Pizza justice goes global in the next adrenaline-fueled entry in New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti (Superman ’78, Ordained) and Eisner Award-winning artist David Lapham’s (Stray Bullets) striking new vision in the fight against crime! Eyeing a chance to expand into the Japanese market, Big Caligula’s Pizza smells dollar signs. The suits at corporate expect their first international location will be rolling in dough, but Big Caligula’s Tokyo is coming up short on bread. Vandalism, stolen supply shipments, threats against employees…someone in town has taken a hit out on pizza and it’s left the restaurant colder than a day-old slice. Luckily they have Makoto — Big Caligula corporate detective, Eastern Division — on the case. But when Detective Makoto goes missing, Hank suspects foul play. And he’ll do whatever it takes to get to the bottom of things, even if it means burning it all down. 32 Pages • Black & White • On Sale December 2, 2026 • $5.99
ODINN’S EYE TPB
(W) Joshua Dysart (A) Tomás Giorello
Colors: Diego Rodriguez
Cover: Tomás Giorello
The Eisner Award-nominated writer of The Hab, Joshua Dysart (Unknown Soldier), combines his power with Tomás Giorello (Conan the Barbarian), the master illustrator behind Planet Death, to unleash an epic of incredible scope and vision. Solveig, a young farm girl of great promise, is haunted by visions from the god-king Odinn himself. In words she cannot understand, and images too violent for a child to comprehend, Odinn tasks Solveig with a brutal mission: retrieve his eye — the one he famously traded for wisdom — and bring it to him. In the real world, the winter season has not left the land of Solveig’s people for several years. As crops fail and livestock perish, fear and panic grow. In their desperation to appease the gods and free the land of this never-ending winter, the tribe turns to the child whose visions are surely a sign from Odinn. A war party is assembled. Solveig and a band of warriors — including an all-seeing witch — are sent north on a great quest — one which will change all that she knows, all who she has known, and all that she will become. 144 Pages • Full Color • On Sale December 2, 2026 • $19.99
