SBM Comic Pack New Releases for August 20, 2008 (Misc , Part 1)

Description:

AIR #1
Ladies and gentlemen, there’s been a change in our flight plan. You may
have heard of a group called the Etesian Front — vigilantes dedicated to
taking the skies back from terrorism. Sounds like a noble cause, right? But
there’s more to them than meets the eye. They’re after someone I know.
Someone who is either an average frequent flier — or a terrorist. And he’s
got a secret. Something that will change the way we fly — and the way we
see technology — forever. To find him, we’ve altered course. We’re en
route to a country that doesn’t exist on any maps. Only one person knows
how to get us there: me. My name is Blythe, and I’ll be your stewardess today.
So buckle your seatbelts — this will be the flight of your life.

ANNA MERCURY #3 OF 5
Warren Ellis introduces you to the sultry Anna Mercury in this all-new color
series! Where is Anna Mercury from? Who does she work for? Where is
New Ataraxia? What is going on? It's all here - the reveal of the new
science-fiction stage created by Warren Ellis, who wrote the first graphic
novel to win the prestigious Sidewise Award for alternate-world science-fiction.
A high-octane blend of The Shadow, Tomb Raider, retropunk science fiction
and 21st-century Weird Pulp Action, Anna Mercury is a headlong adventure
serial about a beautiful and mysterious spy-adventurer who is not what she
seems! Anna Mercury will be a series of mini-series, starting with this five-issue
color series that features art by all-new talent Facundo Percio.

BUCKAROO BANZAI: THE PREQUEL #1
Screenwriter Earl Mac Rauch and Director W.D. Richter return to their creation,
Buckaroo Banzai, with a brand new story! "Of Hunan Bondage" is the wild epic
tale that sets up the film, an adventure so secret, so wild, so hair raising, that
it couldn't be told before now! His rock and roll band on the road, no money,
his voice lost, a doppelganger, the overthruster invention without inspiration,
Banzai is on the road to nowheresville! Also, flashback to the origins of Banzai's
musical career, and the Hong Kong Cavaliers, and the oft-rumored about but
never talked about final fate of the Illinois Mongoose! All that, plus the
interweaving plots of the Secret Yak police in China, and what happened to
Peggy Priddy and the insidious Hanoi Xan.

THE HELM #2 OF 4
The Helm, an enchanted artifact of countless legendary heroes, has learned
that its latest Chosen One is a chubby, unemployed fantasy addict - who
lives in his mother's basement. Defying all odds, however, Matt Blurdy
managed both to defeat a bloodthirsty hobgoblin and thwart the Helm's
scheme to have him killed. Now the hero's training begins in earnest:
workouts, retrieval of a magic flaming sword, battles with wraiths, and a
showdown with a sorcerer in mortal combat. But when the media starts
reporting Matt's victories as murders, an old flame reenters the picture,
and true darkness looms on the horizon, even a replica Highlander trench
coat might not be enough to save Matt's hide
