Dive into a brutal, high-stakes superhero noir with Absolution #1. Written by Peter Milligan (X-Statix, Enigma) and featuring the visceral, masterfully shadowed art of Mike Deodato Jr. (The Amazing Spider-Man, The Resistance), this AWA Upshot premiere issue introduces a world where justice is a televised bloodsport.

This item is a Brand New first printing of Cover A, perfect for fans of The Boys, Running Man, and gritty, subversive superhero storytelling.

Justice is Live. No Delays. No Mercy.

  • The Concept: In a near-future Detroit, the police force has been privatized and transformed into a reality TV sensation. "Heros" aren't just law enforcement—they are influencers whose every move is voted on by a bloodthirsty public.

  • The Protagonist: Nina Ryan is the top-rated assassin in the program, but she’s starting to lose her mind. To win her "Absolution" and retire with her soul intact, she must kill her way through a gauntlet of the city's most dangerous criminals, all while the cameras are rolling.

  • Masterful Art: Mike Deodato Jr. utilizes his signature cinematic style, blending heavy blacks and intricate detail to create an oppressive, neon-noir atmosphere that feels both futuristic and decaying.

  • A Sharply Satirical Edge: Peter Milligan crafts a biting critique of fame, social media validation, and the commodification of violence.

Best Guide Ever!
Format: Hardcover
Comic Book Guy's book of pop culture is a hilarious read. Get in the know with Film, sci-fi, gaming, and of course, comics. Read all about a typical day in the life of comic book guy and learn his all time favorite quotes. Take a look at how to run your own comic book shop. Look at CBG places to be such as gaming tournaments, parent's basement, and baseball card convention. Learn the 15 types of moviegoers. A roll-on-the-floor-laughing book for not only for Simpson's fans but comic book fans as well. I highly, highly recommend it.

Absolutely thrilling and entertaining! Never wanted to put this book down 🫶🏻
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I’m not gonna lie, I saw this was from Jennifer Lynn Barnes, read the description, and I was immediately hooked. Search and rescue dogs? Check. Family secrets? Check. A thrilling read? Check, check, and check. I absolutely loved every minute of this book, but considering that Jennifer Lynn Barnes also wrote The Inheritance Games, I shouldn’t have been surprised. So, plot, characters, and writing. For one, with the plot, I saw a lot of reviews complaining about the open ending. I didn’t find it that open in my opinion. I think it left just enough to let you know that people’s stories don’t end just because an event does. It’s more realistic that way and I seriously don’t understand why people get so mad about it. Besides that complaint from other people (not from me), every bit of the plot was exciting in this book. As far as the characters go, if you love love love Jameson from The Inheritance Games, you’ll absolutely adore Jude. Same character type and everything. Kira was obviously very reserved and different as a person because of her trauma, but I liked her depth. I wish we would’ve gotten a little more backstory about what happened to her in the woods and why it happened, but that’s okay. And the dogs? Probably the best characters in the whole book. Lastly, with the writing, if you liked any of Jennifer Lynn Barnes’ previous books, you’ll love this one. I seriously enjoyed this book so much. Overall, this was a book that I couldn’t put down and literally kept me on my toes. One hundred percent worth it to read (unless you don’t like somewhat open endings). Definitely a top read for this year. Favorite quote: “The things that haunt us, they make us human.”

This was a lovely story!!
Format: Kindle
I really enjoyed The Lovely and the Lost, all the characters were really vibrant and unique. Kira was found lost in the woods when she was a little girl. No one knew how long she had been on her own in the woods. Cady Bennett, the woman who had found her, adopted Kira and raised her with Jude, her son. Together Jude, Kira, and Free (their closest friend) train with their dogs to become search and rescuers. Now teenagers, they go on their first mission. It is hardest on Kira, who sees parallels between herself and the missing girl. Secrets start popping up and exploding, things are getting dangerous, and Kira is more determined than ever to find the lost child and bring her home. The story was heartwarming, adventurous, and had many laugh out loud moments. The end left a hint of an mystery uncovered, so a sequel would be greatly appreciated! Well done!

Feels incomplete... slight ranting
Format: Kindle
I liked the story. I liked the characters, they were easy to get to know and understand but this book definitely felt very “raised by wolves”. I made me really miss Bryn and it doesn’t feel finished. I’ve only read RBW and L&L by Jennifer, but both left me with a feel of the books being incomplete. I’m just left wanting more, and feeling slightly unsatisfied. I think her endings are a little rushed, I need a bit more closure. I want more answers. I don’t need everything wrapped up in a little bow, but if the author doesn’t plan on writing any more books then for the love of god please complete the ending and stop making the readers want more. Once again, a good book just frustrating.
