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.
Amazing Spider-Man #25 (Marvel) – Marvel’s teasing some big stuff in this one, so don’t miss out Spidey fans!
Daughters of Snow and Cinders (Fantagraphics) – Fleeing the fires of her war-torn homeland, a young woman travels to the New World in search of gold to rebuild her life.
Disney Villains: Scar #2 (Dynamite) – The first issue was fantastic filling in some of Scar’s unknown story from The Lion King.
Dog Knight Vol. 1 (Feiwel & Friends) – Frankie is saved from a friendly golden retriever from bullies and wakes up in a giant doghouse and tasked to prove they posses the six dog virtues of loyalty, kindness, honesty, justice, stubbornness, and smell.
Extreme Venomverse #1 (Marvel) – It’s the Summer of Symbiotes and this is a small piece of that big puzzle that’s going on.
Gatsby (AWA Studios) – A new take on the classic F. Scott Fitzgerald novel.
Ghostlore #1 (BOOM! Studios) – We’ve all heard of ghost stories… but what stories do the ghosts themselves tell us? Ghosts telling ghost stories? Written by Cullen Bunn with art by Leomacs? Yeah, we’re in.
Green Lantern #1 (DC Comics) – It’s a new status-quo for the Lanterns, Hal Jordan, and John Stewart and it’s a fantastic start.
The Nasty #2 (Vault Comics) – The first issue was an interesting spin on the horror genre about a group of kids wanting to save their video store and going to make their own scary movie.
Samurai Doggy #6 (AfterShock) – The series has been an entertaining story but it’s the visuals that have us really excited to check out each issue.
Something Epic #1 (Image Comics) – Outside our perception, creative thought takes physical form, with only a handful of individuals known as Epics able to interact with this wondrous hidden world. It sounds like an intriguing idea and we’re excited to see how this one plays out.
Spirit World #1 (DC Comics) – From the pages of Lazarus Planet: Dark Fate, a new Chinese hero emerges who’s able to travel to and from the Spirit World, the realm of the dead, and that of the living. We’re always excited to check out new heroes and ideas.
WildC.A.T.s #7 (DC Comics) – The series has been a wild ride that fans of the characters should enjoy and this latest issue begins to lay out the conspiracy as we’re not sure who we can trust.
