We could have gone with any of our other comic con photos which are all awesome (Thursday, Friday 1, Friday 2, Saturday 1, Saturday 2) but just for Neil, we went with War Machine! Why? Because Neil loves War Machine! Same deal as last month, but this time we’ve added some categories, but with no further delay here’s our staff picks for the month of July.
We here at PAC are all about giving. We give you awesome reviews and interesting features every week, but really felt like we should give something more to the readers. So Kevin and I put our swag together (and even a few things that I bought) to give away. You might have noticed that brand new copy of Super Pro K.O.! sitting pretty in the middle. You may have also noticed that its format resembles that of Scott Pilgrim. You may want to know that it’s really nothing like Scott Pilgrim regardless of what Oni says. But it’s a new book that we’re offering to you for free!
So how do you win this contest?

Coming from Archaia Press’ Black Label is the first issue of Lucid, which was available early at Comic Con. You may remember that Lucid was being co-produced with Zachary Quinto’s company “before the door” which gives the title the possibility of being adapted into other mediums. Well before we can go into that we need to find out how the first issue is, so let’s find out!
The issue begins with Matthew Dee sitting in class fifteen years prior to the main story. He’s ignoring daydreaming in the middle of class and sub sequentially called upon by the teacher. After an answer way outside of his classmates maturity level, he’s sent to the hall to write a report with the same amount of passion.
