It’s a new week of comic goodness and the team has put together some of their choices of comics you should be checking out this week!

TOP PICK: Lobster Johnson Get the Lobster #1 (Dark Horse) – I couldn’t have been more excited when Dark Horse announced a five-issue Lobster run. The last two-comic series, Scent of Lotus, was WAY too short. Can LJ stop murderous professional wrestlers??

Black Widow #3 (Marvel) – One of the few Marvel series I currently read. Nathan Edmondson and Phil Noto deliver a stunning, 70s-esque series that brings the Black Widow back to her gritty yet refined roots.

Five Ghosts #9 (Image) – Not going to lie, these latest follow-up issues to the original, tour-de-force story arc have been anticlimactic, but I’m still in it to win it…for now. I feel like Fabian has been trying to steal a boat the last three books.

Turok: Dinosaur Hunter #1 (Dynamite) – Admittedly, I thought this was a late 90s Nintendo 64 game before I knew it was a comic from the 50s. Native Americans battling dinosaurs? Tough to pass up.

TOP PICK: Punisher #1 (Marvel) – I’m a Punisher fan, and the string of series Marvel’s released recently have been solid. A new ongoing series is finally launching taking the Punisher to the west coast.

Loki: Agent of Asgard #1 (Marvel) – Loki has been revitalized between the movies and his younger version that was most recently in Young Avengers. He gets the spotlight now in his own series. I really want to see what this is, but a bit nervous.

Ms. Marvel #1 (Marvel) – One of the more interesting recent releases by Marvel. I expect to be a lot of love or hate about this one, which sees a young Jersey girl take on the Ms. Marvel mantle. I’m willing to give it a shot, it should be interesting.

Revelations #2 (BOOM! Studios) – I loved the first issue which saw a detective head to the Vatican to solve a murder. It’s blasphemous noir. I love it!

Turok: Dinosaur Hunter #1 (Dynamite) – Turok is back! The classic Gold Key character, who I got to know through Valiant, is back in a revitalization of the Gold Key line. The first issue is an interesting an entertaining start.
