Regular Show Skips #1 – The Regular Show comic gets its first mini series from BOOM! Studios. Skips, the enigmatic yeti groundskeeper, is the focus of this new series, as we finally get to see the world from his point of view. As a reward for all the good work they’ve done, Pops takes the team on a mini-vacation. But for Skips, this vacation is going to be anything but restful. Fans of Regular Show and big, muscle-bound yeti will want to check this issue out.

Plants Vs Zombies Lawnmageddon HC – Dark Horse collects the digital comics into one nifty hardcover! Zombies are invading Nate Timely’s quiet town, and he’s determined to stop them. With the help of Patrice, her confusing-yet-brilliant inventor uncle Crazy Dave, and the plants Dave has cultivated and planted around town, Nate will help fend off the zombie invasion—after a lemonade and cookie break! This very funny book brings the award-winning video game to comics readers in this original adventure. If you liked the video game, or just very silly stories, pick this book up.
