Paper: White

Variant Edition.

Label #4645033011

Variant Marvel Hip-Hop cover by Alitha Martinez. Written by Roxane Gay, Yona Harvey and Ta-Nehisi Coates. Art by Alitha Martinez and Afua Richardson. 'YOU DESERVED SO MUCH MORE, LITTLE FLOWER. YOU DESERVED A WAKANDA THAT CHERISHED YOU.' Writer ROXANE GAY (Bad Feminst, Hunger) spins a Wakandan love story - its tenderness matched only by its brutality. You know them now as The Midnight Angels, but in this story they are just Ayo and Aneka, young women recruited to become Dora Milaje, an elite task force trained to protect the crown at all costs. What happens when your nation needs your hearts and minds, but you already gave them to each other? Illustrated by industry veteran ALITHA E. MARTINEZ (Iron Man, Black Panther). And in a special backup story, acclaimed poet YONA HARVEY (Hemming the Water) explores the true origins of The People's mysterious leader Zenzi. Black Panther thinks he knows who Zenzi is and how she got her powers, but he only knows part of the story… Illustrated by rising star AFUA RICHARDSON (Genius). 36 pages, full color. Rated T Cover price $4.99.

Cover by Joe Kubert. Stories and art by Joe Kubert, Mort Meskin and Norman Maurer. Comics legend Joe Kubert won fans early in his career with his tales of Tor, a caveman struggling for survival in a world where humans co-exist with dinosaurs. Tor and his prehistoric world struggle to survive a devastating drought. When the Lizard Men attack Tor's badly outnumbered tribe, he has one chance to prevent them all from becoming slaves. Tor helps a tribe battle a wolf-pack, in a story featuring a terrific opening two-page spread by Kubert. Co-creators Joe Kubert and Norman Maurer put themselves into the comic to discuss "The Human Element" in Tor. Plus full-page dinosaur illustrations by Kubert. And an ad for the "Scholart Institute," one of Kubert's first attempts at comics art instruction, preceding the Joe Kubert School by two decades. Red Death!; Last Chance!; Great Wolf!; The Sea; History of Prehistoric Animals: Struthiomimus, Pachycephalosaurus; Danny Dreams. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
