Featured New Releases for 6-26-2019

I’m back from vacation! Kauai is amazing! I never got to do this week’s Facebook posts but here’s a quick round up of this week’s highlights! Marvel Titles It’s a great week if you’re a fan of Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham! Marvel dropped the ball when Into the Spider-Verse came out by not having anything really in print. This week we have three new items, a new one shot special, a $1.00 reprint of his classic first issue, and a huge graphic novel of classic material. Everything about the Peter Porker the Spectacular Spider-Ham one shot is hilarious, from the main story to the back up. It feels classic and modern at the same time. Plus, he has drinks with Howard the Duck! Stand alone story too! No baggage! Spider-Ham first appeared in 1983, and he can read his first appearance for only $1.00! Captain Americat too! There’s also the first volume of the Complete Peter Porker, in case you want to branch off past that first issue. For you classic Wolverine fans, we’ve got a one-shot for you,...

Featured New Releases for 6-5-2019

We’ve got some fun selections across the board this week! Here’s the featured new releases coming out this Wednesday, June 5th, 2019! MARVEL PICKS Marvel’s leading the pack with the return of a classic creative team on the Incredible Hulk Last Call One Shot. Writer Peter David and artist DALE KEOWN return for a $4.99 special! Dale is one of the greatest modern Hulk artists, and pulling him out of retirement is a really big deal.  “Bruce Banner is tired of being the Hulk. Heck, he’s tired of being. But just when he’s about to lose all hope, a miracle occurs: a fight worthy of the Incredible Hulk.” Marvel also has the new ongoing Black Cat series this week, with covers by J Scott Campbell and Artgerm, both at cover price. There’s a few ratio variants as well for the speculator crowd. Felicia Hardy stands to hold a place in the new Spider cinematic universe, so this is a good way to get yourself introduced to her.  Also for fun, and a long time coming, is the Marvel Art of Skottie Young...

Featured New Releases for 5-29-2019

Alright! We’re back in business after FCBD and we’ve got a huge week full of amazing stuff. (This is likely my favorite week of 2019!) Here’s the Featured New Release coming out this Wednesday, May 29th, 2019! DC Books Batman Last Knight on Earth will be the culmination of all of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo’s work on Batman! It’s a new three issue DC Black Label mini series, just like Batman Damned. (you know, the one with the…) Batman works his way through a devastated DCU landscape with Joker’s head in tow. They say this is their final Batman story together. $5.99 prestige format. Another much anticipated book is the Superman Leviathan Rising Special! It’s up to Superman’s friends to save him from Leviathan! This will be Matt Fraction’s DC debut with Jimmy Olsen, as well as Greg Rucka’s take on Lois Lane, all wrapped in a story by Brian Bendis. Fraction’s beloved in the industry and Rucka is know for incredibly powerful female characters. Some books are worth the $9.99 price tag. Oversized and prestige format. Two of...

This week we’re deviating from the norm to give a shout out to a book we really love. The Immortal Hulk by Al Ewing recently got a pretty big honor, it outsold Batman for the month of April! Since this stat is not true in our shop, and we love the book so much, and we finally got new printings of the first two graphic novels, AND the third graphic novel came out this week, we thought we’ve urge everyone to hop on board and give the book a try. The book is redefining the mainstream horror genre, and well as flesh out the Hulk sometimes convoluted history. Here is the best pitch I can give, straight from Marvel. If these 16 things don’t sell it to you, then it’s not for you. Each graphic novel covers five issues and retails for only $15.99 each! We got really big stacks of all three so it will be there when you stop in. We’re also going to give a big shout of to War of the Realms, which has been very...
