RODRIGO\\n
Space Riders #2\\n
Artist: Alexis Ziritt\\n
Writer: Fabian Rangel Jr.\\n
Letters: Ryan Ferrier\\n
After the mind shattering events of Vortex of Madness, the Space Riders find themselves crash-landed on an unknown planet. They encounter an alien warrior tribe, as well as the beautiful and fierce Dona Barbara. Also in this issue, our heroes find themselves in the presence of a Space God. Ride along as Capitan Peligro and his crew escape from the haunted planet!

\\n\\n

Alexis Ziritt\'s (The Package) insane art is both a throwback to classics like Jack Kirby, Fltecher Hanks, and Heavy Metal Magazine, while still having a modern sensibility that showcases his own unique style . Writer Fabian Rangel Jr. (Doc Unknown) manages to tame that craziness and tell a compelling and very human story. Space Riders becomes that rare middle ground that has something for everyone while never compromising.

Join Eisner nominee PHIL HESTER (Green Arrow, The Coffin) and Eisner winner JOHN McCREA (Hitman, The Boys) on their latest expedition to the dark heart of weird comics

Major Spoilers Poll of the Week:\\n
By now, you\\u2019ve probably heard the news that NBC has decided to pass on a second season of Constantine. Fans, and producers, are both hoping the show will land at another network, leading us all to a happily ever after moment.

\\n\\n

But what network?

\\n\\n

With CW running many of the Warner Bros./DC Comics properties, it seems to be the front runner, though SyFy\\u2019s name has been dropped a time or two due to the NBC tie, as well ask the coming Krypton series.
