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.
A Haunted Girl #1 (Image Comics) – Cleo, an adopted 16-year-old Japanese-American whose depression drove her to near-suicide, is trying unsuccessfully to reintegrate back into her old life. But her struggles are just beginning as she encounters an increasingly terrifying succession of ghosts.
American Psycho #1 (Massive Publishing/Sumerian) – Witness the greatest hits of Patrick’s murderous rampage while exploring new revelations in the world of American Psycho. On that, we’re dubious, but it’s also the journey of an all-new psychopath as social media obsessed millennial. That, we’re more intrigued by.
Batman and Robin #2 (DC Comics) – The first issue did a great job of balancing superheroics and family drama and we’re expecting more!
Batman: City of Madness #1 (DC Comics) – Writer/artist Christian Ward takes on Batman, nuff said.
Capwolf and the Howling Commandos #1 (Marvel) – It’s such a silly concept but perfect for the season.
Destiny Gate #1 (Image Comics/Top Cow Production) – Life, for the most part, is the product of the decisions you make. For some, a “wrong” decision or two (or more) leads to a crossroads on the other side of the Destiny Gate.
Earthdivers #11 (IDW Publishing) – Mission isn’t accomplished so it’s on to 1776 and an attempt to cave out a better future in the Declaration of Independence.
Mech Cadets #3 (BOOM! Studios) – The series has been a fantastic reintroduction to the world that mixes up military/giant robot/alien genres with youthful energy.
Midlife Hero at Fifty #1 (Image Comics) – After 25 years in the LAFD, Ruben’s firmly in the middle of an unremarkable life…until his new wife gets pregnant and a random act of courage reveals that Ruben is FIREPROOF!
Nights #1 (Image Comics) – Supernatural creatures exist among the common folk, and America is comprised of just 31 states. Ok, that’s enough to get us to check this out.
Operation Sunshine #1 (Dark Horse) – A group of young, alienated vampires known as “bugs” plot to steal a magical object from ancient monstrous vampires to turn themselves back to human.
Scarlett Couture: The Munich File #3 (Titan Comics) – Sexy pop spy action!
Superior Spider-Man Returns #1 (Marvel) – We’re fans of the original run with the character and intrigued to see how this return happens.
Wesley Dodds: The Sandman #1 (DC Comics) – The classic Sandman is back and must get his journal with all of the other failed and more deadly gas formulas back.
