Except in this world, Al Capone isn't dealing in alcohol, but in magic. With Lick, a drug that grants magical powers to anyone who ingests it, mobsters become wizards, ordinary men become monsters, and darker secrets than Ness can imagine lie at the heart of it all. [rating:4/5] MATTHEW LIVEWIRE #9 Writer: Vita Ayala Artist: Tana Ford Publisher: Valiant Entertainment Cover Price: $3.99 Release Date: August 21, 2019 Wanted fugitive Livewire has been on the run for months from the authorities for shutting down the country’s power in an effort to protect people gifted with powers.

[rating:2.5/5] RODRIGO SUPER FUN SEXY TIMES VOL 1 Writer: Meredith McClaren Artist:Meredith McClaren Publisher: Oni Press Inc. Cover Price: $19.99 Release Date: Sep, 4 2019 Cartoonist Meredith McClaren (Hinges) tells five short, sexy stories featuring superheroes, supervillains, sidekicks, and the people who love them. Showing consent and character-driven erotic relationships, Super Fun Sexy Times answers the age-old question: what happens when the mask comes off? Two sidekicks on opposite sides get stuck in an underground lab together, and find a great way to pass the time. A tactician and superhero discuss their desires, limits, and kinks before their first time, and perhaps get a little too excited in the process. A pair of supervillains explore gender and sex together, while growing closer in their relationship. Lesbian heroes try out a kinky roleplaying scenario, and discover how to make it work for both of them. And an exhausted assassin relaxes after a long day with the kind (yet firm) attentions of his husband. Told with care, sex-positivity, and humor, and featuring a wide variety of sexualities and bodies, Super Fun Sexy Times aims to create an erotic reading experience that lives up to its name [rating: 4.5/5] DISCUSSION Rick and Morty vs. Dungeons & Dragons Writers: Patrick Rothfuss and Jim Zub Artist: Troy LIttle Publisher: Oni Press and IDW Publishing You’ve got to—belch!—roll for initiative, Morty! Two pop culture juggernauts are teaming up and neither multiverse is prepared for what comes next! When Morty sees a cute girl at school playing Dungeons & Dragons, he asks Rick to show him the ropes, only to discover that his grandfather is a veteran gamer. Next thing he knows, the entire family has been pulled into a campaign that escalates from virtual D&D simulations to alternate universes governed by the rules of the game. And as it turns out, Rick isn’t the only one who knows his way around a d20. CLOSE Contact us at [email protected] Call the Major Spoilers Hotline at (785) 727-1939.
