The second 112 page, full color, science fiction and fantasy, monthly comics anthology edited by Brandon Graham has arrived, right on schedule!  This issue concludes the stories by Emma Rios and Ludroe that began in the premiere issue, and kicks off a new three-parter by Simon Roy, "Habitat."  Plus five pages of mind-bending art by Will Kirkby and more!

We just discovered that we still have a few copies of this issue.  This issue is particularly notable for the amazing 18-page story by Michael DeForge, "Mostly Saturn," but, in addition there are a couple of amazing double-page spreads by Ben Sears, and the 41-page conclusion to Simon Roy's epic, "Habitat."  Nice!

We had thought that Ex.Mag #3 was the end of the series... but we thought wrong!  Ex.Mag #4 has arrived on our doorstep, and it's a doozy!  Keeping with its theme of MECHA, this issue is GIANT-SIZE – running a full 300 pages.  Printed (in Europe) solely in a duotone palette of blue and red, on high quality, heavy, cream-colored newsprint, it also features a (not shown) glossy wraparound dustjacket and fold-out, full color poster, making for an overall package that is an æsthetic delight.  And that's before we even get to the comics themselves!  Page after page of beautifully drawn and action packed comics await.

Featuring comics from:  Aseyn, Ayako Ozaki, Beto Irigoyen, Casey Nowak, Emil Friis Ernst, Inkee Wang, Luca Negri, Sebastien Sunstrum, Simon Roy & Tatsumi

Cover and Poster illustrations by: Mony Pich, Fu Yukuda, Jan Buragay, Mathilde Kitteh & Huahua Zhu
