3. Shadowman #1
  • As most of you know by know, I am a huge fan of writer Justin Jordan and highly recommend his work, especially The Strange Talents of Luther Strode.
  • But the spotlight would have to go to artist Patrick Zircher! His preview pages are ridiculous and I can’t wait to check out the full comic later today.
  • This is a relaunch of a classic Valiant Comic from the 90’s. It will focus on Jack Boniface, who will have to embrace the legacy he is known (Shadowman) for to battle foes that land on his home-turf.
  • You can expect lots of monsters, blood and utility belt action!

4. Animal Man #14
  • Its been a bad year for Buddy Baker and it’s only going to get worse. The rot has taken over and his families live’s are (were?) at stake.
  • Rotworld part two continues here!

5. Swamp Thing #14
  • If you’re reading Animal Man, then you must be reading Swamp Thing as well. These books are self-contained but read well together!
  • I am really happy Yanick Paquette is back on art, his layouts and detailed work is absolutely beautiful but terrifying at the same time.

  • Jiminy Crickets that cover is unsettling……

10. Battlefields Green Fields Beyond Pt 1 #1
  • Writer Garth Ennis is pretty much the only reason to pick this up. His Battlefield stories are amazing and they are action-packed and moving.
  • Battlefield comics have been pretty much the best military comics coming out today, focusing on different aspects of WWII.
