THY CUP RUNNETH OVER! Merlyn has finally tipped into full-blown madness: He's sent his Furies on a campaign across the realm to burn everything in sight, and only those who swear fealty to the mad king will be spared. But there is still hope! A bargain between a powerful new ally and the Knights of X may just secure the Siege Perilous and the future of Avalon. Elsewhere, Saturnyne forges an alliance with a former enemy. But trust is a fickle thing. Will these new allegiances bring triumph or ruin for the mutants of Otherworld?
FINAL ISSUE
As quickly as it began it's all over. It's been a fun run but I wonder what will be next for the Captains of Britain?
We Only Find Them When They're Dead Issue 13 BOOM! Studios
The final story arc continues as Honorhim flashes back to the attempt on his life, the catalyst for his current paranoia.
But as he debates what to do about Thierry, and what the revelation of his survival means, he may discover that Newdawn has her own agenda...
As we near the end things get even more complicated for our various crews. This book has been a slow burner but full of big ideas what will keep you coming back for more.

It's Getting Weird Around Here
I've enjoyed previous trips into the scarier side of the ArchieVerse and in September things are going to get weird again when Archie Horror brings us the one-shot anthology book Chilling Adventures Presents... Weirder Mysteries by Frank Tieri, Joanne Starer, Ron Robbins, Federico Sabbatini, Juan Bobillo, Ryan Jampole, Matt Herms and Jack Morelli, wrapped up in a cover by Adam Gorham. Look out for it in September, but maybe keep it to read nearer Halloween.
Riverdale is known to be a hotbed of strange happenings and paranormal activity… always has been and always will be. Take a look as a few extra-special case files are opened that highlight the weird occurrences that happen in the small, quiet town, in a one-shot anthology that's equal parts The X-Files and Black Mirror.
