As TF29 heads into the Glasshutte for a final confrontation with the pro-aug forces, two questions remain in Adam Jensen''s mind: what will this mean for the future of augmentation and will the real conspirators ever come to light?

Hybrid fighters merging human and alien technology. Massive cannon emplacements on the Moon and Mars. A planetary defense force with the finest military personnel ever trained. For two decades we’ve known the enemy would return. The nations of Earth have collaborated on a unified defense program designed to defend the planet. Yet nothing could prepare us for the immensity of their new assault, and only the courage and skill of a few brave men and women can hope to bring our world back from the brink of extinction.

As riots ignite across the continent, Titus King incites further hostility by taking his hate speech to the Glasshutte, while in Prague, Jensen learns the real reason behind the demegogue¡¯s affront.

Titus King''s hate-mongering leads to escalating tension around TF29 HQ, leaving the strike force in an uncompromising position. Meanwhile, Jensen discovers a shocking new link to the pro-aug terrorists.

Before he was Ant-Man, Scott Lang was a master thief who wanted to change his ways. But he didn''t expect to change his height! So when Dr. Hank Pym recruits him to wear a super-powered suit that shrinks him down to the size of an insect, he reluctantly realizes his life of breaking-and-entering is far from over. Working with Hank and his daughter, Hope, Scott must plan and execute a takedown of Darren Cross, Hank''s protégé, who has become so power hungry, he''s willing to sell the technology of the suit to the highest bidder. Even if that bigger is an international terrorist organization... © 2016 Marvel. All Rights Reserved.

“Sam e Dean Winchester, ao seu dispor. Nós somos caçadores. Despachantes de espíritos, carrascos dos mortos-vivos e do sobrenatural. Somos temidos por demônios, metamorfos e bichos-papões de todos os tipos e tamanhos. Resumindo: primeiro encontramos os monstros, depois explodimos os desgraçados.”Para os irmãos Winchester, o sobrenatural é muito natural. Sua rotina é diferente da de qualquer outra pessoa: dormem em hotéis baratos de beira de estrada enquanto aguardam a oportunidade de exorcizar um demônio ainda no café da manhã. Lá pela tardinha, se disfarçam de padres, repórteres ou agentes do FBI para investigar desaparecimentos misteriosos em alguma região longínqua dos Estados Unidos. À noite, invadem uma casa abandonada onde uma família inteira foi assassinada. Com sorte, podem encontrar a criatura que cometeu o crime. E, com mais sorte ainda, podem faturar uns beijos das belas moças que quase viraram vítimas de algum fantasma ou bruxa. Para chegar a tanta eficiência, Sam e Dean estudaram cuidadosamente todo o tipo de criatura e seus hábitos. O resultado está neste guia, em que a dupla ensina como diferenciar e classificar cada um dos monstros que combatem.

Following last issue''s explosive revelation, Adam Jensen and TF29''s investigation leads them into the heart of the Glassh¨¹tte; Dresden''s heaving transhuman ghetto, where the augmented struggle daily for basic survival. But with its residents, the media, and even the local police vying against them, it''s going to be far from a clean-cut operation.

“I am Ichabod Crane, born in the year 1747. It seems this is the year 2013 Anno Domini, and I have been given new life—how, I know not; why, I know not. I will discern the truth—if, that is, I can keep my head.” In "Sleepy Hollow," a supernatural twist on Washington Irving''s classic short story, Ichabod Crane has been pulled two-and-a-half centuries through time to find that he and detective Abbie Mills are humanity''s last hope in the war against evil. Passionate, intelligent, and wryly funny, Crane has always used journals to collect thoughts and documents that may prove useful later, and The Secret Journal of Ichabod Crane offers an unprecedented look at the battle also raging inside his fascinating mind. On the pages within, Crane shares new memories of the American Revolution; more amusing reflections on modern-day phenomena, from the Internet to Election Day; and private thoughts about Abbie, Katrina, and others. He also includes hidden case files; secret Freemason puzzles; selections from George Washington''s mysterious Bible; and photos, letters, and drawings he has collected along the way. Filled with detail about past battles and vanquished monsters, as well as clues about those he and Abbie have yet to face, this journal is not just the ultimate repository for fans, but the key to Sleepy Hollow’s future—and the world’s.
