Rejoice! Adventure Time #1 from Boom Studios is being released digitally today on Comixology. This is such a wonderful cartoon there is no other book I’ve been this excited about in quite some time.
If the world’s current finest cartoon isn’t your thing DC Comics is rolling out a handful of sixes. We are now a half a year into DC Comics ‘the New 52’ and things are rolling along better than I’d expected. With a few story arcs wrapping up and a few just starting NOW is the time to check out a few new titles. I’m going to give Mister Terrific, Suicide Squad, Huntress, and Resurrection Man another chance this week. At $2.99 a piece it’s not too big of a risk.
Check some previews HERE.
IDW has done a disservice to their awesome Lovecraft infused crossover event by not releasing a title this week. G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes Ongoing #10 will fill the crossover void with part 5 of the title spanning Cobra Command story.
I know I’m missing the boat on a few great IMAGE titles so drop me a line and clue me in. I’ve been suffering from Kirkman fatigue as of late but Thief of Thieves #1 with Nick Spencer looks promising.
From Image:
Conrad Paulson lives a secret double life as master thief Redmond. There is nothing he can’t steal, nothing he can’t have… except for the life he left behind. Now, with a grown son he hardly knows, and an ex-wife he never stopped loving, Conrad must try to piece together what’s left of his life, before the FBI finally catch up to him… but it appears they are the least of his worries.
Sound interesting? 2.99 is the magic number!
The preview to Marvel Comics Fantastic Four Season One looked good to me but I’m always ready for a new take on the FF. With a free digital copy accompanying the hardcover book you might as well get both!
And last but most certainly not least Zenoscope has the super goofy Spike TV’s 1000 Ways to Die. Based on an absurd cable TV show about (mostly) morons accidently ending their lives in ways that seem so ridiculous they’ve got to be scripted. I know if I turn this on I won’t be able to change the channel.
That’s it this week. If you’ve got any tips about sales or just want to rant about my picks feel free to drop me a line: ken at bigshinyrobot dot com
