From The Battle of the Alamo to the present-day predicament at the Bellweather Sanatorium, Goners #6 finishes the "We All Fall Down" story arc with a frightening flourish, as brother and sister Josiah and Zoe Latimer go up against the Lovecraftian creatures that have plagued their family for generations. From Image Comics, Jacob Semahn and Jorge Corona's Goners #6 hit comic book shelves last week, but if you still haven't picked up the latest issue, we have a set of preview pages teasing the historical horror prevalent in the series, as well as a look at the cover art for the upcoming trade paperback release of volume one, due out on April 29th.

Many stories start at the beginning, but Goners, a new comic book series from Image Comics, begins at the end… the end of a family tragedy that is the beginning of a hellish time for two siblings hunted by supernatural forces ranging from ferocious phantoms to sharp-beaked Ekeks and many more malevolent monsters and demons.
The first four issues of Jacob Semahn and Jorge Corona's new series feature panels packed with interesting characters and monstrous mayhem aplenty, making for a truly memorable horror-comedy experience that shows no signs of slowing down.
Another strong entry to the series, Goners #5, hits shelves next Wednesday, and we've been provided with a set of preview pages to give you a look at the Lovecraftian horrors awaiting Josiah and Zoe Latimer at the Bellweather Sanatorium.

Archie Comics

Time for the main event! In this exciting issue of Sonic the Hedgehog, we finally get to the long awaited fights of the “Sonic the Fighters” story arc.
At the top of the comic, we are treated to a part two of the flashback concerning Sonic’s “rescuing” of Breezie. As it turns out, she had been giving his location away to Robotnik’s various badniks and now Silver Sonic, who is based on Sonic 2‘s Mecha Sonic. Breezie then reveals in a somewhat tragic twist that she was out on the streets without a job or a home. When we snap back to the current time, we see that its her flashback, and she knows that she can still manipulate the Blue Blur.

Sonic the Hedgehog #268: “Champions” Part 1
Writer: Ian Flynn
Artists: Diana Skelly and Terry Austin
Colorist: Gabriel Cassata
Letterer: John Workman
Licensed by Sega
So, Mobius is in pieces due to the Dark Gaia incident and the hunt for the Chaos Emeralds is on. What better than for Sonic, Amy, and Tails to enter a tournament to go find one of the most powerful gems on the planet! Sonic #268 begins a four part tournament arc that has been almost two decades in the making.
The story opens on a bygone battle between Sonic and the old Super Special Sonic Search and Smash Squad (Referred to as the “S6” for now on) of Coconuts, Scratch, Grounder, and a woman named Breezie, who happens to be a double agent for Eggman. Flash forward to the present, where Breezie is in the media business and holding a fighting tournament for a Chaos Emerald,...

With issue #4 of this ambitious horror story hitting shelves today, I caught up with Goners co-creator/writer Jacob Semahn in a Q&A feature to discuss the wide-ranging influences (including John F. Kennedy’s assassination and Stephen King’s works) of his series, the often overlooked creatures lurking within the panels of Goners, what lies ahead for characters and readers alike, and much more. We also have a set of preview pages from Goners #4, teasing the carnage brought upon the Massachusetts town of King’s Bluff by a Skin-Walker and his furry friends.

One Week. Seven Days.
My plans for the next seven days are, if I must say, pretty epic. First off, I’m going to be doing a special column for Destroy The Brain, in which I finally watch and review Halloween III and Halloween H20, neither of which I’ve seen, making me a pretty poor horror movie fan. Along with those reviews, I’ll be talking about a pumpkin beer that I’m looking forward to big time as well. But then, at the end of the week, myself and a friend are going down to Saint Genevieve in southern Missouri for a brewery tour and to take in the very old and beautiful city at a time of year when the veil between past and present is thinnest. I even have have a costume all picked out: I’m going to be an executioner.
Get it?

Goners #1
Written by Jacob Semahn
Art by Jorge Corona
Colored by Gabriel Cassata
Published by Image Comics
After a confusing opening page with an inconsistent color scheme of red, grey, and brown, Goners #1 gathers itself with a nice lead-in hook of two kids (Zoe and Josiah Latimer) watching their parents kill monsters on reality TV. Writer Jacob Semahn builds suspense with a single panel news report of the state’s governor being found dead in the mansion where Zoe and Josiah’s parents, Evelyn and Raleigh Latimer, are fighting monsters. This tiny note of tension is drowned in brightly colored sibling squabbles, sepia-toned flashbacks, and Raleigh Latimer doing his best Bruce Campbell. Jorge Corona’s art may be described as cartoonish with oversized arms, big anime eyes, and non-existent feet. However, even though it’s not “realistic”, it fits the fast moving nature of the story as Zoe and Josiah...

Hexed #1
Story by Michael Alan Nelson Art by Dan Mora Color by Gabriel Cassata Letters by Ed Dukeshire Cover by Emma Rios, Dan Mora Publisher: Boom! Studios
It’s hard to put on finger on what works and doesn’t work in Michael Alan Nelson and Dan Mora’s first issue of their new series Hexed. It is a follow up to Nelson and Emma Rios’ 2009 miniseries of the same name, but with it being a new first issue, one would assume that this would be a good jumping on point. Unfortunately the new Hexed #1 is not very new reader friendly.
The issue begins with a break in at an art museum, but the thieves in Splinter Cell gear run into the series’ protagonist Luci Jenifer Inacio Das Neves, Lucifer for short. She is gifted in the mystic arts and is working to stop magical objects from falling into the wrong hands.

This was the first week in a while where I found myself wondering what the hell I’m supposed to be reviewing. I looked back at all the stuff I’d been doing for the column and realized that there aren’t a lot of books still surviving. On the one hand, I feel like I’ve accomplished something. Other hand, sometimes I wake up at night and I can swear I still smell their innocent blood.
3 Guns #2
Writer: Steven Grant
Artist: Emilio Laiso
Colors: Gabriel Cassata
Publisher: Boom! Studios
Price: $4
Still not quite sure what to make of 3 Guns. I know I really like it, but trying to describe it to the average comic book ready is a task. It’s not because it’s terribly weird, but more because it’s so… basic? It’s an action/crime comic, for sure. But that’s literally it. Kind of nice,...

Hey, fancy seeing you here! Didn’t know you’d check in so soon but, as you can see, I’ve got everything up and running. Just be careful, some of this week’s haul is a little out of the ordinary and unpredictable. So strap in, disengage and read on at your own risk.

Price: $3
I haven’t been paying much attention to Vertigo’s new line-up recently. I did scan a recent preview of their new launches and what I saw didn’t really excite me. Which is why Collider was such a pleasant surprise. I hadn’t seen anything about a sci-fi action comic in said previews, especially not one with such a wild debut. I’m glad that there’s finally something in their current roster that appeals to me personally and I...
