Black Friday Chopping List: Comics

Published

on

Black Friday is nigh upon us. A time where American’s trample one another just to get their hands on whatever piece of consumer electronic trash they’ve been told they want. So instead of trampling your fellow man the day after you’re supposed to be thankful for him, why not take off your pants, curl up in the warm indoors, grab some Turkey leftovers and order these comics to your doorstep, or inbox. Unless you want a separated disc in your back from elbowing a 90 year old women in the teeth for a blu ray player, because trust me if you head out there tomorrow, you will elbow that old woman.

Alien – The Archive

Titan books has amassed one of the most impressive collections of Alien lore I’ve ever seen. Inside this book you’ll find pages of history from the landmark franchise.

Giger, and a whole host of behind the scenes photos from the quadrilogy. If you’re a fan of these films, you owe it yourself to pick up this tome. It’ll make you the envy of all your friends.

The “Batman: Death Of The Family” Gift Set

About a year ago, the superstar team of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo finished their biggest story in “Batman” yet, the return of the Joker. See, since the Joker had been gone for about a year in DC’s New 52 canon. He was last seen cutting off his own face in a effort to show Bruce something. That beneath Joker’s menacing grin… is his grin. Snyder understands the horror genre, and playfully engages in some genre conventions to really defy your expectations. The mask and the face removal may seem like a cheap gimmick to increase sales, but the reason for the face is so compelling and off putting on the page. You’ll really understand a different side of Joker when you see the husk of rotting flesh hanging from his face in the final chapter. Get in on the joke, and don’t be the punchline, buy this gift set and forever be better for it.

Nailbiter Volume 1: There Will Be Blood

As far as modern horror comics go, Nailbiter is beyond phenomenal. It’s a smart blend of police procedural and a murky dare I say it, supernatural premise. Buckaroo, Oregon has been home to some of the world’s most violent and notorious serial killers, what makes them kill? Is it nature or is it nurture that creates a killer? And what secrets does the city hold? The story is pulse pounding and contains some of the best dramatic turns I’ve ever experienced in a comic. The end of this first volume will blow you away.

An ongoing horror anthology series from BOOM! Studios, Hello Darkness is back this summer with Issue #23, and BOOM! has provided Bloody Disgusting with an exclusive sneak peek.

The temperature rises and so does the body count, as the horror anthology series returns for another round of summer slashing in Hello Darkness #23, releasing July 22, 2026.

In “Sunday Pt. II,” Ryan North and Giada Belviso send a Bride of Christ over the deep end into madness.

Then, Rich Douek and Stevan Subic lead you down a bloody path to the old west, where a brash young gunfighter seeks a showdown with “The Man Who Outdrew Death.”

Sink into the cool, briny depths of Kelly Williams’s “Old Wounds” when a grizzled light housekeeper hears the call of the sea one final time.

And finally, serve up a preview platter of erotic thriller “Gastronomique,” as a royal spy, Lady Charlotte, embarks on a cat-and-mouse hunt for the deadly cannibal Tarrare, from Marguerite Bennett and Helena Masellis.

Beat the heat with an all-new pool of fresh nightmares and dive right into horror’s deep end!
