 Oni Press Presents A Fashion Fable for Modern Times Next summer, Oni Press , the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning comic book and graphic novel publisher, is publishing the original graphic novel Eat Your Heart Out , a modern coming-of-age fashion fairytale by creators and co-writers Terry Blas and Matty Newton, artist Lydia Anslow, and colorist Claudia Aguirre. In this fairy tale-inspired story, Blanca runs away from her home in Idaho to New York City in search of a place to follow her dreams and the adventure begins! But is Blanca running away from her problems, or toward her Happily Ever After?  “To say that I'm excited for the world to see this book is an understatement,” said Terry Blas. “ Eat Your Heart Out includes fashion, costume, baking, drag; so many things that I love, and I wanted everyone to see New York City the way I did. A place filled with people of color and colorful people. I've always been inspired by fairy tales. Cinderella, The Litt...

  BLACK'S MYTH: THE KEY TO HIS HEART #5  Writer: Eric Palicki Artist: Wendell Cavalcanti Publisher: Ahoy Comics Release Date: October 25, 2023 Cover Price: $3.99 The final issue of the only werewolf P.I. book you need! Will Claire embrace her inner demon, or will Strummer get to her in time? Can Beatrice give Strummer the answers she's looking for? And will Carly ever get her Get Out of Jail Free card? Plus, AHOY extra features, including a new chapter of the 5th-anniversary prose serial. Score: ★★★★☆ (4/5) QUICK REVIEW: Sometimes a comic will read like a TV script. It's not necessarily a bad thing as some comic writers also write for television and film. It can come off as a pitch for another medium when done blatantly. I don't believe this is one of those instances but I can't help imagining 'Black's Myth' as a television series. The pacing and framing of each issue could stand as an episode. And it would be just as entertaining as the com...
