August 2016 PREVIEWS Pre-Order Picks: MARVEL COMICS, ONI PRESS
EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the third consecutive month where we take a look at the monthly PREVIEWS catalog and highlight the books we feel should be added to your pre-order list. In order to keep the list as short as possible (Just imagine how tough that can be!), we focus on new titles or first volume collections only.
Your local comic shop depends on your pre-orders to help prevent shortages or overstocks. Since business reality makes it impossible for a local comic shop to order some of everything, they need you to tell them what you want to see. Please give it a try.
Pick up a copy of the August PREVIEWS at your local comic shop, or visit the online catalog at http://www.previewsworld.com. Then give your local comic store the list of what you want to pre-order for October 2016. We’ll do our best here to help you with those selections, from a BC Refugees point of view. Not objective, but absolutely subjective.

Enter Mercer, a mystery man who gets Callie's heart beating like crazy. As her behavior changes and their flirting deepens, Mercer reveals he's her heart donor. Only Callie can see, speak to, and touch him - and he's in love with her, a love she feels just as strongly.
A master thief when he died, Mercer offers to teach Callie his criminal ways and how to turn them against her old job and kick off a nationwide crime spree. Hunted by the FBI and popping heart meds to stay alive, Callie will find out that nothing's as scary as two people in love with nothing to lose."
