Oni Press has released previews of Invader Zim #2, Rick and Morty #5, Hellbreak #6, and Princess Ugg Volume 2, all of which arrive in comic shops on Wednesday, August 19th.

Official previews:

Princess Ugg V2
Writer: Ted Naifeh
Artist: Ted Naifeh with Warren Wucinich

Despite having improved in her studies, princess Ülga still doesn’t feel any closer to being a true princess like the others, and she still hasn’t gotten a handle on diplomacy. But when the other princesses are targeted –first by bandits, and then by political figures–Ülga will have to shed her princess skin and become the “bonny wee berserker” of her people, or else the princesses are doomed!

What people are saying:
“A beautifully written, drawn, and colored tale about friendship and self-discovery.” — Geek Sushi”It has that special take that really makes a reader love the characters.” –Fantasy Book Critic

Hellbreak #6
Writer: Cullen Bunn
Artist: Brian Churilla with Dave Stewart

In their most recent jaunt into Hell, Orpheus Team lost one of their own. Now, Jenner struggles with reconciling the death of a good man for the life of someone cold and cruel. He strikes out on a mission of his own, not to invade Hell, but to bring Hell down on someone who doesn’t deserve to live!

What people are saying:
“Bottom line, Hellbreak is a fun and well-paced comic that’s doing something truly original; strongly recommended.” — All-Comic”This universe, also seems to have so many avenues, it can go down, with even more interesting possibilities.” — Graphic Policy

Rick and Morty #5
Writer: Zac Gorman
Artist: CJ Cannon, Marc Ellerby with Ryan Hill

Rick and Morty team up to save a summer camp from an evil real estate developer in this cameo-packed homage to cheesy 1980’s camp comedies, “Mortballs!” Unfortunately for Morty, his idyllic summertime adventure begins to unravel when reality itself starts coming apart at the seams!

Invader Zim #2
Writer: Zac Gorman
Artist: CJ Cannon, Marc Ellerby with Ryan Hill

Dib knows ZIM’s sudden disappearance from Earth can only mean bad news for the human race. Can Dib stop him before Earth is just another alien-infested spaceside attraction like the universe’s biggest doughnut?
