We hope the regular readers are staying healthy!

Welcome back to new comics shipping, just in time for curbside pickup. Because we had to order these comics when we thought we were still forced to be closed, we don't have rack copies of most of these periodicals, but we're happy to reorder for you -- just email divisadero@comixexperience.com or call 415-863-9258 and we'll get whatever comics your want for you!

Most of our received graphic novels ARE in stock, you can order some for Wednesday contactless curbside pickup (WEAR YOUR MASK) by using our webstore at https://comix-experience.myshopify.com/

We do have stock on Kieron Gillen's LUDOCRATS, the best kids book is SUPERMAN SMASHES THE KLAN, and a superb reprint (and value) is that EX MACHINA COMPENDIUM.

Everything is under the cut, so what looks good to YOU?

Not a ton of debuts this week, but we think the week's "sure thing" is the new Jonathan Hickman joint: DECORUM, but we're sure at least some people are excited for franchise expansions: X-book with CABLE, and STAR WARS with BOUNTY HUNTERS. On the book side of the world, it's youth facing: ALL MY FRIENDS ARE GHOSTS, a new DC SUPERHERO GIRLS, and the first volume of ADVENTURE FINDERS. So much more under the cut…..What looks good to YOU?

Its a small, but super-packed week. The major hit of the week is clearly the Tom King / Mitch Gerads STRANGE ADVENTURES, but we also really liked JOIN THE FUTURE, STRANGE ACADEMY, KING OF NOWHERE, the new anthology series MARVEL, and CIMMERIAN QUEEN OF BLACK COAST. So much more this week, under the jump.... what looks good to YOU?

Another great week for periodical comics! for debuts, we like the looks of AMETHYST, FINGER GUNS, and GIANT-SIZE X-MEN. We also think TOMORROW and HIDDEN SOCIETY from Dark Horse look worth checking out. But there’s much much more under the jump — what looks good to YOU?

What an oddly shaped week! So many comics shipping and so few books! I see many new debuts for you to take a look at, probably led by the relaunch of WOLVERINE, or DCEASED: THE UNKILLABLES, but I also like the look of BANG!, MARVEL VOICES, PLUNGE, GODKILLERS and ON THE STUMP.... yow, so many comics! And even more after the jump…. What looks good to YOU??!?

Nice broad week with many favorites! For new series, the obvious standout is GREEN LANTERN SEASON TWO, but I know many folks are also looking forward to HARLEY QUINN & THE BIRDS OF PREY, and there's also lots of love for Boom's ALIENATED. On the book side, everyone in the world should have a copy of WHAT'S MICHAEL in their collection, there's a new middle reader ZATANNA & THE HOUSE OF SECRETS, and I'm certainly curious for the adaptation of Wes Anderson's ISLE OF DOGS. Much more under the jump! What looks good to YOU?

Say, I think there's a theme with this week's new comics? We're digging THE MAN WHO FUCKED UP TIME, BACKTRACK, and X-MEN/FANTASTIC FOUR. On the book side of the world, there's the kids-oriented BATMAN TALES ONCE UPON A CRIME, the second volume of Gillen's DIE and ooh, a new John Pham book, J&K. So much more under the cut — What looks good to YOU?

Super behind this week because we’re doing inventory and the store is closed….. so, fend for yourself on the list under the cut!

It is one of those weeks with a number of fine releases, but not a ton of NEW series starting up. I think my suggestions this week will begin with the next issue of QUESTION: THE DEATHS OF VIC SAGE, the conclusion of SECOND COMING (Mark Russell is here in person NEXT Wednesday at 5p!), and, sure, why not VENOM: THE END (promises, promises). On the book side of the universe, I quite liked GREEN LANTERN: LEGACY for kids, NO LONGER HUMAN by Junji Ito for adults, and why not OVER MY DEAD BODY OGN? Much more under the jump! What looks good to YOU?

Below the jump is Comix Experience’s annual sales report, for those who like those things. The short version is sales were up by 4%, GENDER QUEER was our best selling GN, and DETECTIVE #1000 was our best-selling “periodical” . TONS more detail below — love to hear your thoughts!

The first full week of New Comics for the New Year brings about many new title launches! Just some of them include CLOCK with art by the great Colleen Doran, a new PINK LEMONADE, a new STRANGER THINGS mini and FIREFLY one shot. There's also also a new issue of the loverly TONGUES, and the kick off of DC's new HB/70s artists crossovers: DAPHNE BYRNE. Much more below the jump; what looks good to YOU?

New Comics Day on New Year's Day starts off with a strong Marvel week for launches: Matt Rosenberg's HAWKEYE: FREEFALL, Donny Cates' THOR, and the new "Empire Strikes Back" era STAR WARS. The book side leans more DC: Shannon Hale's DIANA PRINCESS OF THE AMAZON, Greg Rucka's BIRDS OF PREY HUNTRESS (not what it was called originally... and those chains on the new costume seem VERY impractical, right?), and let's round it out with a new NATHAN HALE'S HAZARDOUS TALES: MAJOR IMPOSSIBLE. More below the cut — What looks good to YOU?

Wednesday is Christmas, therefore New Comics Day is THURSDAY this week. It's short, but sweet! Image's CRIMINAL #11 and the return of EAST OF WEST top the bill, but certainly there will also be love for Marvel's DR STRANGE #1, INCOMING #1, or SPIDER-HAM #1, and IDW's KILL LOCK looks interesting too. Fuller details under the cut! What looks good to YOU?

It is seriously the biggest shipment week of periodicals that I've seen in.... well, several years! So big I'm going to forgo the usual Reading of the Number Ones, and just point you to the list itself. You WILL find one or more comics to buy this week under the cut, by crikey! WHAT LOOKS GOOD TO YOU?

The first wave of huge-weeks-right-before-Christmas starts now (my pull list was 40% larger than usual!) with a massive incoming week! The winner of the Intriguing New Launches contest this week goes to DKR: THE GOLDEN CHILD, with RED MOTHER #1 close behind. And why not LUCY CLAIRE: REDEMPTION #1 behind that? On the Book side of the world, the huge winner must be HOUSE OF X / POWERS OF X in HC, but the "huger" winner goes to the treasury format version of SILVER SURFER: BLACK. Don't want a recent Marvel book? The pick up the KABUKI OMNIBUS for some yummy David Mack work. So so so so SO much more below the cut -- what looks good to you?

It is a pretty small week for new releases. Jonathan Luna's 20XX from Image looks like the most interesting of the batch. I also like the look of THE BUTCHER OF PARIS, and for that pop-culture crossover action you've got POWER RANGERS/TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES. On the book front, here's the softcover of Brubaker & Phillips' MY HEROES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN JUNKIES, a neat looking Gary Panter sketchbook WILDEST DREAM, and Pak & Milonogiannis' RONIN ISLAND. Lots more is coming out this week too -- all under the cut — what looks good to YOU?

Possibly the darkest set of first issues I've ever seen -- especially the week before Thanksgiving -- but you play the hand you're dealt, I suppose. The nicest looking debut is probably KILLADELPHIA, but I also know a ton of people crazy-excited for a new SPACE RIDERS, and also for HELLBLAZER #1. On the book side we're doing a bit lighter -- nice looking Auto bio in PLATE TECTONICS, or, mm, "classic action", maybe? with finally-in-print editions of SECTION ZERO or DOC FRANKENSTEIN. There's lots of other things, too, behind the jump -- what looks good to YOU?
