Blood on teeth usually says one of two things. Gum infections with the gum line bleeding up and all over the chompers. Or of a hearty meal, of meat. The kind that is on the tastier side of medium. Closer to rare on burning your steak, the redder and juicer the slab of dead animal. Go with medium-rare to medium when out eating meat at a restaurant. It's usually where the taste is. Go with well done, that's where last weeks' meat comes from.

Deacon McKay has left the NYPD to become the new deputy sheriff in Willow Creek -- a small town in northern California known mainly for its Bigfoot sightings. But after a series of murders turns Willow Creek upside down, Deacon starts to uncover a horrifying secret -- the legend of Bigfoot, something the town uses to bring in the tourist trade, is actually a cover story for a horrible evil.

Don't miss the beginning of the series that's bringing werewolves back with a serious vengeance.

Other comics to eyeball this week

Soulfire expands a little more with Aspen Showcase: Grace by Vince Hernandez and Sana Takeda. As the title suggests, it's not about Aspen, but of Grace. Or as the title would otherwise then suggest, of Grace, and not of Aspen. However it reads, look for it on the shelves, it's ready to wet.

What time is it? Is Zorro on? Rub with shorts of the fox in Tales of Zorro. Edited by Richard Dean Starr with stories from the likes of Max Allen Collins, Peter David and A.C. Crispin, anthology series of the one they translate as fox in Spanish. Do foreign animals speak to each other with accents?

With a name like Locke & Key, it's probably a comic about someone with the name of Locke and a whole lotta doors. From Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez, it's about a dark mansion with a massive fringe combed over its facade and looks to render people walking through its doors. Like going to the carwash without a car.

Exoskeleton related trade of the week

Might be many of you already watching "The Sarah Connor Chronicles" from torrents. For those fans of the Terminator universe, hark back to a massive slab collection of the comics that came before that show, that came after the movies and well before the second sequel with the Terminatrix. The Terminator: Omnibus volume 1 from Dark Horse and looking to snap your knee if you don't put it on your lap right.

Trade of the week

Eddie Edison works two jobs. One is to schlep pizzas about the place while the other is being a Sidekick. There is pain, there is gain, there is much to the funny and sucker punch. Like a swift kick to the groin perhaps? With saucy mustard onions on the side? Yes.

 

One day the insects, creepy crawlies, bugs and arachnids will rise and reclaim the Earth. Until such time, there are people out there looking to gas, wash and douse them in poison. These people are so-called exterminators. Jerry Seinfeld would have you know they're removalists and relocation experts.

Either way, it's a billion to one ratio in their favour, and odds always say house always wins. In the end.

The Exterminators centres on a dysfunctional group of bug killers prowling the barrios and bungalows of Los Angeles - the thinnest point on the shaky borderline between civilization and the violent chaos of nature.

Henry James, the newest exterminator, sees the job as a means to cleanse the sins of his dark past. He has a hard time getting his view across to his careerist girlfriend, sociopathic partner, and the general bunch of freaks he calls co-workers. But what the "bug brothers" of Bug-Bee-Gone Co. don't understand is that human beings may be the true pests - and bugs could be the real exterminators.

Featuring creepy-crawly covers by Philip Bond (Vimanarama), The Exterminators mixes disturbing characters, killer cockroaches and sinister secrets into a unique and unsettling series that branches out from the underbelly of L.A. into the heart of an ancient mystery, a sacred scarab beetle and a weirdly ominous locked box. It's a bug's world. We just live in it.

Ah, bugs, the kind of things you seen running around night and during the day. Be quick, blink and you'll miss them and the chance to squish them good.

Masters of Horror from IDW Publishing runs up on the television series of the same name. A move to make the bowels shiver them fingers down the bowl and drain.

"Intense superspy heroics" in the pages of Sable & Fortune from Marvel Comics as the merc without a skirt returns. And without a headband for sweat's sake!

Mystery, murder and pretty much a cheap tour of Scandinavia as you can get from Marlene, out from the people at Slave Labor Graphics.
