Raf’s Featured New Releases 10.13.21

Good morning and Happy New Comic Book Day CNJ shoppers! Raf here, back again to fill everybody in on the week’s featured new releases. It finally happened though! Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples are coming back with SAGA early next year, and Ben and the other guys have been hearing me for a few years now saying that as soon as it was announced I’d drop everything I was doing and reread the story so far. I encourage those who haven’t checked it out, to DO YOURSELF A FAVOR and do so! It’s simply the best of comics. But in the meantime, we’ve got new books this week. Let’s check ‘em out.  Marvel Comics Al Ewing’s masterful and great horror inspired take on the Big Green Giant comes to a close with issue 50. This has been one of the biggest books from Marvel over the past couple years, and arguably the Hulk’s best storyline in decades.

Happy New Comic Book Day! Raf here checking in, managing to pull myself away from listening to some Pantera and reading Jason Aaron’s Conan the Barbarian (By Crom, it’s awesome!) to talk about this week’s featured new releases.

Ben Reilly’s back in town and Marvel’s been teasing some serious medical bills for Peter Parker, but what does it all mean for the future of Spider-Man? It all starts here as the next era of Spider-Man begins! Following up after an awesome first issue last month, finally the next installment in Tom Taylor’s Dark Ages comes out this week. “ It has been years since the age of technology ended in a single moment, like a switch had been flicked to off for an entire planet.

Welcome back everybody, and Happy New Comic Book Day! Raf here again to deliver you the news on this week’s big new releases. A big finale from Marvel, at DC fan favorite character gets a surprising new partner, and small press packs the scares, all this week. Let’s dive in!  Marvel Comics Nick Spencer’s Spider-Man run has been epic and thrown Peter through a lot in three years and this week, with an over-sized $10 issue, Amazing Spider-Man #74 closes everything out. A lot has happened, and with multiple story-lines converging, and plenty of revelations and answers still due, this issue promises to be huge and send not only Peter, but maybe even a familiar face (Ben Reilly??) BEYOND.  Also just in time for the new Venom sequel this Friday, the Extreme Carnage miniseries wraps up this week with an Omega one-shot. Simply put, “IT’S ALL COME DOWN TO THIS! CARNAGE WINS!” That can’t be good news…  And for all you X-heads out there like me, this has been the book you’ve been waiting for: Inferno! Jonathan Hickman’s X-Men tenure...
