FOC today! ODIN serves up some psychedelic Norse god Neo-Nazi comeuppance. Bennett, Tynion, Cadonici, Bellaire, and Napolitano are a dream team: it's mean, and strange, and horrible in the best possible way. Highly recommended!! @readtinyonion.bsky.social @imagecomics.com

Patrick Horvath@patrickhorvath· Apr 13

I was lucky enough to get an early peek at If Destruction Be Our Lot from @ashcanpress.com FOC is tomorrow, and I highly recommend putting it on your list. It's hilarious, and sad, and extremely poignant. As it turns out, a bit of post-apocalyptic robo-faith in humanity is exactly what we need

Cover for issue 1 of If Destruction Be Our Lot from Matthew and Mark Rosenberg, Andy MacDonald, Francesco Segala, and Hassan Otsman-Elhaou

I'm not saying that insisting the rich give back to society or face mortal combat is the right way to fix our problems. I'm just saying that it's an amusing one. FREE FOR ALL is out today, and offers a glimpse of a brighter future during these increasingly horrific times ☀️ @oni-press.bsky.social
