Strange Adventures #1
Strange Adventures #1 (King, Gerads, Shaner, Cowles): If you’re in the mood for some complex, surprisingly astute analysis of western colonialism wrapped in a patina of 1940’s all-American pulp, pick up the first issue of Tom King and Mitch Gerads’ Strange Adventures. It’s well worth the cover price.
DetailsThe Magnificent Mrs. Marvel #13
The Magnificent Ms. Marvel #13 (Ahmed, Vasquez, Vlasco, Herring) gives us an intriguing new character in Amulet. However, due to its placement between a big arc and an even bigger cross-title event, it doesn’t seem to do much else.
DetailsThough not quite the profound statement it wants to be on all things Flash (though it comes close!), issue 750 (Williamson, Sandoval, Segovia, & so many more) of this legendary title is still a wonderful testament to the staying power of its titular hero, his legacy, and what the future holds. Spoiler: it’s coming at you faster than light!
DetailsKing of Nowhere #1
King of Nowhere #1 (Prince, Jenkins, Jenkins, AndWorld Design) is a promising beginning to a darkly funny, mysterious, and pleasantly off-kilter miniseries.
DetailsGhost Rider #5
Ghost Rider #5 (Brisson, Frigeri, Keith, Caramagna) is packed with dark yet fantastic developments, but it’s the humanistic elements that continue to push the series into new depths. This is required reading for any fan of Ghost Rider!
DetailsConan The Barbarian #13
Conan The Barbarian #13 (Zub, Antonio, Silva): If you like colorful backdrops, well written stories, and exciting scenes then this is the Conan tale for you.
DetailsStrange Academy #1
Strange Academy #1 (Young, Ramos, & Delgado) creates a perfect entry point to the Marvel Universe for young, new readers. Fun characters and beautiful art make this an enjoyable read for anyone to pick up.
DetailsMonster Planet #3
Monster Planet #3 (Brusha, Arino, Araujo, Esposito) is another crazy fun issue in an action-horror series that knows how to leave you wanting more.
DetailsX-Men/Fantastic 4 #2
X-Men/Fantastic 4 #2 (Zdarsky, Dodson, Miller, Caramagna): This book perfectly balances complex themes and lighter tone to produce a story which is equal parts contemplative and deeply entertaining. When you add Dodson’s masterful art to the equation, you absolutely cannot miss.
DetailsSHAZAM #11
After a slow start the arc, “SHAZAM and the Seven Magic Lands” is picking up the pace and barrelling towards the finish line with SHAZAM! #11 (Johns, Kolins).
DetailsJohn Constantine: Hellblazer #4
John Constantine: Hellblazer #4 (Spurrier, Bergara, Bellaire) begins a new arc in fresh clothes, that is until Constantine ruins them. In this visually gorgeous issue, Constantine meets Tommy Willowtree, who just might be everything he hates. Still, Willowtree needs Constantine’s help, but Constantine might need Willowtree’s more.

Catwoman #20 (Jones, Blanco): We have zombies everyone, I repeat we have zombies and a group of cute alley cats.
