MARVEL COMICS


As the Avengers seek to undermine Doom’s ascent to power, they have to utilize an unexpected source of help, a coalition of super villains! Doctor Octopus, Arcade, Mysterio, the Goblin Queen, Baron Mordo, and M.O.D.O.K. all want to take down Doom once and for all, and if they have to work with the Avengers to do it, so be it. With a dual physical and magical attack, they learn the truth behind how Doctor Doom took over the world. With Doom one, or many, steps ahead of those against him, the super hero and villain team-up won’t achieve their intended outcome… especially with someone else watching Earth, who also wants Doom out of power. 


Bloodier than the Red Band books! Grislier than the Texas Chainsaw Massacre! Spider-Man goes up against a serial killer Predator! It’s the hottest summer in New York City, and as the temperature rises, so does the crime. But this isn’t just the regular bank robbers and muggers, this is something far more dangerous. A new Predator, nicknamed Skinner, is terrorizing the city, and once a blackout hits, it’s up to Peter Parker and J. Jonah Jameson to warn everyone. Ben Percy and Marcelo Ferreira present a grisly, bloodthirsty Predator against your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man!

DC COMICS

Along with the new issues of Absolute Martian Manhunter and Absolute Wonder Woman, DC has new printings for Absolute Batman #1, #2, and #3, Absolute Superman #1, and Absolute Wonder Woman #1! Grab them if you missed out!


“What happens in your head also happens.” The transformation of John Jones’ mind by the Martian Mind****er continues. Questioning everything he sees, Jones must learn to let the Martian guide him, as his reality and belief in good, evil, and free will are tested. The Martian is aware of a killer on the streets, and leading Jones to the suspect leads both of them to learn of a threat to the human race. Another mind-bending issue from Deniz Camp and Javier Rodriguez.


Diana has escaped the Underworld once. Can she do it again? It’s the Absolute Wonder Woman take on the Lady or the Tiger fable! Diana and Circe may have to sacrifice more than either wishes in Hades’ trial. With two Li’l Diana shorts! Adorable! From Kelly Thompson, Mattia De Iulis, and Dustin Nguyen.

SMALL PRESS COMICS


Best comic book title of the week goes to Moonshine Bigfoot! Found by moonshiners as a baby, Moonshine Bigfoot is now running liquor in Buzzard County. And running from Sheriff Justus P. Worrell. And running from the American Bigfoot and Cryptid Hunters. And running from his rival, Crank Torquelson. With his hippie girlfriend Amethyst, cohort Uncle Pineapple, and his souped-up Mach 1, he’s running the county. But there’s a mysterious stranger in town with his sights set on Moonshine Bigfoot, some tricks up his sleeve, and that might just be the end of Ol’ M.B. Mike Marlow, Zach Howard, and Steve Ellis mix cryptids with Smokey and the Bandit and the Dukes of Hazzard for a goofy action-packed mini-series!
