I'm really excited about the Adventure Time comeback. It's been a long time, and I'm curious to see how they've evolved the characters and the world. The quest for the Enchiridion sounds like a classic Adventure Time plot, so I have high hopes. I'm also interested in the backup feature by Derek Ballard. His work on the original series was great, so I'm expecting something special there. I'm definitely adding this to my pull list.
 
The Plague House premise is intriguing. A ghost story that explores a family murder site? That has potential for some serious psychological horror. And with Michael W. Conrad writing and Dave Chisholm on art, it seems like a solid creative team. I'm always looking for new horror comics that offer more than just jump scares, so I'll be checking this one out. The idea of a "contagious" supernatural element is definitely a fresh take.
 
I've been following Out of Alcatraz, and I'm glad to see it continuing. The first issue set up a compelling mystery, and I'm eager to see where Cantwell and Crook take the story. The idea of the escapees facing a "worse kind of hell" outside of Alcatraz is definitely intriguing. The historical setting combined with the supernatural elements makes for a unique combination.
 
I'm a big fan of Justin Jordan's work, so I'm looking forward to the next chapter of Mine Is a Long, Lonesome Grave. The supernatural revenge theme combined with the Appalachian setting creates a really atmospheric and unsettling story. The description of Harley Creed's curse intensifying makes me think things are about to get really dark.
 
I've never been a huge Rick and Morty comic reader, but the Ricklemania storyline sounds pretty entertaining. Rick getting into wrestling and forming his own pickle-based faction? That's definitely in line with the show's humor. It could be a fun, self-contained story.
