Comics You Should Buy-2/13/13

Not a huge week this week, but there's some good stuff. Let's get to it!

Katana #1: From the pages of Birds of Prey and Justice League of America #1!!! Very interested in this take on one of my favorite Outsiders.

The Bionic Man vs The Bionic Woman #2: The first issue was PHENOMENOL!!!! Just wait until you see what happens next!

The Bionic Man #16: As long as we're on the subject of bionics......this book is always a great read.

Secret Avengers #1: This has my favorite line up of Avengers to date. And with Nick Spencer writing, I'm sure this is going to be really good!

Batman #17: Death of the Family concludes!!!! Snyder & Capullo's run has been amazing, and this issue is no exception. This issue is NOT TO BE MISSED!!!

NEXT WEEK:

KNOWING IS HALF THE BATTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!

New Comics You Should Buy-1/23/13

January is a 5 Wednesday month, and this is probably considered the "light" week. But, there are by NO MEANS a shortage of awesome comics to read. Here's what I recommend you pick up this week if you like awesome things:

 THE ANSWER #1: This book is AWESOME!!!!! Creator Mike Norton struck it big with BattlePug, I'm guessing this is going to be just popular, if not MORE SO!!

THE LONE RANGER #12: Month in, month out, one of the consistently BEST comics out there!

 MASKS #3: This book is surprisingly great! I love these characters, so I was bound to like it, but I had no idea it would be this much fun, and with such a great mood.

 THE BIONIC WOMAN #7: If only the TV series from a few years ago would've been done in this format. Awesomely entertaining book, that is a lot of fun to read.

 AVENGERS #3: LOVE LOVE LOVE this book!!!

 CASTLE #2: Last issue, there was a pretty awesome mystery set up. I can't wait to see where this goes. And, art by Robert Atkins, which is awesome!!

 COBRA #21: Sadly, the last issue of this fantastic series. BUT, it returns in April with a brand-new title(The Cobra Files)with the same awesome creative team!

UNCANNY AVENGERS #3: There is some CRAZY shit that goes down this issue. CRAZY!!

STAR TREK: COUNTDOWN TO DARKNESS #1: The prequel series to this summer's Star Trek Into Darkness. PEOPLE!!! THINGS HAPPEN!!!! This is a GREAT book!!!

-Whew! That's quite a pile of awesome comics. AND there's lots more that I didn't have room to mention. As always, if it's New Comics Day, I'll be at Challengers Comics, so if you're in Chicago you'd better stop by and say hello!!!

NEXT WEEK: I got the FEVAH....and the only preSCIPTION....is more He-Man!!!

The List!!!...for Wednesday, January 16th

WOW!!! What an incredible week for awesome comics!!...and, Saga's out this week too. Here's a few that I would HIGHLY recommend....

Bionic Man vs. Bionic Woman #1: Let's start things off with a bang. This first issue is FANTASTIC!!! And, while we don't quite get the battle we all want to see in this first issue, it's a great opening chapter of this mini series.

Mars Attacks The REAL Ghostbusters: Wow. I really can't believe that Sony let IDW do this. But, I'm super glad they did. It's great, buy it!

Savage Wolverine #1: Wolverine by Frank Cho. That pretty much says it all. Oh, and Shanna the She-Devil.

All-New X-Men #6: I can't WAIT to see what happens next!!!

Captain America #3: Old Cap vs. An alien from Jabba the Hutt's Palace!

Batgirl #16: Death of the Family tie-in!! Somebody's getting married!

Avengers Assembled #11: Really loving this book since the creative team shift

The Black Beetle #1: This is a FANTASTIC pulp hero action comic! Loads of fun!!!

Batman #16: Death of the Family!!!

GI Joe #21: NOT a silent issue!!! But, sadly, this is the end of the road for this GI Joe series. But, you can't keep a good counter terrorist unit down, right?

-Again, TONS of good stuff coming out this week. If you're in Chicago, you better stop by Challengers, cause I'll be there selling all these comics and MORE!!! Have a great Wednesday, everybody. Stay Electrifying!

The List-December 19, 2012

What a HUGE week for comics!!!! It's almost like 2 weeks combined into one, because almost NOTHING is shipping next week on the 26th(except the all ready spoiled Amazing Spider-Man #700). Anyway, here's just a FEW of the comics that I recommend picking up this week:

All New X-Men #4-I never imagined in a million years that this book would be as good as it has been.

Bionic Woman #6-THIS BOOK IS WAY BETTER THAN IT SHOULD BE!!!!

Avengers #2-A whole shit ton of people show up!!!! And it's awesome!!!

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe #5-He-Man VERSUS Battle Cat!!!!!

Snake Eyes/Storm Shadow #20-THINGS ARE HEATING UP as the series is winding down!!

MacGyver: The Fugitive Gauntlet #3-I love this series so much!!!Buy it. Read it. Repeat. 

-There you have it!! Again, LOTS of great stuff to buy this week and isn't it a perfect time to buy a pile of comics and read them? A lot of you will be traveling, and that's the perfect time to read and not have to make awkward conversation with the weird person next to you! If you're in Chicago, I'll see you tomorrow at Challengers!!!
