Hello and nice to see you all again! We’re going to start out this week once again with Wonderbot’s Picks of the Week, and then take a look at what is brand spanky new. Away we go!
Fables #106- This is probably my favorite comic books series ever. The artwork is great, and the writing is fantastic. The world that Bill Willingham has created will always keep you guessing what is going to happen next. Hus-bot is a big fan of “Fables” as well. In the last issue Bigby wolf and his father had a knock-down-drag-out fight. This issue we will be picking up the pieces and moving on from there. Also, the barrier Mister Dark out of Haven falls, leaving the kingdom entirely unprotected from him.
Spirit #15- ‘Dear Spirit: Won’t you please be my Valentine?’ No matter how The Spirit celebrates Valentine’s Day each year, he always receives a card from a mysterious admirer. But knowing his luck, this lovestruck lady is bound to turn bitter and a bit, well, fatale.
Hack/Slash #5– Hack/slash is another one of my favorite comics. Cassie Hack’s mother was a serial killer, and her father wasn’t the nicest of men either. After witnessing her mother commit a heinous murder, Cassie vows to become the killer of killers. Kinda like a chick Dexter, only hotter, and dealing with way more supernatural stuff. In this issue the skull-faced mystery woman Fantomah comes to Cassie and Vlad for help. But, what could a super powerful goddess, known for her horrible (yet creative) methods of tormenting evil doers, need with a teenage girl and a mutant with a machete?
That’s what I’ll be reading this week!
Dc is also continuing with their “Flashpoint” limited series, and the titles out this week include:
Flashpoint Kid Flash Lost Starring Bart Allen #1 (of 3)
Flashpoint Lois Lane And The Resistance #1 (of 3)
Flashpoint The Outsider #1 (of 3)
Flashpoint The Reverse Flash One Shot
There is also a new comic from IDW out this week that seems promising…
Infestation Outbreak #1 (of 4) — The zombie threat is over, but at great cost to CVO, who must pick up the pieces, rebuild the team, and figure out what lasting repercussions there are in a world where magic was forever changed. And a threat from beyond also brings in other familiar faces from across IDW’s developing universe!
Marvel also has a few second and third printings out this week. In case you missed them the first (or second) time around, the titles Marvel is reprinting this week are:
Fear Itself #2
Journey into Mystery #622 and 623
Mighty Thor #2
Moon Knight #1
Venom #1
