If you are having problems figuring out which books to read first on this sprawling #NewComicBookDay, let me help you out by breaking down what I've read so far into threes!

Finger Guns #5 (Vault)
​By: Justin Richardson, Val Halvorson, Rebecca Nalty, Taylor Esposito

After the epic cliffhanger in book 4, we were left wondering what exactly could be done to pick up the pieces...This book focuses on the aftermath of book 4's tragedy and offers a beautiful conclusion to the story.  There is room for another arc to come from this, but in my interview with Justin Richards on my YT channel a couple of weeks ago, who knows if that will be in the ultimate cards or not.

When all is said and done, this book is easily on my shortlist of best short run books of 2020!

Big Girls #2 (Image)
By: Jason Howard

This book takes the intensity and oddity of book 1 and says "hold my beer."  While we learn more about how Ember is/not accepted in the world or by those around her.  This issue focuses on the aftermath of the organized elimination of metaorganisms and some others on the verge of mutation from book 1 (and before) where we get to see if there is a flipside to the story.  Do these mutated creatures have feelings?  Can they remember their past?  Can they still have emotional connections with normal humans?

Find the answers and so much more in this second amazing offering from Jason Howard!

Dead Day #3 (Aftershock)
By: Ryan Parrott, Evgeniy Bornyakov, Juancho! Charles Pritchett

This book continues to find new ways to surprise me.  Does Jeremy find who was responsible for his murder and ascertain the motive?  What about Brandon, does he get what he's looking for (a girlfriend) when he attends the cult's ritualistic assembly to celebrate dead day? Will there be an aftermath from the attack across the first 2-3 pages of the book?

Things get super wild, and we are left with another massive ciffhanger as everyone begins to return home.  I can't wait for dead day #4!

But wait...There's more!
