Willow Wilson's Air, about an air hostess with a fear of flying who discovers "the other side of flying" ("You should all buy it because it's awesome," Willow explains, before adding "If you like Miyazaki, if you like the TV show Alias, you'll like this book."), and the long-awaited - not least by its creators - new series of Grant Morrison and Cameron Stewart's superhero series Seaguy. The good news for fans of one of Morrison's weirdest and greatest creations is that the new series, Seaguy 2: Slaves Of Mickey-Eye, is going to be followed immediately by a third series, Seaguy Eternal. Will we discover the truth behind sentient foodstuff Xoo, and the ultimate fate of Chubby Da Choona? Thank Fug! More »

Anyone feeling that Lost writer Brian K. Vaughan's Y: The Last Man wasn't quite science-fictiony enough will no doubt be happy with the book's sixtieth and final issue, released today. Featuring at least two sci-fi staples along with, you know, actually taking place in the future, the epilogue to the whole story didn't sacrifice character for last minute shock or spectacle. And even though it answered a few lingering questions, the issue still managed to provide a fitting conclusion to the popular series. Minor spoilers and thoughts on the end of Yorick's era after the jump. More »
