Abe Sapien #35 (Dark Horse)
written by Mike Mignola, Scott Allie; art by Max Fiumara; coloring by Dave Stewart

The latest issue of Abe Sapien is an important one that shouldn’t be missed because it is the last issue by artist Max Fiumara. Fiumara has been working on the series since the first issue and has brought a beautiful artistic style that is perfectly reminiscent of Mike Mignola. This story marks the arrival of Abe Sapien in England before the comic’s plot is blown wide open and Abe Sapien faces the necromancer.

Army of Darkness: Furious Road #5 (Dynamite)
written by Nancy Collins; art by Kewber Baal

Ash is back, baby! The Army of Darkness: Furious Road series is one of the standout series under the Dynamite banner because it manages to capture the joy and excitement of the Evil Dead and Army of Darkness films, while still having fun with an original story. How could the comic not be fun? Ash carries around the head of Frankenstein’s Monster for most of the issue (that’s wickedly good fun).
