Happy Wednesday, readers!

We’re happy to announce our next event! Besides In the Name of the Moon, our Sailor Moon art show (opening August 30), on Wednesday, August 27, Hub Comics presents Liz Prince: Tomboy at the Brattle Theatre in Harvard Square. To celebrate the release of her new 254-page Zest Books graphic novel, Liz will talk about her autobiographical “Tomboy,” and Hub Comics will have on hand copies a full week before anyone else! Tickets on sale soon.

Big debuts today include Image’s first Rocket Girl collection (only ten bucks!), and Dark Horse’s next Avatar: The Last Airbender sequel. “Thor: God of Thunder” and “Loki: Agent of Asgard” fans, be sure to check out Original Sins #5.1, a tie-in to Marvel’s current event miniseries, written by Jason Aaron and Al Ewing. If you subscribe to either series, we’ve put a copy in your bag/file/folder.

And a note to readers of “Detective Comics” — our distributor shorted us our copies of issue #33 — sorry! — we’ll get them in a week or two.
