SUNNY-LUNA TRAVELLING ORACLE
Writer: Matthew Erman
Artist: Sam Beck
Publisher: Dark Horse Comics/Berger Books
Cover Price: $24.99
Release Date: August 21, 2024
Esta, a lonely, book-hungry, restless teen, must fight to save the planet in this eco-noir graphic novel thriller that's part Fahrenheit 451 and part Station Eleven. In the devastated dystopian dust bowl of what was once America, a mesmerizing stage show called The Sunny-Luna Travelling Oracle comes to Esta's town. When Sunny and Luna take an interest in her, it feels like her ticket out. But these mysterious proprietors are secretly members of a harsh authoritarian order, and they have a hidden agenda: scavenge for mythic texts that hold the last hope for reviving a natural world-and destroy them. Esta is the unwitting key to this strange magic, and she soon finds herself literally transported to a supernatural Wonderland-and the twisted plot of Sunny and Luna.

DISCUSSION

Werewolf By Night
The Werewolf by Night character first appeared in Marvel Spotlight #2 (Feb. 1972) and was based on an idea by Roy Thomas. The series name was suggested by Stan Lee and the debut story was crafted by Gerry Conway and Mike Ploog. The character made additional appearances in Marvel Spotlight #3 and #4 and then graduated to his own eponymous series in September 1972. Werewolf by Night was published for 43 issues and ran through March 1977. Issue #32 (August 1975) contains the first appearance of Moon Knight. Jack Russell co-starred with Tigra in Giant Size Creatures #1 (July 1974), which was the first appearance of Greer Grant as Tigra instead of the Cat. That series was retitled Giant-Size Werewolf with its second issue.

MAJOR SPOILERS POLL OF THE WEEK
As mentioned yesterday, the S.W.O.R.D. series is coming to an end, but writer Kieron Gillen says it will end naturally and make a heck of a mini-series.  This got us thinking - instead of an ongoing series that has the potential of being canceled midway through its run, would going the mini-series route be the better option?  That way if the series stumbles, it can wrap up the mini-series and the company can move on.  As long as the minis continue to sell, the company can keep producing arc after arc.

Age of Reptiles: The Journey #1
Ricardo Delgado (W/A) and Jim Campbell (C)

Dawn breaks over a sprawling forest in Cretaceous North America—a dawn far colder than its peaceful, forest-dwelling herbivores are used to. The seasons are changing, and it’s time for the able-bodied to migrate south. But the trek is a dangerous one even when massive herds band together, for while there is safety in numbers, numbers also draw attention, and the carnivores are moving in! This journey may not last long when the first hunter arrives, a ferocious tyrannosaurus rex who has her sights set on a young triceratops!

MAJOR SPOILERS DISCUSSION: PARKER
The Hunter, the first book in the Parker series, is the story of a man who hits New York head-on like a shotgun blast to the chest. Betrayed by the woman he loved and double-crossed by his partner in crime, Parker makes his way cross-country with only one thought burning in his mind – to coldly exact his revenge and reclaim what was taken from him! Richard (Donald Westlake) Stark’s groundbreaking Parker books are adapted for the first time as a series of graphic novels by Darwyn Cooke. The initial graphic novel brings to life the first Parker book, The Hunter, which introduces readers to the dangerous anti-hero’s cold and calculated world of criminals, thugs, and grifters.
