AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #636 by Several People. “Oh my god, they killed Spidey! You ba$!@rds!” Those Kraven Kids are mean… AVENGERS: CHILDRENS CRUSADE #1 of 9 by Alan Heinberg and Jim Cheung. Reintroducing the Young Avengers in a maxi-series by their creators. First up: The quest to find the Scarlet Witch! Gotta look! BATMAN AND ROBIN #13 by Grant Morrison and Frazer Irving. “Thomas Wayne” is back from the dead. But will he speak Russian and have a bionic arm? BATMAN: ODYSSEY #1 of 6 written and drawn by Neal Adams. No one has ever drawn Batman better than Neal Adams. It is required that you have this. Highly recommended. BLACKEST NIGHT: GREEN LANTERN HC by Geoff Johns and Several Artistes. The tasty details and backstories on “Blackest Night” revealed in GL#43-52. Plus, the scoop on Black Hand, the DCU’s own version of Dexter! BLACKEST NIGHT HC by Geoff Johns and Ivan Reis. Collecting all nine issues of the heart-rippingest GL epic ever! Recommended. THE BOYS #44 by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson. Did you know there’s a religious festival for super-heroes? Truth. Come for the story. Stay for the protests over the cover. Recommended. Not for kids. BPRD, VOL. 13: 1947 SC by Mike Mignola, Joshua Dysart, Gabrial Ba and Fabio Moon. Collecting all five issues of this sequel to BPRD:1946. Which makes perfect sense, really… BRIGHTEST DAY #5 by Geoff Johns and Associates. The resurrected heroes get an inkling of why they’re alive again and it may not be on merit. Recommended. BRIGHTEST DAY: THE ATOM SPECIAL #1 by Jeff Lemire and Mahmud Asrar. Relaunching the Atom, the real one, right here! CASANOVA #1 by Matt Fraction, Gabriel Ba and Fabio Moon. The return of the hit spy-fi indy, courtesy of Marvel and its all-star creators! Recommended. ELECTRIC ANT #4 of 5 by David Mack and Pascal Alixe. This trippy Philip K. Dick story about a robot cracking open his own programming has lessons for all of us. Deep ones. Recommended. FANTASTIC FOUR ANNUAL #32 by Joe Ahearne and Bryan Hitch. Reed, Ben and Sue go on a “fantastic voyage” inside the body of the Human Torch. If he flames on he kills them. In the Baxter Building they call this “Monday.” HELLBOY: THE STORM #1 of 3 by Mike Mignola and Duncan Fegredo. Ancient corpses walking out of their graves in suits of armor. Hellboy-time! Beautiful art. IRREDEEMABLE #15 by Mark Waid and Diego Barreto. The Paradigm takes it to the Plutonian one more time. What could go wrong? IZOMBIE #3 by Chris Roberson and Michael Allred. Gwen’s off to solve the murder of the guy whose brain she ate. Because she’s a lady. Fun, mature readers stuff. MARVELMAN FAMILY’S FINEST #1 of 6 written and drawn by Mick Anglo. Reprinting the classic British Captain Marvel swipe that became one of the best and most litigated characters ever after Alan Moore re-imagined him in the eighties. This is the source material Moore worked from before he came out against that sort of thing. PLAYWRIGHT HC by Eddie Campbell and Daren White. “A dark comedy about a celibate middle-aged man.” Comedy?!? SCALPED #39 by Jason Aaron and R.M. Guera. So what do you do about an unplanned pregnancy on the Rez when you and the daddy are both half-crazed junkies? This one’s gonna generate some letters. Highly recommended. Not for kids. SCARLET #1 by Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev. A new creator-owned series being published by Marvel! For the kick-butt, freedom-fighter babe in your life! SHADOWLAND #1 of 5 by Andy Diggle and Billy Tan. The battle for Daredevil’s soul begins here! Also there’s a totally insane fight with Bullseye. Again. THE STAND: HARDCASES #2 of 5 by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and Mike Perkins. The Vegas camp and the Boulder camp begin to take shape. Hijinks ensue. Recommended. STEVE ROGERS: SUPER-SOLDIER #1 of 4 by Ed Brubaker and Dale Eaglesham. Someone’s screwing with Steve America’s mind. They ought not to do that. WALKING DEAD #74 by Robert Kirkman and Charles Adlard. The zombie plague survivors find time to go to church. (Insert incredibly offensive joke here.) WOLFSKIN: HUNDREDTH DREAM #3 of 6 by Warren Ellis, Mike Wolfer and Gianluca Pagliarani. A monster and a bunch of demon warriors decide to attack Wolfskin and his pals, unaware of whose name is on the cover. WOLVERINE: WEAPON X, VOL. 2: INSANE IN THE BRAIN SC by Jason Aaron and Yanick Paquette. Wolverine pulls a MacMurphy in a asylum against a head shrink who’s also a brain-yanking nut! Claw-popping good times! Not for younger kids! X-MEN #1 by Victor Gischler and Paco Medina. “Mutants versus Vampires, part one.” Sigh. I remember when #1 X-books were like printing money… X-WOMEN #1 by Chris Claremont and Milo Manara. Manara drawing the X-babes? I don’t know if I dare to gaze upon this! But my 20 year-old self insists! Gotta look! |
