Graphic Policy’s Top Comic Picks this Week!

Posted on by
Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #2

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.

Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #2 (DC Comics) – The first issue was a hell of a lot of fun with a nice mix of new and old. There was a “classic” feel about it all in a lot of ways and we’re excited to see if it can keep it up.

Captain America #0 (Marvel) – We’ve got two new series featuring the dual Captain Americas and it all kicks off here!

Dark Beach #1 (Behemoth) – Earth has been drifting away from the sun for three hundred years/ The series follows a crime scene photographer who goes down the rabbit hole to solve a murder and what’s really going on.

Land of the Living Gods #3 (AfterShock) – The series has been fantastic giving us an apocalytpic tale set in Africa and delivering something very new and unique to Western comics.

Magic: Hidden Planeswalker #1 (BOOM! Studios) – While the second arc of the main series has been a bit off, this off-shoot should be interesting adding in more machinations.

The Nice House on the Lake #8 (DC Comics/DC Black Label) – The series is amazing the second volume has kept us on our toes guessing as to what’s happening and where it’s all going.

Red Scare (Graphix) – Set in 1953, the graphic novel features a clever girl who must outsmart bullies, the FBI, and alien invaders during the height of the communist Red Scare.

The Secret History of the War on Weed (Image Comics) – A “lost chapter” of the true story from the war on drugs. We gave the issue a glowing early review which you can read here.

We Live: Age of the Palladions #2 (AfterShock) – The second volume debuted with two issues that told two stories tied together set in the world. We’re excited to see how the dual narratives are handled as the action is sure to increase!

Weekly Preview! Two from AfterShock!

LAND OF THE LIVING GODS #1

Writer: Isaac Mogajane 
Artist and Colorist: Santtos 
Letterer: Dave Sharpe 
Cover: Santtos 
Incentive Cover: Andy Clarke w/ Jose Villarrubia
$4.99 / 32 pages / Color / On Sale 02.02.22

It is said that when the world dies, the spirits of the first people will return to witness the last days of humanity. Well, the spirits have arrived, and the end is here. But not everyone has given up hope.  

Naledi, a teenage girl living in the deserted city once called Johannesburg, has always believed that there is a land, hidden away in time where the gods still live. And where there are gods, there are miracles. Perhaps even miracles that are big enough to save our dying planet. And so, after a lifetime of isolation, Naledi will head out into the unknown with little to hold onto but her faith – and her magical pet plant, Buyo.

A fairy tale for the times in which we find ourselves, brought to life by South African writer and producer Isaac MoMogajane (Matwetwe,Catching Feelings) and Brazilian artist Santtos (Night Shift), LAND OF THE LIVING GODS will introduce you to a world of wonder and cruelty, beauty and perseverance – and will leave you profoundly changed.

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.

Apache Delivery Service #2 (Dark Horse Comics) – Any comic by Matt Kindt, Tyler Jenkins, and Hilary Jenkins is likely getting on this list. The first issue being interesting doesn’t hurt either.

Batgirls #3 (DC Comics) – The series has been a lot of fun with a solid mix of story and pop art to go along with it. There’s a kinetic energy about it all that has us hooked.

Bylines in Blood #2 (AfterShock) – The first issue was solid focusing on a murder a detective needs to solve while exploring the failure of the systems meant to protect and lead us.

Cult of Ikarus #1 (Scout Comics) – Hunter wants to find out who she is but after vampire assassins come for her, she’s on the run from the deadly Cult of Ikarus.

Devil’s Reign #4 (Marvel) – The event has been fantastic so for and this issue is full of action and some solid emotional and tragic moments.

Hecates Will #2 (Black Mask Studios) – Hecate tenaciously continues her mission of scattering graffiti stencil puzzle pieces through the streets of Manhattan. It’s a very different and intriguing series so far.

Hellboy & the BPRD 1957: Forgotten Lives (Dark Horse Comics) – It’s a Hellboy one-shot. These are always entertaining in some way and well worth getting if you want some action horror to read.

Land of the Living Gods #1 (AfterShock) – The end is here! The spirits of the first people have returned to witness the last days of humanity. Enter a world of wonder and cruelty, beauty and perseverance.

Life Zero #1 (Ablaze) – A new sci-fi, action, horror series with art by Marcho Checchetto.

Secret X-Men #1 (Marvel) – We’re suckers for the “B team” type of X-Men teams where it’s a mix of characters who usually don’t get the spotlight or respect.

Suicide Squad: Blaze #1 (DC Comics) – A slight twist on the usual formula with some of the regular members having to manage new recruits who are part of a secret government procedure called Blaze!

Weekly Preview! Living Gods, more Baloney and Friends, Magic, and more!
