🔥 WHAT'S HOT RIGHT NOW? 🔥

Want to know what people are talking about?

These books are so hot they're already getting reprints on multiple issues, and we're still early in their runs.

**Dorc**
**Invincible Universe: Capes**

That's usually a pretty good sign that readers are finding something special. The good news? You're not hopelessly behind yet. These series are still early enough that you can jump in without needing a treasure map and a second mortgage to track down the first issues.

If you've been looking for something new to read, these are two titles that have been generating serious buzz.

Have you picked up any of them yet? Which one has your attention?

THE EYE COLLECTOR #1

I've read the first couple issues of this story, and trust me when I say this one belongs on your radar.

Creepy. Tense. Unsettling in all the right ways.

If you're a horror fan who likes mysteries that slowly get under your skin, this is the kind of book that grabs you early and refuses to let go. Every issue leaves you wanting answers while somehow making the whole situation even more disturbing.

This new chapter is kicking off with Issue #1, making it the perfect place to jump in.

Some books are easy recommendations.

This is one of them.

📅 FOC: Monday, June 1st

FOC Spotlight – New #1's for June 1st

Disney Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas: All Hail the Pumpkin King #1

Just when you thought Halloween Town couldn't get any stranger...

Jack Skellington is back in an all-new adventure that expands the world of The Nightmare Before Christmas. Whether you're a lifelong fan of the film or someone who starts decorating for Halloween before summer is over (no judgment), this is a great jumping-on point packed with the spooky charm that made the movie a classic.

Perfect for Disney fans, Nightmare collectors, and anyone who believes every season should be spooky season.

Witness Point #1 (of 4)

What if your neighborhood's biggest secret was watching you back?

This chilling new horror mystery follows a woman who begins noticing strange occurrences tied to a seemingly ordinary location known as Witness Point. The deeper she digs, the more unsettling the truth becomes. If you're into slow-burn suspense, creepy small-town secrets, and stories that keep you turning pages long after bedtime, this one should be on your radar.

📅 Final Order Cutoff: Monday, June 1st

FOC Spotlight – June 1st

We've got a couple of absolute monsters on this week's FOC list.

Punisher vs. Spider-Man #1

Frank Castle and Peter Parker are on a collision course, and if history has taught us anything, it's that these two never agree on how justice should be served. If you're a Spider-Man fan, a Punisher fan, or just love seeing Marvel heroes punch their way through moral arguments, this one's worth a look.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #20 – 300th Issue Special

Three hundred issues. Let that sink in.

This oversized anniversary issue celebrates one of comics' most enduring franchises with a massive story that looks at the past, present, and future of the Turtles. Whether you've been reading since the Mirage days or jumped on with the current run, this is a milestone issue collectors and Turtle fans won't want to miss.

📅 Final Order Cutoff: Monday, June 1st

Who's ready??

Poison Ivy is DONE playing nice.

DC just announced Batman: Bad Seeds — a massive Gotham crossover event kicking off this August. One night. One city. Absolute chaos.

Pamela Isley unleashes prehistoric plant horror across Gotham, turning the city into a full-on nightmare while Batman, the Bat-Family, and basically everyone else fights to survive until sunrise. Gotham’s streets trying to murder people feels very on brand, honestly.

The story officially begins with a special Batman: Bad Seeds prelude in Poison Ivy #47 before spreading through Batman, Nightwing, Detective Comics, Catwoman, Harley Quinn, and more across 10 weeks of Gotham chaos.

If you’ve been wanting a big Bat-event with creepy horror vibes, major stakes, and Poison Ivy going full eco-terror queen…this might be the one to watch.

Who’s adding this to the pull list?

Ladies, this one has our name written all over it. Neighborhood Watch #1. 💅

Murder. HOA drama. Fake smiles. Suspicious neighbors. So basically…the exact shows we binge constantly.

And since it’s written AND illustrated by women? Yeah…you can tell.

The tension feels real.
The neighborhood drama feels real.
The “someone on this street is absolutely hiding something” vibe feels VERY real.

If your favorite shows involve suburban secrets, crime, gossip, and messy people, this one deserves a spot on your radar.

We’ve got the first TWO issues of Neighborhood Watch in shop now.

Memorial Day Hours 🇺🇸

Both Nostalgia, Ink and GamePlace will be closed on Memorial Day as we take the day to relax, recharge, and honor those who served.

We’ll be back to our regularly scheduled nerd chaos the following day.

Have a safe holiday weekend, don’t melt at the grill, and maybe finally finish that backlog pile staring at you from the corner of shame.
