Once upon a time, Jonathan Lord was the brightest superstar in that galaxy of stars, Hollywood. In over 100 films he portrayed every role imaginable, proving himself a master of adventure, romance and villainy. Surely no man or woman alive could dim this shining star of the silver screen. Certainly he was to be a star forever! But forever is a long time and Hollywood is a fickle town full of people with short memories, and as time claimed its toll on Jonathan Lord, his popularity waned. Until, one day, he retired to his palatial mansion above Sunset Boulevard, turning bitter while thirty years passed with nothing but memories and faded glory from his old films for companionship. And then comes the eldritch energy of the magical black bird, granting Jonathan Lord the power to reclaim his lost youth...and recreate in real life any role he ever played on film! Thus is the old actor's dream fulfilled as vitality is restored, along with all of his old film adventures of action, romance and evil! Bit this time the consequences are for real. There are no stuntmen for the dangerous parts and no one to yell "Cut!" when the going gets tough! Silverblade, starring Jonathan Lord. Yesterday he only starred in film fantasies. Today, he lives them!

Castling - Written by Nicola Cuti. Art and Cover by Tom Mandrake.
In the old days, Polaris Spanner raised top-grade jellies on an out-of-the-way rock called Proxie. He was living pretty well off a rich yield of protoplazz, but there was nothing really special you could say about Spanner when you came right down to it -- barring that trick he had of "Castling," trading places with a like-minded Castler, anywhere in the galaxy, on an instant's notice. Then, one day, all the media in the galaxy called him Enemy Number One, and all of a sudden, there was nowhere he could hide. Bounty hunters were hot on his trail, but they were mostly chuckle-headed goofs, the galaxy's dregs. Their leader, though, Marcus Baka -- he strode ahead of the pack, and he was a man worth fearing. Fugitives used to say, "If there's a price on your head, pray it isn't high enough to interest Baka." But when it came to Spanner, Baka didn't care about money. He wanted Spanner, wanted to nail him, plain and simple as that. Every day, Spanner's chances were getting grimmer. Through it all, the desperate, fugitive hours, Spanner had only one question: What'd he do? Nicola Cuti and Tom Mandrake have created an absorbing Space Opera populated by a large, delightful cast of heroes and villains!

WRITTEN BY DEVIN GRAYSON; ART AND COVER BY YVEL GUICHET AND AARON SOWD
Your parents are dead. Your little sister thinks she's Lobo. Child Protective Services wants to talk to you. Three of your best friends have superpowers they hate. And you've just inherited a Winnebago. What do you do? Road trip! THE TITANS' Devin Grayson joins the art team of Yvel Guichet and Aaron Sowd to introduce the Weinbergs in RELATIVE HEROES, a 6-issue miniseries filled with enough action, humor and superhuman drama to attract both diehard super-hero buffs and readers newer to comics.
After the death of their parents, the Weinbergs decide they've "had an origin," and pile into the late Mr. Weinberg's Winnebago to traverse the DCU in search of Superman their grail of steel. Led by the only powerless sibling, Joel (a.k.a. Houston), a teenager who learned everything he knows about being a team leader from comic books, the Weinbergs are a family whose powers reflect their personalities: 11-year-old Aviva (Temper), whose electric powers make her tantrums deadlier than most; adopted brothers Tyson (Blindside), an African American, treated like an invisible man, who possesses the power to disappear, and Cameron (Omni), so outgoing he's unaware that he mimics the powers of the super-beings near him. They're joined on their road trip by Temper's baby-sitter, Damara (Allure), who is well liked by everyone...especially boys. But is she loved for who she is or because of her "charm spell?" Their adventures pit them against the police, the Department of Extranormal Operations, Child Protective Services, super-villains, and test their own limitations as a family and as human beings. The very powers they possess bring them into direct confrontation with the worst aspects of adolescence ? the capacity to inflict harm, a heightened sense of social invisibility, uncontrollable, uncomfortable feelings around members of the opposite sex, and the heady feeling that you can do anything at all as long as your friends are there with you.
