New Comics For Wednesday 26th of February



Well, well, well...looks like February has all but disappeared behind us and March is fast approaching! We all just need to calm down and read some comics...like these ones.

A brand new FANTASTIC FOUR #1...now they have red costumes! The first issues of the BATMAN SUPERMAN and WORLDS FINEST crossover "First Contact" story is out. The second act of Sydner's WAKE starts with issue #6. Gail Simone delivers us another iconic female hero title with TOMB RAIDER #1. Something nasty about a guy that has his face removed in REVENGE #1.The next collection in Kirkman and Spencer's THIEF OF THIEVES TP VOL 03  hits. Finally a new printing of Ennis excellent covert tale UNKNOWN SOLDIER TP is out. One of the best comedy and underrated reads of last year SUPERIOR FOES SPIDER-MAN TP VOL 01 is definitely worth a look in. It's always hard to ignore the next book of INVINCIBLE TP with VOL 19 THE WAR AT HOME. And hopefully our copies of ONI's new hit web series BUNKER #1 will finally make it here!

ALL STAR LEGENDS Presents : Criminal The Last Of The Innocent


We may have visited the Criminal series in the past with the Legend picks, yet here we are again  with The Last Of The Innocent arc. It honestly feels like the perfect storm of both Brubaker and Phillip's skills as storytellers coming together after five previous tales for this brilliant stand alone story. This book is a huge fave of our's around the store but none more so than our young upstart, Fred "Aussie" Atkins. So tell us what you think, young Fredrick...






Criminal: The Last of the Innocent By Ed Brubaker and Sean Philips was actually the first Criminal book I read. The fantastic cover of the first issue was enough to make me buy and the story inside kept it going. The Criminal series is very easy to get into, all the stories stand on their own but if you’ve read them all you’ll pick up on a few extra things. The hook is simple. Riley Richards has a great life in the city, married to a beautiful woman, an amazing job but he isn’t happy, he can’t seem to forget the life he had in his home town Brookview.




Ed Brubaker has a great history in crime writing and this tale showcases some of his very best. The Last of the Innocent cuts between the leads now and as young teens and Brubaker captures both different times perfectly. Sean Philips also draws in two different styles throughout the book, a harsh and dark noir style in the current time and a light fun ‘Archie’ style during the characters teenage years. The difference of style helps to sell the difference in the characters when comparing them now to when they were kids.


As I found Last of the Innocent is a great spot to look into the Criminal series. A compelling story about money, murder, lust and wondering "what if" Archie married Veronica. If I have said nothing that interests you about the book so far, just look at the covers, they are more than worth it.
  

Thank you Fred. So in summary, DO judge this book by it's cover. You definitely won't be disappointed. :D


As always, the ALL STAR LEGEND will be available for 30 days (or until stock sells out) at the discounted price. As this will be a limited stock promotion there is strictly "no holds" on the legend.  First in, best read! No further discount applies to the book as there's a pretty good chance it will already be cheaper than the US cover price! The discount also only applies to the volume listed, not the entire series of trades.


If you have any questions, you know where to ask them. You can start to buy the Legend from this Thursday the 6th of February.


All Star Legends. The legendary titles of the highest recommendation.

Also on Tuesday we'll be drawing our 3rd Anniversary Giveaway for the $500 gift voucher. Then on Wednesday there is rad new comics. Thursday, the next All Star Legend Pick. Saturday we'll be asking you to join in with us, remembering what would have been uncredited Batman co-creator, Bill Finger's 100th birthday by sharing our Facebook Banner image for the day.

BUT! In the meantime, here's a taste of the awesome yet to come. LOKI AGENT OF ASGARD #1 gives a much closer to Tim Hiddleston version of the character we have seen to date! MS MARVEL #1, one of the most exciting new titles in the ALL NEW NOW line hits. PUNISHER #1 from Nathan Edmondson of Who Is Jake Ellis fame, yep, buzzed! DC COMICS PRESENTS HARLEY QUINN #1 reprinting Harley's first appearance in the "old" DC not 52. Dynamite takes a swing at reviving TUROK DINOSAUR HUNTER #1. Archie and his band tour to Australia, in ARCHIE #652. The second and final collection of the quirky DIAL H TP VOL 02 is out. Marvel's mega event INFINITY HC get the hardcover treatment. The final installment LOCKE & KEY HC VOL 06 ALPHA & OMEGA finally gets collected. More haunted western awesome in SIXTH GUN TP VOL 06.
