The bug war wages on in this extra-length special that burrows deep into the shadowy world of the Mytes-the insectoid warriors who fight, live, and die in the grass-stained trenches of The Yard. But this time, the story is spun from an even darker thread... through the many eyes of the Spyder Wytches of Wyrdweb-the most mysterious, seductive, and feared denizens of this twisted ecosystem.

Created by comics powerhouses JASON AARON (Thor, TMNT) and MAHMUD ASRAR (Conan the Barbarian, X-Men), and joined by breakout art phenom BALDEMAR RIVAS (DC's Two-Face, Godzilla Vs. Kansas City), BUG WARS: THE SPYDER WYTCH SPECIAL is crawling with more

    Now my friends, this is not a filler my any means, but a visually entertaining (and occasionally shocking) dark trio of stories that are on par with the epic nature of all that we've read thus far. I love how this world continues to expand, and I'm in for the journey through the weeds and beyond. Read Full Review
