First Printing. by Brian Wood & Ryan Kelly. A brand new 12-issue series from the co-creator of the critically acclaimed Demo! We all come from somewhere, and whether it's the big city or a small town, it's part of what makes us who we are. Some people spend their whole life trying to escape, others never want to leave. Each self-contained single issue of Local sees everyday people faced with life-changing choices that will affect not only themselves, but their friends, family, and the community they live in as well. Issue #1 introduces us to Portland, Oregon resident Megan McKeenan as she finds herself in sticky situation she needs to get out of, fast. In that crucial split-second, Megan lives out the possible repercussions of her choice. MATURE THEMES 7x10, 32pgs, B&W (1 of 12)SRP: $2.99 REVIEW BY LONE STAR COMICS GENERAL MANAGER AARON SETTLE: Brian Wood's Demoo is one of my favorite books of all time. I loved the ambitiousness of it, twelve self contained stories that each told the story of the most important day in the lives of twelve very different characters. It was a fresh take on superpowers and unlike anything else on the comic shelves. So when I heard Brian Wood had a new twelve issue series coming from Oni Press I was at first excited, but that slowly turned to apprehension. What if he just did the same thing over again? Would that lessen my love for Demo? It turns out I need not have worried. Local only has a few things in common with Demo and most of them have more to do with quality than story points. Local will be twelve issues, each set in a different city and exploring how environments influence stories. The other cool difference is that this time there is a recurring character, Megan McKeenan. Megan will be in each issue, although not always as the main character. And every issue takes place a year later, so in the course of the series Megan goes from an eighteen year-old over her head to a slightly more mature thirty year old. The first issue is set in Portland, Oregon and follows Megan as she is forced to make a life altering choice. We get to see the multitude of options she has and where each will lead her until she finally makes her choice. Wood's writing is still top notch and Ryan Kelly's art is a perfect match for the story. If you liked Demo, you need to give Local a chance. REVIEW BY LONE STAR COMICS CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGER GREG THOMPSON: Brian Wood returns to the 12 issue/one shot story series that worked so well in Demo. This time around, it's stories about people and their hometowns. This first issue focuses on Megan McKennan, a girl from Portland, OR who has gotten herself into a sticky situation and needs to get out fast. In the split-second she weighs her options, she sees her future unfold. As with Demo, these stories will be extremely personal and give the viewer a voyeuristic view into the lives of Wood's creations. If you are yearning to find a voice who can identify with you, you probably want to give this a shot. Brian Wood is wonderful at touching on everyday emotions. Cover price $2.99.

The iconic, innovative comic book series The Beauty returns to stores with a brand new edition, just in time for the television adaptation being produced by Ryan Murphy and debuting on FX in this Fall! In a culture increasingly obsessed with physical beauty, what if you could be guaranteed a short cut to becoming beautiful? A sexually transmitted disease has started transforming people who catch it, changing their facial features and body types to something more in line with societys perceived ideal. Those inflicted shed fat, regrow hair, get more defined cheekbones overnight. The only catch? You will have slight, persistent fever. But who cares how you feel when you look so good? Folks who pursued this alleged perfection are in for a rude awakening. After an indeterminate time with the disease, it has deadly consequences. Looking good at the outside comes at the cost of your insides, as that fever finally burns you from the inside out. For Detectives Vaughn and Foster, investigating the first mysterious deaths of Beauty victims leads them into a dark world they never expected, full of corrupt politicians, murderous federal agents, and a secret society of crooks and killers. Relive the first spellbinding story arc of The Beauty, as well as a selection of stories that expands the world.
