paranoid gardens by gerard way, shaun simon, and chris weston. my first concert when i was 14 was seeing gerard way. since then, ive gotten into comics, and looked out for his stuff. i’ve always appreciated his eye for the absurd, while keeping his stories grounded in people. this #1 has potential

3. the new gods #5 by ram v and evan cagle, with guest art by andrew maclean

2. peepee poopoo by caroline cash! i love all things silver sprocket and have been itching to get my hands on one of these since all the eisner buzz last year. peepee poopoo #1 (not the first issue) is full of whimsy, humorous takes on being gay and young, and super expressive cartooning
