Astonishing X-Men #5

Batman: The Devastator

Batman: White Knight #2

Superman #34

The Gravediggers Union #1

Ty’s Top Pick

Black Bolt #7

I’ve been talking this series up because it’s really crazy. One reason I’m really excited about this is Fraser Irving is doing the art for this issue, and he has this really crazy digital painting style that fits these big cosmic story. This is writer Saladin Ahmed’s first comic and it is FANTASTIC.

Brandon’s Picks

No. 1 With A Bullet #1

Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man #9

Power Pack #63

Rick and Morty Hardcover Volume 2

Stray Bullets #29

Brandon’s Top Pick

Batman: The Dark Prince Charming #1

Enrico Marini is doing this hardcover, and DC is embracing a new format. It’s a cool European-style graphic novel, and I love seeing them being a little more experimental with their big characters.

Patrick’s Top Pick

Eternity #1

It’s so much more than the next DIVINITY miniseries (which have consistently been some of Valiant’s best work), ETERNITY is a grand epic beyond time and space, yet still grounded and human enough to be accessible.

Super Sons #8

It’s a really cool multiverse-hopping book; you’re starting to see more teamwork between the super sons but they’re still not ready to admit they’re friends. I really dig this series, it’s just a lot more fun than anything else.
