This week sees the release of Marvel‘s Infinity #6, the final chapter in their galaxy spanning event written by Jonathan Hickman. While at times the event seemed too big and involving too many moving parts, it’s been overall one of the better events Marvel has released.

While the heroes were away, Thanos has been laying siege to Earth, and now with the Builders defeated, all of Earth’s heroes, and some of the galaxy’s, can focus on the mad tyrant. It’s everyone versus Thanos in what’s likely to be one hell of a drag out fight in this over-sized issue.

Marvel failed in the ending to their last major event, Age of Ultron, turning it into a series of long ads for new comics coming out of it. We’ll see if they correct that last mistake here. But, no matter, this event has changed the Marvel Universe, and it’ll be key to see where it goes next.

Check out below for the rest of our picks.

Brett:

Top Pick: Black Science #1 (Image) – Image has had a string of hits with their new series and writer Rick Remender is a favorite of mine, so a new series by him, released by Image is a given as a top pick.

Hawkeye #14 (Marvel) – One of my favorite comics out there, and one of the best Marvel releases. Just shows not all super hero comics have to have you fighting over the top villains.

Infinity #6 (Marvel) – Check out the reasons I gave above.

Letter 44 #2 (Oni Press) – Charles Soule’s mix of politics and science fiction is awesome and this second issue is one I’ve been waiting for since the series debut.

Mind MGMT #17 (Dark Horse) – Probably the best series you’re not reading.

Powerpuff Girls #3 (IDW Publishing) – I never really watched the cartoon series, but this comic so far has me beyond entertained with each issue.

Sean:

Top Pick: Saga #16 (Image Comics) – It’d be a damn shame not to have this at the top of my list. Is there any reason I need to be telling you this?

Infinity #6 (Marvel) – Marvel has been slamming Infinity out of the park, and they’ve ultimately shown me that they have what it takes to incorporate a magnificently vast science-fictional universe into their comics. This is basically Star Wars with superheroes.

Larfleeze #5 (DC Comics) – Keith Giffen is one of my all-time favorite comics writers (albeit, he mostly just does stories while DeMatteis writes), and his Larfleeze is a hilarious, Douglas-Adamsesque take on the weirdest corner of the Green Lantern-verse.

The Goon #44 (Dark Horse) – It’s been a few years since the Goon was around, and this issue is sure to promise a ton of bastardized Spanish grammar. I’m sure there’s a heavy critique of racism and linguistic power there somewhere…

Sledgehammer ’44: Lightning War #1 (Dark Horse) – Mignola’s Sledgehammer is one of the cooler additions to the Mignolaverse, so this shouldn’t be ignored!

Robert E. Howard’s Savage Sword #6 (Dark Horse) – I’ve chosen this in lieu of a TPB, because it’s a heftier and pricier comic, at $7.99. A collection of stories from and inspired by R.E. Howard’s fantasy world.
