White House Robot Romance #1

When Chef-9 learns that Service-1 is scheduled for immediate decommissioning, he makes an unprecedented choice: abandon his station, break protocol, and flee with Service-1 into the streets of Washington, D.C. But what starts as a desperate act of defiance quickly spirals into an international crisis. Service-1’s memory banks hold highly classified state secrets — ones that could tilt the balance of power between America and Canada. As paranoia mounts and the military mobilizes, the runaway robots find themselves hunted by government agents and targeted by corporate spies.
Black Diamond #1
Writer: Brendan Columbus
Artist: Danilo Beyruth

A chilling Nordic thriller unfolds as Panick Entertainment presents Black Diamond, a gripping mini-series fusing Hitchcock’s psychological tension with the folk horror of The Wicker Man. On a family ski trip, Owen and Victoria Welch’s son is abducted. A mysterious cult gives them an unthinkable choice: find another child to sacrifice — or lose their own. As time runs out and the authorities close in, the couple must confront how far they’ll go to save their family.
