Wednesdays (and Tuesdays) are new comic book day! Each week hundreds of comics are released, and that can be pretty daunting to go over and choose what to buy. That’s where we come in
Each week our contributors choose what they can’t wait to read this week or just sounds interesting. In other words, this is what we’re looking forward to and think you should be taking a look at!
Find out what folks think below, and what comics you should be looking out for this week.
Batman: Dark Age #1 (DC Comics) – Mark Russell, Michael Allred, and Laura Allred team again but have moved on from Superman to Batman. We’re expecting great things considering the last time they worked together.
Duke #4 (Skybound) – Skybound’s Energon Universe is the best comic universe on the market right now and this series has shown what can be done with the 40 year old property G.I. Joe. It’s X-Files/conspiracy/paranoia/action has been amazing so far.
Feral #1 (Image Comics) – Meet Elsie, Lord Fluffy Britches, and Patch, three indoor cats lost in the not-so-great outdoors during a nightmarish rabies outbreak. Considering what Tony Fleecs and Trish Forstner did with Stray Dogs, we’re beyond excited to see what they do with this.
Fist of the North Star Vol. 12 (VIZ Media) – Loving the hardcover new edition releases of this classic series.
