FML #1
Writer: Kelly Sue DeConnick
Artist: David Lopez
Publisher: Dark Horse Comics
Cover Price: $4.99
Release Date: November 6, 2024
Riley is a teen that sketches out his heavy metal future with a ballpoint pen between monster movies and band practice. But musical stardom needs to compete with high school, the temper of a former Riot Grrrl mother, the morbid obsessions of a goth sister, and the eccentricities of bandmates that threaten to drive him and everyone around him insane. The balance gets harder after a ritual during a party in Portland's Forest Park causes him to wake up one day to discover that the creatures, witchcraft, and metal world he's obsessed with may be a bit closer to home than he preferred.

ATOMIC ROBO: AGENTS OF CHANGE
Writer: Brian Clevinger
Artist: Scott Wegener
Publisher: Tesladyne LLC
ATOMIC ROBO AND THE AGENTS OF C.H.A.N.G.E. is the latest chapter in Robo's exciting life. Now he's...sort of a university administrator? But for a sci-fi action school to train the next next generation of ACTION SCIENTISTS including his sorta-secret robot son with the rebooted intelligence core from the Advanced Learning Algorithm Network that nearly killed all life on Earth, and framed Atomic Robo for it, and got Tesladyne shut down by the secret fascist science police, which indirectly threatened all life on Earth (again), and got a bunch of his comrades probably killed and definitely hunted as terrorists for a few years. Uh, but that was the old ALAN. The new Alan is a much nicer fellow, but he's still being kept secret on the Tesladyne campus because folks might link him to all that other stuff and, golly, that wouldn't be pleasant.
