Wise Wizard Games announced the launch of Wacky Wizard Games, a new brand imprint focused on family-friendly, lightweight games. Three games are planned for release in 2024 as part of this new brand imprint: Star Realms Academy, Caution Signs, and Pack the Essentials. If you are interested and attending PAX Unplugged they will have prototypes of Caution Signs and Pack the Essentials. "We are super excited to be adding this new family friendly product line to our catalog. We wanted to maintain the focus of Wise Wizard Games on strategy card and dice games with geeky themes, and have created Wacky Wizard Games as an umbrella for lightweight games with a more whimsical, cute vibe," shared Debbie Moynihan, COO of Wise Wizard Games. Star Realms Academy Forge your own star realms, overloaded with cuteness! A kid friendly but still fun for grown-ups version of the popular Star Realms deckbuilding game for 2 players. A little less math, no reading necessary, but still tons of fun!

S.H.O.O.T. First #2 - Part Two: Giza



The Secular Humanist Occult Obliteration Taskforce heads to Egypt to take on a terrorist group—and their monstrous protector! But this is one battle that S.H.O.O.T. can’t hope to win, and when the dust settles, the team will never be the same—and the identity of the traitor will be revealed!

Original, irreverent, and controversial!

Aclin and Selma are the next “it” team in creator-owned comics!

Star Wars: Dawn of the Jedi - Force War #1 - Part One



The fearsome Rakata have invaded the Tython system, and war rages on every world. With Forcesabers in hand, the Je’daii have aligned themselves with unlikely generals: Daegen Lok, the mad Je’daii, and the stranger, the Force Hound Xesh—one the devil they know, the other the wild card they don’t!

The battle that will decide the future of the Jedi!

John Ostrander and Jan Duursema pull out all the stops!

Itty Bitty Hellboy #4


What comes down must go UP! All the way up to the heavens! That’s right! Things may never be the same for Itty Bitty Hellboy and his pals after Roger tries to make friends with the Baba Yaga! What? Doesn’t she like flowers? Maybe it’s just Roger she finds irritating. Roger may be feeling separation anxiety after this story! Prepare yourself for the fluffiest, cloudiest, heavenliest issue yet!

Highly recommended by Franco’s mom. Aw yeah, man.

ART BALTAZAR & FRANCO take on HELLBOY!

The incredible future of the Star Wars galaxy!
