our friends Sam &amp; Twitch investigating, but only saw a glimpse of the title character as almost a reminder that we are present in that world. Killian and Sanders bring it even closer to the universe by having this tale feature a bit more of Spawn as Santa is dealing with some serious shit at the North Pole and only can think of one person to help.</p>
<p>Having Spawn be more present in this sequel story puts us more squarely in the Spawn Universe, but it&#8217;s also the artwork by <strong>Todor Hristov</strong> that makes us feel right at home. Each Spawn comic has this vibe and artistic style that was set by creator <strong>Todd McFarlane</strong> many years ago and has carried us throughout. Hristov uses this aesthetic while also putting his own flair on things to make it his own.</p>
<p>Not familiar with Spawn and the great universe? Not to worry, the way Killian, Sanders, and Hristov have crafted these stories is in a way that allows Spawn fans to get more of the universe, but also only skims the surface for those new to the characters as well as the long history of the comics. These are Santa horror stories that feature some beloved characters from the Spawn world.</p>
<p><a href="https://link.amazon/B0eKNQe8r" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>I Saw Spawn</em></a> is a brutal and horrific holiday tale where Santa is at his whits end, enlisting the Hellspawn&#8217;s help. Writers Chris Killian and Andrew Sanders expand their twisted holiday world without losing what made the original special, while Todor Hristov&#8217;s artwork makes Spawn feel perfectly at home. <em>I Saw Spawn: A Twisted Christmas Tale</em> is a terrifying Christmas tale where delivering presents to the boys and girls of the world is the least of Santa&#8217;s worries.</p>
<p><a href="https://link.amazon/B0eKNQe8r" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>I Saw Spawn: A Twisted Christmas Tale #1</em></a> hit local comic shops on November 11, 2026 from Image Comics.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As new comic day quickly approaches it can be sometimes difficult to decide which of the new comics hitting the shelves at your local comic shop to grab. Do not worry, we are here to help. This week we preview four titles that standout from the crowd including <a href="https://capesandtights.com/archie-in-hell-1-oni-press-review/"><em>Archie in Hell #1</em></a>, <em>Spider-Woman #1</em>, and more!</p>
<p>While we are not the official voice of your decision, we want to help guide you in the right direction for <a href="http://capesandtights.com/comics/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">comics</a> releasing November 4, 2026.</p>
<h2>Archie in Hell #1</h2>
<p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-40807" src="https://i0.wp.com/capesandtights.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/ArchieInHell.png?resize=1240%2C670" alt="Archie in Hell #1" width="1240" height="670" /></p>
<p><strong>Writer:</strong> Patrick Horvath<br />
<strong>Artist:</strong> Tyler Crook<br />
<strong>Publisher:</strong> Oni Press</p>
<p>TO BE SAVED&#8230; HE MUST BE DAMNED! In the bloodstained tradition of AFTERLIFE WITH ARCHIE, something wicked this way comes to Riverdale in an infernal new ongoing series from multiple Eisner Award winner <a href="https://capesandtights.com/290-patrick-horvath-beneath-the-trees/"><strong>Patrick Horvath</strong></a> (<a href="https://capesandtights.com/beneath-the-trees-where-nobody-sees-tp/"><em>Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees</em></a>) and Russ Manning Award winner <a href="https://capesandtights.com/258-tyler-crook-comic-book-creator/"><strong>Tyler Crook</strong></a> (<a href="https://capesandtights.com/out-of-alcatraz-collision-history-fiction/"><em>Out of Alcatraz</em></a>, <a href="https://link.amazon/B0hNvmHDM" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Harrow County</em></a>)!</p>
<p>They say that every small town has a secret. Well, in the case of Riverdale, it’s one heck of a humdinger: An ancient order of cultists has infiltrated its townspeople, bent on using human sacrifice to usher a demon lord into our mortal plane. And they’ve finally identified the final target they need to bring a century’s worth of planning to fruition: hometown football champion and all-around good guy Archie Andrews. But this secret cabal never dreamed that actual witches walk Riverdale’s streets&#8230; and when cult and coven clash in the final stages of Archie’s secret-ritual sacrifice, the consequences will be cosmic&#8230; and young Archie Andrews will find himself damned to something far worse than Hell’s inner circle.</p>
<p>Unstuck from time and space. Bound to a terrible curse. Late for school. Things are about to go from bad to downright diabolical as Horvath and Crook unleash the most malevolently merciless Archie Comics tale ever told&#8230; and, truly, you’ll never, ever expect what happens next.</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="https://capesandtights.com/archie-in-hell-1-oni-press-review/"><em>Archie in Hell</em></a> is a wildly fun, wickedly gruesome trip to Riverdale that proves once again that Archie and horror are a match made in hell. Writer Patrick Horvath and artist Tyler Crook bring their horror expertise to the pages of an Archie story, delivering new story that is somehow lighthearted and terrifying at the same time. <em>Archie in Hell</em> is the odd one out in the first three new Oni Press Archie titles, but also the most fun. <a href="https://capesandtights.com/archie-in-hell-1-oni-press-review/">– CLICK HERE to read the entire review</a></p></blockquote>

<p>Acclaimed storytellers <strong>Michael Chaves</strong> (<a href="https://link.amazon/B0h6aFg0R" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>The Conjuring</em></a> franchise) and <strong>Matthew Roberts</strong> (<em>Universal Monsters: Creature from The Black Lagoon Lives!</em>) present a haunting new horror series where family is family, whether they’re alive or undead&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="https://capesandtights.com/corpse-knight-1-review-beauty-in-the-brutality/"><em>Corpse Knight #1</em></a> surprised me in the best possible way. It&#8217;s a grim, emotional, and visually striking premiere that blends a ton of heart and horror, doing so with confidence. Michael Chaves proves he understands what it takes to craft a great comic, even if this is his first go-around. He lets the story breathe while Matthew Roberts and Rico Renzi&#8217;s artwork heightens each page with haunting and unforgettable imagery. <em>Corpse Knight</em> balances brutal horror with real emotional weight, making it a must-read story. <a href="https://capesandtights.com/corpse-knight-1-review-beauty-in-the-brutality/">– CLICK HERE to read the entire review of the first issue</a></p></blockquote>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In theory crossing two extremely popular universes over in a comic sounds like an amazing idea and should be extremely popular, but it&#8217;s not always executed well and sometimes can feel forced. However, this is not the case for <a href="https://link.amazon/B06rrqrUi" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Swamp Thing is Killing the Children</em></a>, a crossover story between <a href="https://capesandtights.com/review-something-is-killing-the-children-vol-1/"><em>Something is Killing the Children</em></a>, it&#8217;s Slaughterverse, and the <a href="https://capesandtights.com/dc/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">DC Comics Universe</a> by writer and artist duo <strong>James Tynion IV</strong> and <strong>Werther Dell&#8217;Edera</strong>. Instead we get a fantastic and fresh take on what a crossover story can be, in a horrifying and heartfelt one-shot.</p>
<p>Two siblings who are life-long comics fans find their way to horror comics, in spite of the fears they inspire. As the terrifying visions from the pages of the comics start to come to life, Erica Slaughter will have to hunt down one of horror&#8217;s most recognizable figures — Swamp Thing himself!</p>
<p>I had no real idea of what to expect from <a href="https://link.amazon/B06rrqrUi" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Swamp Thing is Killing the Children</em></a> outside of the trust I had in the Slaughterverse, but also the creators behind it and their ability to craft ousting stories not just for BOOM! Studios but also some of the most cherished DC characters as well. Tynion and Dell&#8217;Edera have a long history of creating some outstanding tales, so I at least had to put my trust in their minds. I am glad I did.</p>
<p>This story could&#8217;ve been handled in multiple ways, but the decisions made by the creative team surprised the hell out of me in such a good way. Taking the crossover story to a new level and crafting a tale that makes sense and does both universes justice. The formula of one character entering another universe by some sort of event that plopped Erica Slaughter into the DC Universe or Swamp Thing into the Slaughterverse would&#8217;ve almost felt forced, but by using fresh storytelling made this come hit even harder than I expected.</p>
<p><em>Swamp Thing is Killing the Children</em> is just as much as DC Comic as it is a BOOM! Studios story, but really felt at home in the Slaughterverse. You get the children frightened by monsters and Erica coming in to save the day, something that if it didn&#8217;t happen would&#8217;ve let me down. The tension is built from the very first page and felt throughout the story. You get the action-packed battle you&#8217;ve come to except in a Slaughterverse story, along with a bit of heartfelt moments between the brothers and the life they have been dealt. A wonderful blend of emotions.</p>
<p>The way this creative team set this comic made it feel like it was in the right place. It&#8217;s can be hard to explain, but it felt like it was supposed to be where it is. It didn&#8217;t feel forced, it didn&#8217;t feel like a fish out of water, it felt purposeful and part of the overall stories being told in both the Slaughterverse and at home in a Swamp Thing story. Like I said before, some feel like they just don&#8217;t work, and <em>Swamp Thing is Killing the Children</em> is far from that.</p>
<p><a href="https://link.amazon/B06rrqrUi" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Swamp Thing is Killing the Children</em></a> is a beautiful blend of superhero and horror that works perfectly. Writer James Tynion IV and artist Werther Dell&#8217;Edera craft an unexpected crossover that proves the best mashups don&#8217;t just bring two worlds together, they make you believe they were always meant to collide. <em>Swamp Thing is Killing the Children</em> is a story that feels at home in the Slaughterverse but also like a love letter to the great DC Comics universe.</p>
<p><a href="https://link.amazon/B06rrqrUi" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Swamp Thing is Killing the Children #1</em></a> hits local comic shops on <del>December 2, 2026</del> February 24, 2027 from BOOM! Studios.</p>

<h2 id="1970s">Marvel Age of Comics: The Mighty Avengers vs. the 1970s</h2>
<p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-33762" src="https://i0.wp.com/capesandtights.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/557484188_1225100519633489_6899703335593339019_n.jpg?resize=195%2C300" alt="Marvel Age of Comics: The Mighty Avengers vs. the 1970s" width="195" height="300" /><strong>Paul Cornell</strong> kicks things off with a look back to The Mighty Avengers historic decade of the 1970s.</p>
<p>The team that defined a generation-and reshaped a universe. The Avengers was the comic book of the 1970s. From Civil Rights to the Women&#8217;s Liberation Movement, battles for the soul of America became battles between super heroes.</p>
<p>Writer <strong>Stan Lee</strong> and artist <strong>Jack Kirby</strong> co-created the all-star group of six super heroes in September 1963. From there, just three main writers chronicled Earth&#8217;s Mightiest Heroes in that most turbulent of decades: <strong>Roy Thomas</strong>, <strong>Steve Englehart</strong>, and <strong>Jim Shooter</strong>, each with differing approaches. The Avengers quickly became the pivot around which the <a href="http://capesandtights.com/marvel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marvel Universe</a> turned. To look back through its issues is to get a crash course in &#8217;70s pop culture.</p>
<p>Illustrated with full-color art from this legendary run, Cornell&#8217;s entry in the <a href="https://amzn.to/47zdryD" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics</em></a> series explores how the Mighty Avengers became icons during a time of immense change and upheaval.</p>
<p>It was wonderful to look through the lens of Cornell&#8217;s deep dive into the 1970s era Avengers and the connections played to the turbulent times of the decade. While it was a great way to deeper my love for the Avengers and Marvel Comics. There was A LOT packed into the 120 page book. <a href="https://amzn.to/47C2uwb" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>The Mighty Avengers vs. the 1970s</em></a> was fact upon fact, upon fact over 10 years and multiple writer/artist combinations. This length of period in a short time felt a bit overwhelming. While I still enjoyed the content within, this entry was my least favorite of the first three books.</p>
<p><em>Marvel Age of Comics: The Mighty Avengers vs. the 1970s</em> <a href="https://amzn.to/47C2uwb" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hit bookstores everywhere</a> on November 11, 2025 from Bloomsbury Academic. The audiobook, narrated by <strong>Cary Hite</strong>, is <a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=25361&amp;awinaffid=1475442&amp;ued=https%3A%2F%2Flibro.fm%2Faudiobooks%2F9781350582033" target="_blank" rel="noopener">available via Libro.fm</a>!</p>

<h2 id="ddborn">Marvel Age of Comics: Daredevil: Born Again</h2>
<p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-33765" src="https://i0.wp.com/capesandtights.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/9798765131688.jpg?resize=193%2C300" alt="Marvel Age of Comics: Daredevil: Born Again" width="193" height="300" />Next up, <strong>Chris Ryall</strong> focuses in on one of the best Daredevil runs in history with a look at <a href="https://amzn.to/47q9r4Y" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Daredevil: Born Again</em></a>.</p>
<p>What happens when a hero loses everything? In <strong>Frank Miller</strong> and <strong>David Mazzucchelli</strong>&#8216;s <em>Daredevil: Born Again</em>, the comic&#8217;s titular hero has his life destroyed after his most menacing enemy learns his real identity. His attempts to rebuild his life and sanity result in one of the most gripping and impactful super hero storylines of all time.</p>
<p>Released in 1986, the storyline is an extraordinary exploration of what happens when a hero&#8217;s identity is revealed, and his personal life completely annihilated. We see Daredevil reduced to the lowest depths in the character&#8217;s history, but we also follow his painstaking path toward redemption.</p>
<p>This entry in <em>Marvel Age of Comics explores Daredevil: Born Again</em>&#8216;s gorgeous and unique artwork, the lasting impact of its story and art, and how it forever changed the ways super hero characters and their secret identities have functioned.</p>
<p>Unlike the first entry, Ryall&#8217;s book revolving around <em>Daredevil: Born Again</em> was something special. I believe the shorter period of time and slightly longer book allowed for the information to be consumed a bit easier. The focus on one main character and one series allowed for a bit more breathing room. Like the other entries, this one also featured great imagery, illustrations, and samples of the story arc to give more context.</p>
<p>Whether you are big fan of Daredevil, the Born Again arc, or just want to learn more about the characters and those who created the storylines, Ryall&#8217;s <a href="https://amzn.to/3JKtAcJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">entry into the Marvel Age of Comics</a> is a great place to be.</p>
<p><em>Marvel Age of Comics: Daredevil: Born Again</em> <a href="https://amzn.to/3JKtAcJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hit bookstores everywhere</a> on November 11, 2025 from Bloomsbury Academic. The audiobook, narrated by <strong>Seth Podowitz</strong>, is <a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=25361&amp;awinaffid=1475442&amp;ued=https%3A%2F%2Flibro.fm%2Faudiobooks%2F9781350582026" target="_blank" rel="noopener">available via Libro.fm</a>!</p>

<h2 id="strange">Marvel Age of Comics: Doctor Strange: A Decade of Dark Magic</h2>
<p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-33767" src="https://i0.wp.com/capesandtights.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/9798765137550.jpg?resize=193%2C300" alt="Marvel Age of Comics: Doctor Strange: A Decade of Dark Magic" width="193" height="300" />Lastly, in the first entries into the <a href="https://amzn.to/47zdryD" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics</em></a>, <strong>Stuart Moore</strong> deep dives into Doctor Strange.</p>
<p>Enter a world where reality bends, and magic reigns supreme. From psychedelic dimensions to counterculture cool, Doctor Strange was unlike anything else in comics. One of Marvel&#8217;s most fascinating early characters, he began at the hands of co-creators <strong>Stan Lee</strong> and <strong>Steve Ditko</strong>, and his ethereal voyages through other dimensions made him an iconic figure in 1960s culture.</p>
<p>From his first appearance in 1963, Strange captivated a wide range of readers. Over his first ten years, a succession of writers and artists-including <strong>Roy Thomas</strong>, <strong>Gene Colan</strong>, <strong>Gardner F. Fox</strong>, <strong>P. Craig Russell</strong>, <strong>Marie Severin</strong>, and notably <strong>Steve Englehart</strong> and <strong>Frank Brunner</strong>-expanded on Ditko&#8217;s original mind-bending concepts.</p>
<p>This entry in the <em>Marvel Age of Comics</em> explores Strange&#8217;s changing roles as a mystic, super hero, and leader of a chaotic team called the Defenders, and the rise of his popularity, in parallel with the counterculture of the 1960s.</p>
<p>While there are a bunch of unique characters in the Marvel Universe, there is none quite like Doctor Strange. This is why Moore&#8217;s deep dive into the early years this character is so important.</p>
<p>Doctor Strange has never really been one of my favorite characters in the Marvel Universe, but that is why this book was a lot of fun to read. Learning more about someone you are little less knowledgeable about is always fun in my book. Moore gives us just enough information as to not overwhelm us along the way.</p>
<p><em>Marvel Age of Comics: Doctor Strange: A Decade of Dark Magic</em> <a href="https://amzn.to/3JFOqKa" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hit bookstores everywhere</a> on November 11, 2025 from Bloomsbury Academic.

<h2 id="ultimates">Marvel Age of Comics: The Ultimates</h2>
<p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-38646" src="https://i0.wp.com/capesandtights.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/9798765141649.jpg?resize=193%2C300" alt="Marvel Age of Comics: The Ultimates" width="193" height="300" />The second round of books begins with <a href="https://amzn.to/4cP7Bfr" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics: The Ultimates</em></a> as <strong>Ted Adams</strong> gives us more on the way this title shaped the <a href="https://capesandtights.com/marvel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marvel Universe</a>.</p>
<p>Writer <strong>Mark Millar</strong>, with artists <strong>Bryan Hitch</strong>, <strong>Andrew Currie</strong>, and <strong>Paul Neary</strong>, reimagined the classic characters that made up Marvel&#8217;s premiere super hero team, the Avengers. Looking at them through a modern, post-9/11 lens, the creators treated the characters as super soldiers who reported to the US government.</p>
<p>Illustrated with full-color art, Adam&#8217;s entry in <em>The Marvel Age of Comics</em> takes readers through Marvel of the &#8217;90s: the Marvel Knights imprint, the creation of the Ultimate universe with Spider-Man and the X-Men, and finally the Ultimates themselves. With its unique blend of grounded realism and over-the-top action, The Ultimates ensured that comic books and pop culture would never be the same.</p>
<p>One of the biggest stumbling blocks when recommending new comic readers a Marvel series to read is how the new reader might have little context to go on when jumping in. Having no history with these characters makes understanding the new series a bit of a challenge. I commend Marvel to taking this and making a new universe where anyone can dive into a world where everyone is learning about these alternate versions of classic characters together.</p>
<p>Even better is having an author such as Adams breakdown the creation of the Ultimate Universe and the amazing team The Ultimates. Adams gives us insight to the origins of the universe, what made the team so special and how it changed comics going forward. While not required reading for those new the Ultimate Universe, it is for those who want know every detail about the comics and so much more.</p>
<p>Adams goes behind the panels and discusses the creators who made the Ultimate Universe and The Ultimates something special. Mark Millar, Bryan Hitch, Andrew Currie, Paul Neary, and many more! These creators took the task at hand and made something that stood out in comics and still has many years later.</p>
<p><a href="https://amzn.to/4cP7Bfr" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics: The Ultimates</em></a> is a love letter to such a pivotal era in comics as well as useful guide for those who want more from this version of Marvel. Ted Adams brings together the creative risks, cultural context, and discusses the creators who made it special in a way that&#8217;s engaging without ever feeling overwhelming.</p>

<p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-38764" src="https://i0.wp.com/capesandtights.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/9798765138762.jpg?resize=193%2C300" alt="Marvel Age of Comics: Wolverine: Weapon X" width="193" height="300" />As I read through these new <a href="https://amzn.to/4trPOkA" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics</em></a>, some are gaining a bunch of information about characters I have knowledge about and are just glad to learn more, while others such as <a href="https://amzn.to/42ZFqFN" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics: Wolverine: Weapon X</em></a> is one I know of the character and was dying to learn more. <strong>Jim Rugg</strong> dives deep into the original <em>Marvel Comics Presents Weapon X</em> storyline and how it changed the face of Wolverine, but also altered Marvel Comics moving forward.</p>
<p>Naked, bloody, and screaming in pain &#8211; this is the Wolverine that faced readers in the story arc Weapon X. This was more than just the tale of how Wolverine got his adamantium skeleton and claws. Legendary creator <strong>Barry Windsor-Smith</strong> challenged fans&#8217; expectations of super hero stories and created Marvel&#8217;s most brutal and beautiful comic.</p>
<p>In 1991, when Weapon X was first published, Wolverine was one of Marvel&#8217;s most popular super heroes. For Weapon X, creator Windsor-Smith reimagined the super hero origin story as a cyberpunk horror story. A shadowy organization abducts Wolverine in order to create “the ultimate killing machine,” and we are plunged into a story of basic, animalistic survival. As Wolverine endures more and more trauma, the lines between reality and consciousness disappear.</p>
<p>Illustrated with full-color art from this legendary storyline, Rugg&#8217;s entry in the <em>Marvel Age of Comics</em> takes a deep-dive into one of Marvel&#8217;s most experimental and singular comics, and what many consider to be the definitive Wolverine story.</p>
<p>These books are great for those who know nearly nothing of these <a href="https://capesandtights.com/marvel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marvel Comics</a> characters or storylines, but also an amazing additional read for those who have been longtime fans and know most of the ins and outs. This is due to the writers, Rugg in this case, breaking down the original material in a way that gives you all you need to know before adding the details that make these books so amazing.</p>
<p>Rugg also dives head first into the iconic creator of Weapon X, Windsor-Smith, who single handedly wrote, penciled, inked, colored, and lettered this story in 1991. This, as many might know, is mostly unheard of in big-two comics where timelines are tight and need all hands on deck to meet these deadlines. Windsor-Smith held nothing back when crafting Weapon X, crafting some of the most violent and relentless storytelling in Marvel history. Wolverine has become one of Marvel&#8217;s most famous characters and this is at least in some part due to the work Windsor-Smith did on Weapon X.</p>

Jim Rugg Wonderfull breaks down what made Barry Windsor-Smith&#8217;s Weapon X such a pivotal moment in comics in a way that is rewarding to longtime fans as well as newcomers to the tale.</p>

Womack</strong> at the helm.</p>
<p>First introduced in 2011 by <a href="https://capesandtights.com/141-brian-michael-bendis-alex-maleev/"><strong>Brian Michael Bendis</strong></a> and <strong>Sara Pichelli</strong>, Miles Morales reconceived Spider-Man as African American and Latinx, and his debut marked a new direction in the saga of a beloved character.</p>
<p>Miles Morales as Spider-Man is a coming-of-age tale of a smart, affable teen coming into his power. From his reluctance to becoming a super hero to his desire to help others, to the rocky balance between his school life and super hero responsibilities, Miles is always at the precipice of making tough decisions-choices whose consequences are as weighted in his personal life as they often are for the survival of the world.</p>
<p>Illustrated with full-color art, Womack&#8217;s entry in the <em>Marvel Age of Comics</em> looks at the hugely successful reimagining of one of the most popular super hero characters of all time.</p>
<p>Womack isn&#8217;t someone who had a comic book in their hand from birth, or even someone who writes superhero stories on the regular. Ytasha is more like most of the readers of these books, someone who found a passion in reading comics and is sharing their experience with not only comics in general but the impact of such a character as Miles Morales.</p>
<p>This book is an examination of the introduction of not only a new character, but one that changed the face of Marvel Comics as well as a socially impactful character that was perfectly executed on the pages of comics. Miles Morales brings new struggles, new perspectives, and new abilities to the classic Spider-Man character in ways that most other Ultimate Characters weren&#8217;t able to accomplish.</p>
<p>Womack does a fantastic job telling us who Miles Morales is, how he was originally created, and how his story compares to other classic literature in ways that surprised me. After six of these new books, I felt things might get repetitive, but I was wrong. Each discusses an important part of Marvel Comics from the perspective of so many great voices.</p>
<p>Marvel Age of Comics: Spider-Man: Miles Morales is really more than just a book about the fan-favorite Spider-man character, but a thoughtful exploration of of how Miles Morales reshaped Marvel Comics and brought in a whole new generation of comic readers. Ytasha L. Womack brings passion and insight to this book and continues to push this series forward.</p>

<h2 id="explodes">Marvel Age of Comics: Marvel Explodes: From Bullpen to Big Business</h2>
<p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-40358" src="https://i0.wp.com/capesandtights.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/9798216377719.jpg?resize=193%2C300" alt="Marvel Age of Comics: Marvel Explodes: From Bullpen to Big Business" width="193" height="300" />Legendary industry professional <strong>Paul Levitz</strong> gives us a unique look at one of <a href="https://capesandtights.com/marvel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marvel</a>&#8216;s some of most impactful years in <a href="https://amzn.to/3Tqw3h9" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics: Marvel Explodes: From Bullpen to Big Business</em></a>, a unique and amazing addition to the <a href="https://amzn.to/4fP6wph" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics</em> series</a>.</p>
<p>Starting in 1968 when three classic Marvel anthologies were split into separate titles for Iron Man, Captain America, Sub-Mariner, The Hulk, Doctor Strange, and Nick Fury Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., Marvel began an explosive arc of growth which culminated in becoming America’s largest comics publisher in 1972.</p>
<p>Marvel Explodes tells the story year-by-year, exploring this decisive period from a creative standpoint – the expanded mythology, the new titles, and the writers and artists who would join to fuel the explosion – as well as a business the key transitions, including new distributor, owners, and opportunities.</p>
<p>I have read my fair share of books based around the history and lore of Marvel Comics, but Levitz comes at this addition to the <a href="https://amzn.to/4fP6wph" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics</em> series</a> with a fresh and unique perspective, making it stand out from the crowd. First off, the book is shorter than most history of the company, but it goes beyond the its succinct storytelling into a view of the history that only a few people can tell. Levitz takes on this book coming from a legendary career as a DC Executive, comics editor, and writer.</p>
<p>What makes <a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=25361&amp;awinaffid=1475442&amp;ued=https%3A%2F%2Flibro.fm%2Faudiobooks%2F9798216477525" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Explodes: From Bullpen to Big Business</em></a> a bit different than most entries into the <em>Marvel Age of Comics</em> series so far, is the broad range of history it covers. Not an entire history of Marvel Comics, but one that spans nearly a decade and covers all shapes and sizes of Marvel Comics. Each other entry has a bit more of a tight focus, making this one a bit different. Not to mention, Levitz is somewhat of an outsider when it comes to Marvel as he was an Executive and editor at DC Comics, allowing for a unique point-of-view.</p>
<p>Levitz dives into some of the creative decisions that needed to be made to get Marvel to where it is now, and some of the lucky breaks they got along the way. It&#8217;s not an overly in-depth story, but one that tells what needs to be said, focusing more of the comics themselves and those creators and not the personalities that came along with the work.</p>
<p><a href="https://amzn.to/3Tqw3h9" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Explodes: From Bullpen to Big Business</em></a> may not be the most exhaustive history of Marvel ever written, but that&#8217;s what makes it such an enjoyable addition to the <a href="https://amzn.to/4fP6wph" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics</em> series</a>. Paul Levitz puts together a concise and insightful look at one of Marvel Comics most transformative decades through someone who industry experience with a unique perspective.</p>

<h2 id="secretwars">Marvel Age of Comics: Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars: The Epic 1980s Saga</h2>
<p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-40642 size-medium" src="https://i0.wp.com/capesandtights.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/9798765141687.jpg?resize=193%2C300" alt="Marvel Age of Comics: Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars: The Epic 1980s Saga" width="193" height="300" />The <a href="https://capesandtights.com/marvel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marvel Comics</a> Special Event is something we expect up to a few times per year nowadays, but there was a time where it wasn&#8217;t the norm. The <a href="https://amzn.to/3Sak07h" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars</em></a> event lasted 12 issue starting in May 1984 as the first-ever line-wide crossover and it wasn&#8217;t even for the comics per se, but to help sell toys. Tom Mason goes through the event and the last impressions in <a href="https://amzn.to/3TUyqsH" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics: Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars: The Epic 1980s Saga</em></a>.</p>
<p>In 1984, Marvel&#8217;s Editor-in-Chief <strong>Jim Shooter</strong> brought Marvel&#8217;s heroes and villains together for an epic battle that became the template for comic book crossovers and impacted Marvel&#8217;s storylines for decades, including major changes to the Spider-Man mythos and the introduction of a new villain.</p>
<p>Within the 12-part storyline, characters who had never met before would find themselves thrown together to achieve a common goal. They formed shaky alliances. There were tremendous power struggles. Teams within teams would form. Relationships would be tested, and both heroes and villains would never be the same. Neither would the Marvel Universe.</p>
<p><a href="https://amzn.to/3TUyqsH" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars: The Epic 1980s Saga</em></a> is now the eighth book in the <a href="https://amzn.to/4fP6wph" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics</em> series</a> from Bloomsbury Academic I have had the privilege of reading. Each author has their own way of diving into the history of Marvel comics and while I have absolutely loved some, others I have just simply enjoyed the time living within the Marvel Universe. This book tends to lean closer to the latter.</p>
<p>Mason does a truly fantastic job explaining the events of <em>Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars</em>, which is stellar for those who have never read the 12-issue arc or at least it&#8217;s been awhile since you cracked open your floppies or the collected edition. This allowed me to feel immersed into the story once again, this time in a new and fresh way. What made this entry into the <em>Marvel Age of Comics</em> series not one of my favorites was that we got mostly a retelling of the overall story and only snippets of the inside baseball of what took place behind the scenes.</p>
<p>Yes, Mason does do a great job setting up the real reason behind the series in the first place, a deal to sell toys surrounding the special event, but as he goes over every issue in the series, there is mostly just breaking down the actual events on page and less about the inner workings that I had hoped would be there. We get a few quotes or fun facts about each issue at the end of a chapter, but nothing hooked me into wanting to know more, just wanting to relive the overall event.</p>
<p><a href="https://amzn.to/3TUyqsH" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars: The Epic 1980s Saga</em></a> was a great trip down memory lane, reliving the experience of reading the event that kicked-off Marvel&#8217;s history of epic crossovers. Tom Mason does a fantastic job breaking down each issue in the 12-issue arc with a few fun facts and details to add to the overall history. The biggest impact this entry into the <a href="https://amzn.to/4fP6wph" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Marvel Age of Comics</em> series</a> did for me was pushing me to <a href="https://amzn.to/3Sak07h" target="_blank" rel="noopener">read the original comics</a> over again and even jump into the <a href="https://amzn.to/4xFjWeU" target="_blank" rel="noopener">novelization of the story</a> by <strong>Alexander Irvine</strong>.</p>

<h2 id="doom">Marvel Age of Comics: Doctor Doom: The Making of Marvel&#8217;s Greatest Villain</h2>
<p><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-42077" src="https://i0.wp.com/capesandtights.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/9798216453987.jpg?resize=193%2C300" alt="Marvel Age of Comics: Doctor Doom: The Making of Marvel's Greatest Villain" width="193" height="300" />You can&#8217;t read a <a href="https://capesandtights.com/marvel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marvel</a> comic these days without Doctor Doom showing up. Yes, that is due to the fact a very expensive feature film with the Marvel villain&#8217;s name in the title and the synergy Marvel is attempting to drive readers during this time. However, it is also because Doctor Doom is one of the most iconic and longest standing antagonists in the history of Marvel Comics. Bryan Stratton dives into the character of Doom and the history surrounding his creation and the growth and destruction caused by him over the many years of Marvel Comics with <a href="https://link.amazon/B08iK48eb" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Doctor Doom: The Making of Marvel&#8217;s Greatest Villain</em></a>.</p>
<p>Genius. Monarch. Sorcerer. God. Since the birth of the Marvel Universe, Doctor Doom has left scars across it as indelible as the ones he hides beneath his cold iron mask.</p>
<p>Victor von Doom is one of Marvel&#8217;s most popular villains, having menaced just about every Marvel hero since 1962. He&#8217;s a dark sorcerer who fights the devil every Midsummer&#8217;s Eve for his mother&#8217;s soul, as well as a mad scientist with an inexhaustible supply of robot duplicates and the coolest time machine ever invented.</p>
<p>This entry in Marvel Age of Comics chronicles why this fascinating fiend has remained a compelling character for seven decades and counting, from his first appearance in Fantastic Four #5 to his conquest of the Marvel Universe in One World Under Doom.</p>
<p>When it comes to the tell-all story of a Marvel Character, there are few with the credits to do such a thing than Stratton. The creator and co-host of the Marvel by the Month podcast, which covers the history of Marvel Comics – and the events that shaped them – one month at a time, has a history of tell Marvel history. Therefor, when it comes to Doctor Doom, Victor von Doom, and the villain created many years ago, Stratton does a bang-up job crafting a story that tells the narrative from inception to nearly present day.</p>
<p>Doom is one of the characters with a rich and varying history. He has been a regular genius, a god, a leader, and even a sorcerer. With his different roles over many decades it can be hard to keep things straight. While I have mentioned in previous reviews of the Bloomsbury <a href="https://amzn.to/4fP6wph" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marvel Age of Comics</a> books that sometimes I need less of a blow-by-blow of the history of one character, I would be wrong with this one. Stratton brought me up-to-speed with the ins and outs of Von Doom, just in time for the feature film, allowing me to digest a ton of history in only a few pages.</p>
<p>Stratton crafts the tale where I was not bored, or overwhelmed, with wonderful pacing and just the right amount on information. The relevance of each moment and how it connects to the broader universe and repercussions in both the fictional Marvel universe as well as the all-to-real printing industry of comics.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=25361&amp;awinaffid=1475442&amp;ued=https%3A%2F%2Flibro.fm%2Faudiobooks%2F9798216606451" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Doctor Doom: The Making of Marvel&#8217;s Greatest Villain</em></a> made catching up with the most iconic Marvel villain extremely easy and prepared me for the Doomsday event this December. Author Bryan Stratton lays the foundation, builds the story, and nails the history of Doctor Doom in a way that was easy to read and taught me so much.</p>

<p><strong>Writer:</strong> Matt Miner<br />
<strong>Artist:</strong> Clayton McCormack<br />
<strong>Publisher:</strong> Mad Cave Studios</p>
<p>A sleepy 1980s town is stalked by a masked slasher at the height of the Satanic Panic, where every heavy metal record, Dungeons &amp; Dragons campaign and teenage outsider is treated as evidence of devil worship. As fear spreads and bodies pile up, three local misfits become the prime suspects in a series of gruesome murders. Join D&amp;D geeks and Ozzy enthusiasts Naz, Sal, and Terry as they race to clear their names, survive an increasingly blood-soaked town and unmask the real killer before paranoia claims more innocent lives. But in a community eager to blame the weird kids, proving their innocence may be deadlier than facing the murderer.</p>
<p>From Ringo Award and GLAAD Media Award-winning writer <strong>Matt Miner</strong> (<em>Poser</em>, <em>Young Men in Love</em>, <em>Critical Role: Vox Machina Origins</em>) and artist <strong>Clayton McCormack</strong> (<em>Batman: White Knight Presents – Generation Joker</em>) comes a brutal new horror series that blends slasher terror and the paranoia of the Satanic Panic into one unforgettable nightmare.</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="https://link.amazon/B02rfRzqv" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Satanic Panic</em></a> kicks things off with a debut issue that mixes everyday small town horrors with the terror of a slasher and maybe something more.

And in a blink, the first humans he sees have stopped looking like food and have started looking like &#8230; friends &#8230;?</p>
<p>The team behind <em>20th Century Men</em>, the bold mission statement that launched writer <strong>Deniz Camp</strong> and artist <strong>Stipan Morian</strong> to the next level of the comics industry, has reunited at last to bring you a world ruled by ruthless kill-or-be-killed logic, pitted against the demands of a single beating, bleeding, emotional heart!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How can you not at least pickup and glance at a comic with the title <a href="https://link.amazon/B02rfRzqv" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Satanic Panic</em></a>? A <a href="https://capesandtights.com/horror/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">horror</a> story based in the 1980s where teens are just looking to have some nerdy fun but end up in the sights of a slasher and the horrible people who run their town. Writer <strong>Matt Miner</strong> and artist <strong>Clayton McCormack</strong> deliver a chilling story that blends nerd culture, closed minded people, and slasher goodness into one thrilling comic.</p>
<p>A sleepy 1980s town is stalked by a masked slasher at the height of the Satanic Panic, where every heavy metal record, Dungeons &amp; Dragons campaign and teenage outsider is treated as evidence of devil worship. As fear spreads and bodies pile up, three local misfits become the prime suspects in a series of gruesome murders. Join D&amp;D geeks and Ozzy enthusiasts Naz, Sal, and Terry as they race to clear their names, survive an increasingly blood-soaked town and unmask the real killer before paranoia claims more innocent lives. But in a community eager to blame the weird kids, proving their innocence may be deadlier than facing the murderer.</p>
<p>As a child of the 1980s I was a generation separated from the height of Satanic Panic, being only 4 years old when life moved into the 1990s, but I don&#8217;t live under a rock and know it was a weird time to be alive. What this comic, with the iconic name, does is give you a bit of insight to the crazy time, while also giving us the slasher goodness that we could hope for.</p>
<p>Yes, <a href="https://link.amazon/B02rfRzqv" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Satanic Panic</em></a> is filled with the gruesome horror we showed up for, but also shows the horrific things those who are deemed to be considered outsiders went through during these times in places such as this. Let&#8217;s be honest, kids still have to deal with this shit in present day as well. Not just the bullying for playing Dungeons &amp; Dragons, but the homophobia and racism that runs ramped through small towns.</p>
<p>These kids are just wanting to have a bit of fun, smoke a bit a grass, listen to heavy metal, and play D&amp;D with their friends, but all hell breaks loose – with them being the victims – and they become the target just for being a bit different. The group of teens become an easy target when your small town police is filled with homophobic and racist police. But there is something more sinister in this town and it goes beyond the closed-minded leaders.</p>
<p><em>Satanic Panic</em> has the brutal horror moments, but also the more conversational intimate moments that spread the unease and dread. The suspense is lingering and the mystery is at an all-time high as the first issue comes to a close. It&#8217;s a dark and moody, slasher-y first issue that has me eagerly awaiting more.</p>
<p>The artwork is edgy, dark and gritty adding to this horror vibe. McCormack&#8217;s lines have a tension to them that just deepens the horrors that light within. <strong>Oliver Mertz</strong> adds colors that are also dark and ominous, rounding out the visuals.</p>
<p><a href="https://link.amazon/B02rfRzqv" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Satanic Panic</em></a> kicks things off with a debut issue that mixes everyday small town horrors with the terror of a slasher and maybe something more. Writer Matt Miner and artist Clayton McCormack craft a meaningful, yet terrifying comic that will frighten you on many levels. There is definitely something here with this first issue.</p>
<p><a href="https://link.amazon/B02rfRzqv" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Satanic Panic #1</em></a> hits local comic shops on October 28, 2026 from Mad Cave Studios.</p>
