Dive into a high-stakes, supernatural historical thriller with Dark Blood, written by the award-winning screenwriter Latoya Morgan (The Walking Dead, Parenthood) and featuring the evocative art of Walt Barna. Originally published by BOOM! Studios, this graphic novel is a powerful exploration of trauma, resilience, and the cost of survival in Jim Crow-era America.

This copy is Brand New, making it an essential addition for fans of historical fiction with a sci-fi twist, "prestige" indie comics, and character-driven supernatural dramas.

A Powerful Blend of History and Sci-Fi

The story follows Avery Aldridge, a Black veteran of World War II who is struggling to provide for his family in Alabama. Avery is a man with a secret: he was the subject of strange experiments during the war that left him with incredible, and often uncontrollable, abilities.

  • Tense Historical Setting: Latoya Morgan expertly utilizes the setting to explore the systemic racism and personal struggles of the 1950s South, grounding the supernatural elements in a deeply human reality.

  • Atmospheric Visuals: Walt Barna’s art perfectly captures the era's mood, blending grounded, realistic character designs with surreal and explosive manifestations of Avery's powers.

  • Deeply Personal Narrative: At its core, Dark Blood is a story about a father’s love and the lengths a man will go to protect his family from a world—and a past—that wants to destroy him.

Solid Kids Sandals, Overpriced Like Most Kids Shoes 🌞
Size: 11 Little Kid, Color: Brown, Size: 11 Little Kid, Color: Brown
My son hasn’t worn these yet since it’s December in Indiana and sandals + snow obviously don’t mix. 😂 So this review is based on first impressions rather than long term wear. That said, these seem wider than a lot of typical kids’ sandals, which I REALLY appreciate since we tend to have wider feet in our family. #hobbitfeet The quality feels pretty decent overall. They’re described as lightweight, and while they’re not insanely lightweight, they do have enough weight to feel semi-sturdy and not flimsy or cheap. I like the style and color, and I think they’ll work well for my son once warmer weather hits. My main complaint is the price. At just under $24 at the time of this review, it feels a little high for kids’ sandals and for what these are. I really feel like $20 MAX would make more sense. Kids shoes are almost always priced like adult shoes, even though they clearly use less material, and that’s hard for me to understand and wrap my mind around. Overall, these seem solid for daily wear, I just wish the price was a bit more reasonable and affordable.

Great basic and timeless design
Size: 12 Little Kid, Color: Brown
These sandals are a great find! They’re super easy to get on and off thanks to the Velcro straps, which is a huge win for little ones learning to be more independent. The fit is adjustable and secure, so they stay in place well during all kinds of play. The cork-style footbed is comfortable and gives good support, and the overall design feels sturdy enough to handle everyday wear. They’re lightweight but still durable, and have held up really well so far. They also have a classic, versatile look that goes with just about everything, perfect for summer outfits. Overall, a reliable, comfortable sandal that’s great for active kids. Would definitely buy again!
