As part of the celebration marking a decade of the epic zombie series by Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard, Image Comics will be having midnight release parties for The Walking Dead #115 with retailers across United States and Canada.

In the new All Out Warstory arc Rick Grimes and his group of Survivors in a fight for their lives against The Saviors, The Hilltop, and The Kingdom.


Comic book stores participating in the event which will make The Walking Dead #115 available at midnight on the night before the release date of October 9, 2013 will be able to order a special variant cover with brand new art from Adlard.       

The literary pulp adventure by creators Frank J. Barbiere and Chris Mooneyham continues with the sixth issue titled Five Ghosts: The Haunting of Fabian Gray #6.

Infamous treasure hunter Fabian Gray after being bewitched by the mysterious power of "The Dreamstone," must battle the unwieldy power of five archetypal ghosts that both possess and guide him.

“We certainly have a lot of stories to tell in this universe and are very excited to have the opportunity to tell them in an ongoing series, stated writer Barbiere.  “We're also excited to have our good friend Garry Brown [The Massive, Mass Effect] contributing some amazing art to the series for issue six; Garry's a fantastic artist and we think our readers will enjoy his take on the Five Ghosts universe!”

Five Ghosts: The Haunting of Fabian Gray #6 goes on sale October 30 and can be pre-ordered from the August issue of Previews.

Originating as a webcomic written and drawn over the period of a day six years ago, God Hates Astronauts by Ryan Browne is bringing its edgy humour to Image Comics. 

NASA hires the Power Persons 5 to keep the nation's farmers from launching themselves into space in homemade rocket ships. The bad news is that NASA is wasting their money, because this gang of hooligans is going to hang out, get drunk, have extra-marital affairs, and occasionally save the day in spite of themselves.

Readers will discover 21 pin-ups from artists like Chris Burnham, Rebekah Isaacs, Tom Fowler, and Mike Norton. "The book comes from drawing exactly what I want to draw and then finding a logic to the story that will connect all my gags and references to superheroes and Robocop," stated Browne.  "The origin stories were a fun way for me to flesh out the backgrounds that were only hinted at within the first story arc.  On top of that, I love my friends and I love forcing them to draw what I write so it was a win-win situation for me."


God Hates Astronautsarrives on October 9, 2013 and can be pre-ordered from the August issue of Previews.
