HANK HOWARD PIZZA DETECTIVE THE DEEP CUT #1 (ONE SHOT) CVR G INC 1:20 PIZZA BY JAE LEE VAR FOC November 2, 2026

(W) Robert Venditti (A) David Lapham (CA) Jae Lee Pizza justice goes global in the next adrenaline-fueled entry in New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti (SUPERMAN ‘78, ORDAINED) and Eisner Award-winning artists David Lapham’s (STRAY BULLETS) striking new vision in the fight against crime! Eyeing a chance to expand into the Japanese market, Big Caligula’s smells dollar signs. The suits at corporate expect their first international location will be rolling in dough, but Big Caligula’s Tokyo is coming up short on bread. Vandalism, stolen supply shipments, threats against employees…someone in town has taken a hit out on pizza and it’s left the shop colder than a day-old slice. Lucky they have Makoto, Big Caligula corporate detective eastern division on the case, personally trained by Hank Howard himself. But when Detective Makoto goes missing, Hank suspects foul play. And he'll do whatever it takes to get to the bottom of things, even if it means burning it all down.

PRE-ORDER ALLOCATION NOTICE: This is a pre-order and is subject to allocation. Allocation means the publisher or distributor may ship retailers fewer copies than were ordered when demand is higher than supply or the print run. Allocation is an industry-standard practice across comics and collectibles distribution and is outside of our control. If our allocation comes in short and we cannot fill your order, you will be notified and refunded in full to your original payment method.

INCENTIVE COVER ALLOCATION RISK: Incentive (ratio) covers are only made available to retailers based on how many standard copies they order (for example, 1 copy per 25 ordered), and distributors frequently cut or cancel them after final order cutoff. This makes incentive and other high-demand pre-orders the most likely items to be shorted. To improve your odds of securing a copy, we recommend pre-ordering incentive and high-demand items from several vendors.
