Enter the Immutables, who make Dr. Kelly Vu and Dr. David Kim’s super-heroic body-sharing problems feel downright frivolous when they make their position clear-mere humans are not meant to live forever, and these godlike beings will put an end to anyone who tries!

Kelly Vu and David Kim, partners in both life and science, miraculously survived a horrible attack…but Kelly’s body was sacrificed in the process!

Far above their heads, powerful forces lie in wait for the right moment to finish what they started-and end David and Kelly once and for all.

When Milestone returned, Reginald Hudlin and Denys Cowan weren’t planning to stop there! Now they welcome you to a whole new realm of original characters, extending far beyond Dakota…welcome to Earth-M! Nanotech engineers Dr. Kelly Vu and Dr. David Kim are committed to only one thing more than each other: using their regenerative nanobots to save the world. And following a violent attack, those very same nanobots end up saving David and Kelly’s lives…sort of. Their salvation comes with an unexpected consequence: husband and wife awaken to realize that they now share one super-powered body! Writer Greg Pak (Action Comics, Batman/Superman) and artist Khoi Pham (Teen Titans) team up to introduce two thrilling new superheroes in the body of one, with the power of billions of nanobots. But how close is too close, with the love of your life literally in your head? And what happens when a couple so closely bound dis-covers they have very different ideas about how their newfound powers should be used?

Graphic Policy’s Top Comic Picks this Week!

Posted on by
Savage Avengers #1

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 Town Called Terror #2 (Image Comics) – The first issue was an intriguing mystery mixed with some horror that wasn’t what we were expecting. We want to see where this goes as a son returns home after his father forces him to.

Break Out #2 (Dark Horse) – The first issue introduced us to a world where mysterious cubes kidnap people under the age of 18 and the group of kids that are going to break those taken out.

Duo #1 (DC Comics/Milestone) – Milestone’s Earth-M expands with new and original characters and Duo kicks that off!

History Comics: Stonewall Riots (First Second) – A great opportunity and way to learn about this historic and important event.

I Hate This Place #1 (Image Comics) – A mysterious force that attracts ghosts, aliens, and other supernatural beings is in a farm house inherited by two individuals.

Immortal X-Men #2 (Marvel) – The first issue shook up the Quiet Council and we want to see where this series goes to changing the status-quo.

Kaiju Score: Steal from the Gods #2 (AfterShock) – The popcorn heist series continues as a new team must figure out how to steal from a kaiju while also not get killed by a rival gang.

LEGO Ninjago Garmadon #2 (Image Comics/Skybound) – The first issue was fantastic and feels like it captures the “LEGO feel” while not overdoing. Story is first here, it just happens to be in the world of Ninjago!

Life Zero #4 (Ablaze) – Turn your brain off zombie killing action.

Savage Avengers #1 (Marvel) – Conan’s on the run from a Deathlok hunting him down. There’s a Terminator aspect to it all but it’s the team itself, both characters and creative, that has us excited.

Shaolin Cowboy: Cruel to Kin #1 (Dark Horse) – Geof Darrow’s latest volume of the popular series. We’re always excited to check out where he takes it and the amazing art.

X-Men Red #2 (Marvel) – How would this series stand out from the other “X” titles? We found out in the first issue which planted a nice flag and teased the direction it was going.
