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 American Caper #1, TMNT x Godzilla #1, 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 November 12, 2025.
American Caper #1
Writer: Dan Houser
Artist: David Lapham
Publisher: Dark Horse
A tale of two totally normal, completely damaged families in a world of corrupt businesses, inept local politicians, bungling criminals, and unfortunate leisurewear. We follow the fortunes of two neighbors on the point of collapse: a Mormon hit man and a gambling-addict lawyer, both intertwined in a real-estate deal gone wrong. Mix in a Mexican beauty queen on the run from her past, two escaped convicts in love, a Wall Street billionaire who has become a cowboy, and a maniac hell-bent on revenge. American culture has become a war about real estate, violence, and snake oil.
From the tax avoiders in the manicured wilderness of Wyoming to the thought police of liberal Brooklyn to the confused political and environmental battlegrounds of Florida, one thing is certain: This tragedy is someone else’s fault.
American Caper #1 is an exaggerated, funny, and at times unsettling premiere issue. Dan Houser crafts a satire that pokes fun at all sides of the conversation without holding back, while David Lapham’s gritty artwork perfectly matches the tone and energy of the story. It’ll be interesting to see where this creative team goes after this first issue. – CLICK HERE to read the entire review
TMNT x Godzilla #1
Writer: Tim Seeley
Artist: Fero Pe
Publisher: IDW Publishing
The Heroes in a Half-Shell are taking on the King of the Monsters!
Long before the organization was corrupted by Shredder, the Foot Clan’s original purpose was to save Japan from kaiju! Now, in the present day, Godzilla and its fellow monsters have reappeared. Not only is the Foot not prepared to stop them… it would seem Shredder himself is behind the attacks! The villainous ninja is attempting to use the kaiju to create a new mutagen — one that would give his henchman a massive upgrade.
Can the Turtles make it to Japan in time to stop this madness?! Join superstar writer Tim Seeley (Godzilla, Revival) and incredible artist Fero Pe (Nightwatcher, TMNT x Stranger Things) in the biggest crossover of the year!
At first glance, Tim Seeley and Fero Pe’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x Godzilla was, damn this is going to fun, and it absolutely is, but the first issue reveals there is much more beneath the surface. The story offers depth, some surprises, a clear sense of purpose, as well as lays a fantastic foundation for what is the comic book crossover of the year. – CLICK HERE to read the entire review
