Synopsis: Shakalla was to become the Warrior-King of the mightiest empire of his world, a realm vaster than any empire in the history of our civilization. He would stand among men like Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, and Shaka Zulu, but he lost his world and his throne. Exiled as a boy, he waged a lifelong war against the wizard who usurped his place, hounding him until a final confrontation saw his enemy flee into a mystic portal. Not to be denied his vengeance, he leapt after him...and landed in Central Park, 2005. That was when things got a little...weird.
Tossed into a strange new world, Shakalla still seeks his archenemy, the wizard known as Daemonn Thornne, but first, can he manage the New York transit? Get ready for a high-octane, fast-paced, outrageous adventure that will make you laugh, give you thrills and keep you on the edge of your seat. 

In this issue: Shakalla's in DA HOUSE! After his arrival in Central Park, and his first encounter with the gang known as the Manhattan Kings, Shakalla starts to learn about this strange place called Manhattan. Meanwhile, Harold Harrington tries getting used to Shakalla! Think how a 6'6", spear-wielding, emperor-to-be, wizard hunter would screw up your day?
And you will not believe who the wizard really is?

Synopsis: The day came that the world as we know it ended, and on that day, Earth itself began to die. No one knows what happened, what caused the devastation that swept away cities, crumbled the nations and shattered the world. All they know is that it has only gotten worse since. Now, 10,000 years later, humanity is dying out. Forced to live in a world literally being torn apart in space and time, hunted by strange creatures that now walk the Earth in the shadows, and enslaved by the living dead, alien wizards and demons, humankind may be facing extinction. One young man just may be the savior of humanity, or else, the bringer of their final doom. His name is Savage and his destiny shall be legend. 

In this issue: Savage and his father come face to face with the mad-god Dragon-King, in the middle of an all-out war between the beast and a tribe of Revenants, the enemy of all humankind! Can one young teenager stand up to an insane, fallen god-creature and a pack of bloodthirsty, undead warriors? 
Plus, what of the enchanted sword dredged from the pits of the earth? Whose hand will wield its power? What new player lurks in the shadows, night black and wrapped in flame? Who will die at the hands of the fallen-god? The ending of this issue will change everything and set in motion the destiny that awaits the young, prophesized savior of humanity.

Synopsis: Somewhere in Asia, aeons ago, stood the city. Even then it was older than any of its millions of residents could remember. Created as a bastion of peace, learning and human dignity, the huge, walled metropolis existed in blissful harmony since the beginning. But now a serpent of corruption slithers in the shadows of this paradise. Now evil has set its sights on the city and its citizens. Stirred by this spreading dark stain, the Goddess wakes. The protective spirit of the city-entwined in everything that is good about the place-she senses the infestation and takes steps to combat it. Xian was a serious and dedicated student one day, living a life of ease and serenity in her beloved city. Then the murders started and evil came to the city for the first time. When the Goddess implored her to take up the mystic green sword and become the champion against corruption, Xian could only assent. Now, she is Jade Fire, and only she can strike against the heart of darkness beating ever louder beneath the silent streets of the city. She's ready to fight to save her home, even if it means battling the devil himself. And it just might!

In this issue: Angered that the evil entity menacing the City has threatened her aged mentor, our heroine begins aggressively tracking down its agents -- not realizing that one such hellish servitor is already stalking her from the night sky on giant leathery wings. Death haunts the city while it celebrates its most joyous festival! Meanwhile, Master Kwan, the enemy's chief agent, finds himself torn between his lust for more dark power and his human loyalties. He makes a fateful choice, but at what cost to his humanity?
