New Comics For Wednesday 30th October


Halloween and our Witchy signing behind us, this fifth week is still plenty scary...just look at the size of this monster shipment and it's coming for YOU!

A new age in the X-Men's history, the Dawn of X, continues with EXCALIBUR #1 DX, from Tini Howard and Marcus To. The home of magic in the Marvel universe, Otherworld, has found new guardians: Excalibur, a team of mutants, featuring Rogue, Gambit, Rictor and Jubilee, led by Captain Britain. But that's not all, for this line-up also includes none other than one of mutantkind's greatest threats, Apocalypse, but is this his chance to prove himself their greatest ally?

Following in the vein of Ed Piskor's X-Men: Grand Design series, Tom Scioli carries on the format to tell the nearly 60 year long history of the Fantastic Four, beginning with FANTASTIC FOUR GRAND DESIGN #1 (OF 2). See the moments you know recreated, including the origin of the Fantastic Four, their first clashes with Doctor Doom and the coming of Galactus. Then witness some you may not have known involved the famous foursome, including the introduction of the Black Panther and the revelation of the Inhumans. No need for volume upon volume of trades, these two issues will give you the perfect crash course in all things fantastic and Marvel, illustrated by Scioli in the classic Kirby style.

It's almost Halloween, which means it's the perfect time for Marvel's ghastly abominations to return. That's right folks, get ready for a brand new era of Marvel Zombies as MARVEL ZOMBIES RESURRECTION #1, from Phillip Johnson and Leonard Kirk, hits the shelves. When the body of Galactus arrives at the edge of the Solar System, Earth's mightiest heroes go out to investigate, but they are nor prepared for the horrors contained within the corpse of Galactus. Infected with a biological virus, they all deteriorate into undead travesties of their former glory, and there is an entire homeworld for them to feed on. Friends, families, will any body be spared the horrors of Marvel Zombies?

In an attempt to have his final revenge on that infernal pest, Spider-Man, Norman Osborn combined the Carnage symbiote with his Green Goblin formula to become the scourge of New York, the Red Goblin. While we know the outcome of those horrid shenanigans, Patrick Gleason, Pete Woods and more shine a light on some of the Red Goblin's escapades before his final defeat in RED GOBLIN RED DEATH #1. Find out how dreaded the Red Goblin truly was in this special one-shot release.

Just in time for Halloween, horror comics extraordinaire, Joe Hill, launches his pop-up horror imprint, Hill House Comics, with BASKETFUL OF HEADS #1 (OF 6), written by Hill and featuring art from Leomacs. On Brody Island, June Branch's boyfriend has been snatched away from her by four dangerous criminals. Her only means of defense is an 8th century Viking axe that has the power to cleave a head from a body, but keep it alive. Now June must learn all she can from the severed heads of the people who kidnapped her boyfriend, but can she cut through their deception to learn the truth?

As one zombie saga begins anew, another reaches its ultimate conclusion with DCEASED #6 (OF 6), from Tom Taylor and Trevor Hairsine. With the technovirus zombie plague spreading all over the Earth, humanity inches nearer and nearer to extinction, with only a handful of Justice League members standing between the zombies and the survivors. Will they be enough to save the day, or have they already lost?

Last week came the most iconic Batman issue of the 90s, now this week you can grab an affordable copy of Superman's most recognised 90s comic, with DOLLAR COMICS SUPERMAN #75. The issue in which the Man of Steel gives his life to save Metropolis, Dan Jurgens let's it rip with splash page after splash page of epic combat action between Superman and Doomsday you can only find in comics.

From the Eisner-winning team behind Gideon Falls, Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino, comes the psychological nightmare that is JOKER KILLER SMILE #1 (OF 3). The mind of the Joker is terrifying, a black hole that sweeps up anyone and everyone in its wake, to twist them until they're as mad as he is. But the confident Dr. Ben Arnell, who's ready to analyse and diagnose the Joker after many have failed, and he's prepared his mind to withstand the worst the Joker can throw at him. But while his mind is secure, is Arnell's life quite as safe as it once was?

A DC Black Label book unlike any other arrives this week, a medieval fantasy telling the stories of two different bands of warriors fighting the same threat 30 years apart begins with LAST GOD #1, from Philip Kennedy Johnson and Riccardo Fedderici. The land of Cain Anuun was under siege from the last living god, and their army of the undead, but a company of heroes stopped them in their tracks and became rulers of Cain Anuun, ushering an era of peace. But now, three decades later, the Last God is back to finish what it started, and the old company no longer have the strength to fight, leaving the fate of the realm in the hands of a new generation.

It's been a year since the Sandman Universe was restarted, and now year two begins with SANDMAN UNIVERSE SPECIAL HELLBLAZER #1, from Si Spurrier and Marcio Takara, which welcomes back the fan-favourite character, John Constantine, back into the fold. When last we saw John, he was murdered by a corrupted Timothy Hunter, but now John is back, he's either going to set Tim straight, or send him straight to hell.

In another world in DC's Dark Multiverse, Superman made the ultimate sacrifice to save Metropolis and the world from Doomsday, much like in the traditional DC Universe. But in TALES FROM THE DARK MULTIVERSE DEATH OF SUPERMAN #1, from Jeff Loveness, Brad Walker and Andrew Hennessy, the world was grateful for his sacrifice, and Lois Lane is twisted by her rage and grief, becoming the Eradicator. Fueled by anger and hatred, she will unleash on those who let Superman die and cleanse the world in a way Superman never could, and never would.

When you're waiting at an old train station in Russia on a still night, what's the worst that could happen? If you're Hellboy, quite a lot, as Mike Mignola and Matt Smith show us in HELLBOY & BPRD LONG NIGHT AT GOLOSKI STATION, as that quiet night becomes a demon battle between three sinister figures breaks out.

As we stand one installment away from the big, one hundredth issue of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the City at War arc heats up in TMNT ONGOING #99, from Kevin Eastman, Tom Waltz and Dave Wachter. Following the fallout of last month's unbelievable issue, New York City is drowning in chaos, leaving Bishop relentless in his pursuit of his targets, while Donatello and Metalhead have their final showdown that has been a long time coming.

Mark Millar finally returns to his popular time travel series with CHRONONAUTS FUTURESHOCK #1 (OF 4), featuring art from Eric Canete. Your favourite time-travelling physicists, Corbin Quinn and Danny Reilly, have gone to the future and are trying to win it over with their new device, the Timehawk. They're a little older, not much wiser, but definitely cooler, as the duo of best-friends embark on a new mission.
If you're already loving the sound of that, but don't want to wait months to get the complete story, then dear reader, you are in luck. For not only does issue one of this exciting miniseries arrive this week, but so does CHRONONAUTS FUTURESHOCK #2 (OF 4) , CHRONONAUTS FUTURESHOCK #3 (OF 4) and CHRONONAUTS FUTURESHOCK #4 (OF 4), meaning you can get the entire story in one hit and devour it in one sitting.

When Spider-Man came back from Battleworld and the Secret Wars, he came back rocking a slick, black costume. But we barely got to enjoy it before it was taken away, revealed to be a living alien being. So Peter David and Greg Land take us back to those original black suit days with an untold story in SYMBIOTE SPIDER-MAN TP. Featuring a timeless battle between Spider-Man and Mysterio, with Black Cat and a secret shame of her past caught in the middle, it's the classic kind of Spidey story you don't get any more in today's comics and well worth checking out.

Warren Ellis and Jon Davis-Hunt return to bring you WILD STORM TP VOL 04, which sees the return of Jenny Mei Sparks. Jenny has been around for over a century, and recently spent two decades of it drunk after having finally seen too many bad things. But now she's sobering up with a new plan, but unfortunately, other parties have other plans. Plans that result in the reduction of Earth's population by ninety percent. Can Jenny enact her own plan, and prevent the machinations of others?

Valiant's resident assassin, Roku, get her own miniseries to display her finely honed killing skills, starting with ROKU #1 (OF 4), from Cullen Bunn and Ramon Bachs. Traversing around the world, killing anyone who dares try to stop her in her path, she will have to sort out a problem that can't be solved with a swift execution.

Prepare yourselves for the coming of a new superhero with PINK LEMONADE #1, from Nick Cagnetti. Her name is Pink Lemonade, and she has everything a new hero needs: a cool costume, a mysterious identity and a more mysterious past and the desire to do good. So how then, you may ask, has she found herself in jail after trying to help a child? If you're dying to know, then be sure to pick this one up when it hits the shelf.

Fans of the artist with one of the most eye-catching, quirkiest styles today, Farel Dalrymple, presents a collection of works never before seen in OFTEN WRONG TP VOL 01. Within, you'll find original short comics, paintings and illustrations, all in her signature style, along with concept art for her popular series, such as Proxima Centauri, Pop Gun War and It Will All Hurt. If all that still isn't enough for you, you also get one hundred sketchbook drawings as well.

With the STREET ANGEL DEADLIEST GIRL ALIVE TP, Jim Rugg and Brian Mauca collects every special issue of Street Angel in one, convenient volume, starring the homeless, ninja, skateboarding girl, Jesse "Street Girl" Sanchez. She doesn't let her social conditions affect her drive to protect the neighborhood, fighting bullies, street gangs, hunger and other bad guys. Plus, she even helps a stray dog and saves Christmas! If this series can't put a smile on your face, we don't know what will.

If you've got presents to give to a comic book fan, why not wrap them up in something special? If that's what you'd like to do, the Dark Horse has you covered with HELLBOY WRAPPING PAPER & UMBRELLA ACADEMY WRAPPING PAPER. Featuring three sheets of wrapping paper in each pack, covered in artwork featuring your favourite Hellboy and Umbrella Academy characters, you won't find any finer wrapping paper anywhere else.

As if straight from the 80s themselves, a new range of Masters of the Universe action figures arrive with MOTU 5.5IN VINTAGE HE-MAN ACTION FIGUREMOTU 5.5IN VINTAGE HORDAK ACTION FIGUREMOTU 5.5IN VINTAGE SHE-RA ACTION FIGURE & MOTU 5.5IN VINTAGE SKELETOR ACTION FIGURE. Each of these figures are loving recreations of the original toys, which means you can relive your nostalgia for the good old days whilst forging new memories with He-Man, Hordak, She-Ra and Skeletor.

If you're tired of the same old white short box to store your comics, then you should give your collection a little more pizazz with the MARVEL GRAPHIC COMIC BOXES GHOST RIDER. Featuring artwork of Marvel's resident flaming-skulled, rubber-burning agent of vengeance, from Arthur Adams and Matthew Wilson, just looking at it will get you excited to read what lies within them

With the year coming close to an end, now's the perfect time to check out a copy of PREVIEWS #374 NOVEMBER 2019, which will be packed full of comics, toys and other goodies to get you excited for what's coming in the New Year! Make sure you're ready to start the new year properly, with all the exciting books and products soon to arrive.
