Grim Leaper and America’s Got Powers Sell Out, 2nd Printings Inbound

As many readers know, a “fifth Wednesday” is a ‘free” day for books. It allows readers and retailers to pick up any books they may have missed out on earlier throughout the month. In this particular instance, both Grim Leaper and America’s Got Powers, which sold out Wednesday, May 30th.

The debut issue of Grim Leaper, written by Kurtis J. Wiebe (PETER PANZERFAUST, DEBRIS) and Aluisio Santos, follows Lou Collins who is caught in a cyclical curse of violent, gruesome deaths and beginnings in the bodies of strangers. With no clue why, Lou desperately searches for a way to break the curse and cross over peacefully to the other side. Then equally doomed Ella comes along… It’s a love story to die for.

America’s Got Powers, written by Jonathan Ross and Bryan Hitch, follows a generation of super-powered teens battling to be The Hero on the biggest TV event in history but Tommy Watt’s dreams of fame and fortune might be over even if he survives The Trials. Someone is coming and he’s going to destroy the show and everybody in it!

Released by , reprints of both comic books will be available June 27th, the same day as Grim Leaper #2 and America’s Got Power’s #3.

    On the mic with the sickness,
    My mystic characteristic is wrong like havin’ a ho & a mistress,
    Lyrical fitness, rollin’ thru the city district,
    Life… I wish it….
    Wasn’t a b**ch, but I kissed it,
    Once again me & HNIC on the same track,
    With the insane raps, the game collapse, & we have yo brain crack,
    Lyrics are very cerebral,
    I’m a real Don except my last name ain’t Cheadle, Speak 4 my people,
    Hard 2 look @ like needles,
    Been in new jack cities like Mario Van Peebles,
    I gotta white tee,
    A franchise boy, oh I think they like me,
    A lot cats with gats wanna fight me,
    Very true like spike lee,
    Seen colors & beefed with soldier boys like Ice-T
    One Day it’ll make sense like Common & no I.D.
    A lot of bullies get bullied with bullets,
    U never felt pleasure unless u went thru pressure with the coolest,
    Next up is HNIC the head n**ga in charge is the acronym,
    The beats execute & the lyrics is packin’ them,

    HNIC

    Dont cry for peace, evil is just live spelled backwards,
    So as long as you live, evil’s the max curse, my exact words;
    Diss or sublim. its gonna hit u like a magnum,
    They ragged him,
    War crimes at me for how I Baghdad them,
    Girls still be deceptive,
    Like the way Eve bagged Adam,
    Laughin at these cats wit fake lines, they just imaginin,
    Back to lyrical lashings, im stashin cash in fleets,
    Trynna flee the grim reaper; they timid leapers
    But my rhymes off the wall,
    Like paintings durin a 5.4 meter
    You already know what it is,
    This the Bay Area & DMV keepers,
    No chance to compete or defeat us;
    Yall still undeveloped, unearthed like a fetus….

    Yay Area

    Just breathe… in… All that oxygen,
    Lyrical criminals trying to come up but I’m droppin’ them,
    & stay toppin’ them, pick positive options and…
    Spit venomous lyrics & when you hear it I put toxins in. Oh!!!
    Whatever my raps magic, have yo end tragic, means end in a casket,
    When you see my rhyme schemes all over like an acrobatic,
    I’m still at it, & stillmatic, with these rap Ethers, Either…
    Imma spit knowledge like a teacher, Or crack heads like eggs on Easter, So just breathe,…

    HNIC

    Issues, get em off ya chest like bench presses
    From stressed to threats, leavin foes witout guesses
    Battlin to now tradin off verses wit the best and,
    wit Chess moves I address em’, my assault; there’s no finessin
    Just seek & destroy,
    Peep & deploy, i creep and avoid,
    Any task wit minimal gains,
    The Don & The Truth, at the pinnacle of this game..N*gga Breathe…

    What is goin on, are we gonna elect a president base by race or by knowledge? every time I see or read the news there is always some math questions, how many black botes he she got , or how many white votes he she got? What is this, lucky there is no Latino running for president, because them will have black, white and latino fighting for America’s power. what do you think? are we making the right decision with our vote, or we’ll make this a racial presidential competition? or we’ll choose the right candidate to be our president? I thought this was just like hiring some one for a job, we look at their application and resume to see if they qualify for the job, or we make that racial now?

    I’m just wondering, were are gonna end up with this.
    I read this today in the NY news what do you think:

    “We keep talking as if it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter that Obama gets 92 percent of the black vote, because since he only got 35 percent of the white vote, he’s in trouble,” Clyburn said. “Well, Hillary Clinton only got 8 percent of the black vote. . . . It’s almost saying black people don’t matter. The only thing that matters is how white people respond. And that’s what bothered me. I think I matter.”

    who should get it if it were just between those 2?

    BQ: Blake Griffins official nickname is High Griffinition, but which do you like better. High Griffinition, Shake N Blake, or the Grim Leaper?

  6. Inside of him was something deeper
    something more grim than the reaper
    a feeling that he could not describe
    but from within his soul came a vibe
    winter wind released from a place
    where the trees smile without a face
    inside him was something deeper
    something more grim than the reaper
    at school everyone loved to play frog
    and oh this boy was such the leaper
    inside him was something deeper
