Mover Shaper/Onus by Connor Willumsen

A beautiful new flip-sketchbook by Canadian artist Connor Willumsen. Trippy urban scenes on one side, inspiring figure drawing on the other. Two zines for the price of one!

Smokin’ Bones: Grim Creeper & The Lust Bunnies by Reginald Péan
Babes. Death. So sick. We’ll have Reginald’s originals on display at Secret Headquarters for the month of February, more details here.

Kid Mafia Digest by Michael DeForge
The digest collects Kid Mafia issues #1 – 3. The original three zines are long sold out and have never been collected. The digest covers are brand new and designed by Michael especially for this volume.

We here at Secret Headquarters are huge fans of Michael DeForge and are honored to be working with him again after publishing his zine, Incinerator, in 2012. Michael is one of the most innovative and talented cartoonists in the world, and we know that you’ll love his work as much as we do.

This Week’s Must Reads

Paul Pope’s BATTLING BOY!
BattlingBoy-100-84
So gorgeous, so good. A fantastic story for all ages. Maybe my favorite thing Paul Pope’s ever done!

Shaolin Cowboy #1
7936133-the-shaolin-cowboy-1
He’s back, y’all! Jumping straight into murdering zombies with a chainsaw-bō. Bless you, Geof Darrow.

Rocket Girl #1
rocketgirl1
A really fun, beautifully drawn sci-fi story. Can’t wait to read more about the New York Teen Police Department.

Multiple Warheads Down Fall
multWarheads-downfall-cover
Re-prints of all the pre-Alphabet To Infinity stories. No one does sexy and fun quite like Brandon Graham; I just adore this series. Warning: not for kiddies.

Thor God Of Thunder #14

Wow, Jason Aaron is really great at writing terrifying villains, huh? I also love how this story has turned into one giant badass D&D campaign.

Afterlife With Archie #1
afterlife_with_archie_01_cover_francavilla_low
Seriously spooky and entertaining visit to Riverdale. Jughead, look upon what thou hath wrought and despair!

Runners Up: Avengers Arena #16, Coffin Hill #1, Walking Dead #115, X-Men #6, Three #1
