Andrea’s Spooky Selections for 09.07.2022

Hello Comic Shop Friends! We’ve got lots of Batman this week, some new number ones, and some horror for the start of the spooky season! First, there was a nationwide issue with shipping on some Marvel titles, so we are currently missing some of this week’s books. These are: Punisher, Star Wars, Wolverine, New Mutants, Moon Knight, and Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty. If you find you’re missing those, we will have them in, but there’s no timeline on when yet. But let’s get into what we do have! MARVEL The new Alien series from Phillip Kennedy Johnson and Julius Ohta starts this month. A small colony of synths has secretly settled on a backwater moon, but when soldiers attack and the synths are asked to help retrieve biotech on a hostile planet, they have to decide if the prospect of peace is worth the risk of betrayal. And flashbacks to Aliens tearing people up! That’s what you want from an Alien book! All-Out Avengers is an all-new Avengers series from Derek Landy and Greg Land. Dropping you right into...
