Our highlights:
FAITHLESS III #1
(W) Brian Azzarello (A/CA) Maria Llovet
The final act of Azzarello and Llovet's erotic thriller masterpiece!
Nine months after her mysterious disappearance, Faith suddenly drops back onto the map.
While the art world debates whether her disappearance was a piece of performance art or all just a publicity stunt, Faith retreats to Louis's studio to recover from her journey into the unknown.
But Ginny begins to realize that something is very much amiss with Faith. Where was she for nine months?
And why does Faith suddenly seem so obsessed with Ginny's son Jacob?
The acclaimed team of New York Times bestselling writer Brian Azzarello (Batman: Damned) and Maria Llovet (Luna) reunite for the third and final act of their erotic thriller masterpiece!
LAND OF THE LIVING GODS #1
(W) Isaac Mogajane (A/CA) Santtos
It is said that when the world dies, the spirits of the first people will return to witness the last days of humanity. Well, the spirits have arrived, and the end is here. But not everyone has given up hope.
Naledi, a teenage girl living in the deserted city once called Johannesburg, has always believed that there is a land, hidden away in time where the gods still live. And where there are gods, there are miracles. Perhaps even miracles that are big enough to save our dying planet. And so, after a lifetime of isolation, Naledi will head out into the unknown with little to hold onto but her faith - and her magical pet plant, Buyo.
A fairy tale for the times in which we find ourselves, brought to life by South African writer and producer Isaac Mogajane (Matwetwe, Catching Feelings) and Brazilian artist Santtos (Night Shift), LAND OF THE LIVING GODS will introduce you to a world of wonder and cruelty, beauty and perseverance - and will leave you profoundly changed.
PROPHET #1 FACSIMILE EDITION

STRANGE LOVE ADVENTURES #1
Written by Rex Ogle, Rich Douek, Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, Ram V, Stephanie Phillips, Devin Grayson, and others Art by Geraldo Borges, Christian Duce, Phil Hester, Ande Parks, Jon Sommariva, Roger Robinson, and others!
Ahhhh! Can you smell that? Love is in the air again, and we're here to warm your heart and brighten your soul with eight timeless tales of...weird love?
Sorry, hold on, I just need to read that again. Yup, that says weird love.
Well, all right. Looks like we've got stories of a love as old as Jurassic time on Dinosaur Island, a bromance between Peacemaker and his eagle sidekick Eagly, and a first date you never saw coming.
Oh wow, these really do sound sweet and heartwarming! So c'mon, let your freak flag fly and get weird this Valentine's Day with us for Weird Love Tales #1!
SUICIDE SQUAF: BLAZE #1
(W) Simon Spurrier (A/CA) Aaron Campbell
The attacks begin without warning. Brutal, sudden...cannibalistic.
A metahuman with all the power of Superman but none of his humanity. An unstoppable being ruled only by hunger and instinct, striking at random across the world. To stop this threat, Harley Quinn, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, and King Shark have been assigned to corral, nursemaid, and if necessary execute five deadly new recruits: the expendable products of a secret government procedure called BLAZE.
They're ordinary prisoners, endowed with incredible power...and the certain knowledge that it'll burn through them like wildfire. They have six months to live, maximum. If you're staring down life in prison, maybe that's a good deal-especially if you're Michael Van Zandt, desperate to reunite with the mad lover who forsook you after your Bonnie-and-Clyde crime spree. But that power? It's surprisingly transferable.
As each member of the Squad dies... the others get stronger. What would a hardened criminal do with that knowledge? Worse yet: What would a desperate, lovesick idiot do with it? One thing's certain: this time the Suicide Squad's bitten off more than it can chew. Win or lose-they all burn.
Simon Spurrier and Aaron Campbell, the creative team behind the critically acclaimed John Constantine: Hellblazer, have been turned loose on the one DC title even more horrific and blackhearted than that one! We suggest you brace yourselves...
MANOR BLACK: FIRE IN THE BLOOD #1
(W) Cullen Bunn, Brian Hurtt (A/CA) Brian Hurtt
From the creators of Harrow County and The Sixth Gun comes the next chapter of this gothic horror fantasy about a family of sorcerers in crisis.
The powerful and ancient blood sorcerer Roman Black has taken a young fire mage under his wing after she has done the impossible-taken her magic house's totem spirit inside herself. But the totem is powerful, and may be impossible to control, especially when Roman's children begin to see the young mage as a threat.
MONKEY PRINCE #1
(W) Gene Luen Yang (A/CA) Bernard Chang
Introducing the newest hero in the DCU, the great sage, equal to the heavens, better than his predecessor the legendary Monkey King, even better than the Justice League-and definitely the Teen Titans-(actually, all the heroes combined), everyone put your hands together for...the Monkey Prince! Marcus Sun moves around a lot because his adoptive parents are freelance henchpeople, so this month he finds himself as the new kid at Gotham City High School, where a mysterious man with pig features asks Marcus to walk through a water curtain to reveal himself as who Marcus really is...someone who has adventured through The Journey to the West, can transform into 72 different formations, can clone himself using his hairs, and is called...the Monkey Prince!

THE X-CELLENT #1
(W) Peter Milligan (A/CA) Mike Allred/Laura Allred
IT'S FINALLY HERE!
