This batch features a new Rick Remender Image launch, the return of Greg Pak's Mech Cadets, a solute to classic tokusatsu action, some dystopian highways, interdimensional travel, and some new Phillipe Druillet reprints.
SACRIFICERS #1
(W) Rick Remender (A) Dave McCaig (A/CA) Max Fiumara
SERIES PREMIERE
Tomorrow is a harmonious paradise thanks to five families who make everything perfect...for the price of one child per household. Now, as that bill comes due, a son expected to give everything for a family that never loved him and an affluent daughter determined to destroy utopia must unite to end one generation's unnaturally protracted reign.
New York Times-bestselling writer RICK REMENDER (LOW, DEADLY CLASS, Uncanny X-Force) joins forces with superstar MAX FIUMARA (Amazing Spider-Man, FOUR EYES, Lucifer) to take you through the dark science fiction world of THE SACRIFICERS! JUN230009
Why this caught my eye:
Remender is sorta 50/50 for me, but I appreciate a good Fiumara project so this will look great regardless of if the story hits or not.
MECH CADETS #1
(W) Greg Pak (CA) Ian Herring (A/CA) Takeshi Miyazawa
Fans of the highly anticipated Netflix series won't want to miss this perfect companion series by highly acclaimed writer Greg Pak (Star Wars: Darth Vader), superstar artist Takeshi Miyazawa (She-Hulk), and colorist Ian Herring (Spider-Man / Deadpool).
General Park-head of Sky Corps Academy-must assemble a team of heroes to protect humankind from alien invasions, and Stanford Yu, Maya Sanchez, Frank Olivetti, and Park's own daughter Olivia may have been pulled into the role by fate... as they are Earth's best hope.
But there is more to their relationships with the symbiotic, sentient giant Robos they pilot... and the alien threat of The Sharg is far more epic and widespread than any could imagine!
While Mech Cadets makes a fresh debut for new readers and viewers, long-time fans can delight in having more adventures after the long awaited collection of Mech Cadets Book One!

Why this caught my eye:
Super glad to see a new run of the series, I've been a long time fan of Miyazawa's work so anything that gets them more of a spotlight is always great.

GREETINGS FROM THE MAGLEV CHAP 01 (OF 3)
(W) Adam Cahoon (A) Mark Espinosa
Gasoline is a thing of the past. Once it was revealed that the government had been withholding how desperately depleted our resources were, society seemed to dismantle overnight. In an effort to keep our country moving forward, our nation's corporations united and created "The Maglev." Using revolutionary technology, The Maglev is a massive super highway that utilizes magnetic roadways and is fueled by solar power. Unfortunately, the only ones capable of using it are those who can afford to and those who hijack their way in. The rich and the wild. But, who cares about all of that? This is a story about good old fashion revenge!
