Every month, there is a wealth of new comics and comics-related product that hits our local comic book shops. While some of us may be able to afford to buy everything we see, the rest of us need to be a little more careful with what we spend our money on - especially in the modern economy and with the price of comics rising seemingly month after month. That's why CraveOnline has the Monthly Comics Guide, to help our readers gauge just where their money might be headed in the coming month. This is it folks, you are down to the wire. If you haven't started your holiday shopping yet, fear not! I have cometh to provide you with everything a comic nerd would like for Christmas. Surprisingly, December is a pretty light month.
The Monthly Guide is meant to be a central hub for all your Crave comics needs. Expect to see constant updates, including preview art for our selections as it becomes available, interviews with creators, reviews, and more.

Victorian Undead #2 (WildStorm)
It's an understatement to say that I was blown away by how much I didn't loathe the debut issue of this series (read our review of Victorian Undead #1). For realz, I fully expected yet another zombie book on the market to cause me eyes to roll back in my head and urinate in my pants our of sheer boredom. Instead, I found that the famous Sherlock Holmes mantra "Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth" is so obviously talking about the undead, and couldn't believe that this pairing hadn't been made before. With that said, I'm pretty pumped for issue #2, on shelves December 23.
