Welcome to this week's Comic Book Releases. In this article we're going to cover genre comics that have been released this week. You may notice that, for the most part, it doesn't include superhero comics. We've decided to focus this article series on the comics that don't get as much notice as their bigger brothers and sisters from Marvel and DC. We'll try to provide to provide as much intel as time allows for these comics and link to their previews page.
You'll stilll see Marvel (ugh!) and DC Comics appear in this space from time to time. As long as they have an element of horror, science fiction, noir or anything in between. Like it or not, Batman is a horror comic. And Captain America is not. So, if you're looking for a bit more flavour in your comic book diet then by all means read on!
