When you’re a scout, nothing is more important than being prepared, but how do you prepare for legions of supernatural creatures threatening to beat down your scouting camp’s door? Jo, April, Mal, Molly, and Ripley are about to find out! It’s just supposed to be a normal day at camp with games and a bit of canoeing, but when the girls find themselves separated from the rest of camp they realize there really is a lot more going on and it might be a unhelpful river monster that gives them the key to figuring out what is really going on. Written by Noelle Stevenson and Grace Ellis Art by Brooke A. Allen BOOM! Studios

Ancient hero Sigurd wants his magic sword back from Loki… The All-Mother wants Sigurd back from Midgard… and Loki wants to put a crew together for a caper that’ll rock the nine realms. Somebody’s going to get what they want. Written by Al Ewing Art by Lee Garbett Marvel Comics Can I take a moment here and fangirl the crap out of Jenny Frisson’s covers for this series? They are SO gorgeous, and not just because Loki’s a pretty boy in these books. Her art style is beautiful!
