Happy Thanksgiving everyone! To celebrate the holiday, we have decided to begin our coverage of Jeff Lemire's post-apocalytpic masterpiece, Sweet Tooth from Vertigo Comics. If you have not read the heart-warming, and heart-breaking, story of Gus, now is the time to do so. With only 6 volumes, Sweet Tooth is a must read for any comic lover.

Plus, as an extra special treat, we announce our latest contest... the chance for one lucky listener to win a copy of the first deluxe hard cover edition of Saga, collecting the first three volumes in addtion to supplemental material, signed and personalized by Brian K. Vaughan himself! Listen to the episode for details on how you can be entered into this contest (or simply share and/or retweet our contest announcement on Facebook and/or Twitter). We will announce the winner in three weeks.

Next week we will return to our regular format, including more news and our Top of the Stack segment... but for now, please enjoy this special holiday edition of Under the Comic Covers.

This week, Under the Comic Covers delves into Image Comics' Revival #25 by Tim Seeley and Mike Norton, and bids a very fond adieu to one of our favorite series, Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez's Locke & Key.

Joining us to discuss the final chapter of Locke & Key is our good friend Jason from The Walking Dead'Cast. In addition to these great titles, we answer your mail and as always, go over some comic news items from the previous week.

We are skipping our Top of the Stack segment for the next two weeks, but we will be releasing an episode next week, the Thanksgiving weekend, so look for our next episode where we will be beginning our coverage of Jeff Lemire's gorgeous and haunting, Sweet Tooth.

What? The Walking Dead?? Squeeeeee!!!! Yes, this week, Under the Comic Covers covers the world's most popular zombie show... however, we talk about that weird picture book version of that story by Robert Kirkman, The Walking Dead #134: From Whispers to Screams.

We also go over a new addition to the UtCC stable of titles; Copperhead, by Jay Faerber and Scott Godlewski. Described as Deadwood in space, Copperhead lives up to that description with a fantastic first three issues and a pairing of main characters that will win you over in a heartbeat.

Per usual, we answer your emails and take a peek at the Tops of our Stacks with an Image First, Drifter, by Ivan Brandon and Nic Klein; as well as give an advance review of Graveyard Shift, by Jay Faerber (Copperhead) and Fran Bueno. Some seriously good stuff crammed into this particular pie hole.

This week, Under the Comic Covers dissects two of the more gruesome titles we cover. We begin our meal with Nailbiter #7... a wonderful appetizer with frights, a special guest star, and a pinch of humor to whet your appetite. The main course consists of tortillas, chocolate, and pent-up aggression mixed with fierce fighting skills in this months penultimate issue of Chew: Chicken Tenders... Issue #44.

As is our wont, we answer our fantabulous listener's emails, listen to a voicemail froma familar voice, get a mighty heap of news, and we can't forget the Top of the Stack. This week we discuss Tooth & Claw #1, the latest Image first by Busiek and Dewey... as well as Snapshot, by Andy Diggle and Jock.
