DetailsUnbreakable
Unbreakable follows down-on-his-luck David Dunn as he finds he has superpowers he can use to do good. Director M. Night Shyamalan’s career is an interesting one. His highs are high and his lows are low. One of his best movies is Unbreakable. Why? Let’s find out.
DetailsAvengers #33 (Aaron, Garron, Keith) pits Moon Knight against the Avengers… and prevailing?!

DetailsRobin: Son of Batman #1-6
Damian Wayne’s FIRST ongoing series starts here in Robin: Son of Batman #1-6 (Gleason, Gray, Kalisz, Napolitano), a series that takes a deep dive into both his traumatic upbringing as well as his newfound pursuit of self-improvement for a unique coming of age story that breaks through the emotional walls of Damian and exposes a heartfelt character with unlimited potential.
DetailsAmazing Spider-Man #43
Amazing Spider-Man #43 (Spencer, Ottley, Rathburn, Fairbairn, Cunniffe) is a deep dive into the psyche of a misunderstood monster whose lost the only thing that’s ever been important to him.
DetailsWolverine: Killing Made Simple #1
Fans of the character will most likely find enjoyment in Wolverine: Killing Made Simple #1 (Yost, Dezago, Turnbull, Kurth) if only for the concept alone.
