New Scott Pilgrim and new Evan Cagle art? Be still my beating heart! Let’s look at those picks and more in another edition of The Pull, as I highlight my buys, recommendations, and curiosities from the week of comics.

Comics of the Week: Scott Pilgrim EX: Dawn of Metal Scott #1

I’m pretty sure I’ve read this comic already — presuming it’s the same one that Bryan Lee O’Malley posted on Instagram around the release of Scott Pilgrim EX — but it doesn’t even matter. What matters is I get to buy a new Scott Pilgrim art and a comic with new art from O’Malley in it. This one’s a hoot, and with the promises of fun extras, of course I’m here for it.

Trade/Graphic Novel of the Week: Deicidium Vol. 1: Returned TP

This is definitely my most anticipated comic from the remainder of 2026, and it has an insanely high floor because Evan Cagle is an art god. Ram V, Aditya Bidikar, and Tom Muller are not bad themselves, and the bonkers, sprawling concept of Deicidium and the scale they’re going for is rather appealing as well. This is going to be killer, and I cannot wait to see what they’ve cooked up in this first volume. I’m guessing it’s something truly special.
