So we all know now that Captain Blood thinks that for independent comics to thrive, readers will have to assert their readerly power by asking for and supporting indie comics they want to read. But I don't want to leave it at that, so I'm going to start posting the information and order numbers for our upcoming books every month (with a little production note, if possible). This month in Previews, you can check out and order comics coming out in August. And for SLG, these are our new offerings:
Gargoyles: Bad Guys Trade Paperback
by Greg Weisman, Karine Charlebois, et al.
Black and white interiors, 160 pages, $17.95

Five of the toughest villains in the Gargoyles Universe: Hunter – member of a Scottish family of gargoyle-slayers; Dingo – Australian mercenary and charter member of the deadly Pack; Matrix – a nanotech hive-mind artificial intelligence that came very close to destroying the Earth; Yama – a Japanese gargoyle who betrayed his own clan, and Fang – the mutate who would be king. Take this quintet of felons and force them to work on the side of the angels. It may be hard to believe, but these Bad Guys are the best hope we’ve got! Gargoyles series creator Greg Weisman is the writer, with art by fan favorite Karine Charlebois and tones by fan favorite Stephanie Lostimolo. Bad Guys: Time to fight fire with fire.
