It's been a little while since we did a non-superhero indie comic, so we're reading about some cute animals living in a cute animal town where everyone knows everyone and they're all happy... until the murders start happening.

It's Patrick Horvath's Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees, and it's simultaneously adorable and gruesome.

We're taking a look at the first volume to see how apt the Dexter comparisons are.

Then, we're starting a new long read with The Ultimates #1, in which our alternative universe Avengers team... is mostly absent.

Next Time: Silver Surfer (2014) #1-5 by Dan Slott & Mike Allred!

We're finally at the end of Alan Moore's Swamp Thing! When we last left him, he was stuck in space on an alien planet, making the best of his situation with whatever plants he could find.

Will he ever make it back to Earth to see Abigail? Or will he just putz around with Adam Strange and Hawkgirl for a while?

We'll find out in issues 57-64!

Next Time: We continue spooky season with "Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees" by Patrick Horvath! Plus we start our next long-read with "The Ultimates #1"
