NEW COMICS WEDNESDAY- DECEMBER 2nd

Lots of first issues, all at once.
Blackest Night continues with 2 more mini-series, one for Flash and one for Wonder Woman. Both have more than a few deaths in their pasts and at least one major zombie bad-guy each.

The JSA spins off a 2nd series(it worked so well for JLA), seems like the younger heroes don't want to play with the "old" boys anymore.

The big book of the week is Seige Cabal, the lead-in to the Seige epic that will bring the big guns of the Marvel Universe back together. Only Thor, Cap and Iron Man united can hope to take down Osborn. The only one missing from this Avengers reunion is the big green guy.

Hulk is busy however in his own big crossover event as the Fall of the Hulks Alpha issue arrives the same day. Maybe the plan is to connect the two events at the end.

Marvels annual tradition of weekly What If?'s starts off with an alternate look at the Secret Invasion.

Jonah Hex hits 50,(I'd say he looks good for his age, but he's never looked good).

Hey look, the regular Thor comic is back, continuing from the story JMS set up in the Special this week and tying into the events of the Seige.

NEW COMICS WEDNESDAY- NOVEMBER 25th

DC gets a little heavy with the Blackest Night this week as an issue of Green Lantern arrives with Blackest Night #5 and Justice League #39(the last 2 are both ring-bearing comics).
Powers #1 is the latest relaunch of the eternally late comic (I don't see why Bendis even cares about this one anymore with all his huge Marvel projects).
And speaking of late comics...the J.M.S. Thor storyline finally wraps up in the Thor giant-size Finale #1,(why do they bother with the #1 on there? It's the END of the story guys).

The first volume of Chew, the story of the detective who eats his clues, arrives this week, along with the first issue of the next storyline. This one has been the surprise hit of the year, so get 'em while they last.

Hey the Image guys(all except Jim Lee) all decided to get together and do a team-up comic. Considering how long it took most of them to get a single issue of each of their own books out...Any bets on when(or IF) the last issue of this 6-issue mini-series will ever show up.
But the top story of the week is, Will Archie be happier with Betty than he was with Veronica? Find out in Archie #603, the 4th part of the Archie's Future, storyline.

NEW COMICS WEDNESDAY- NOVEMBER 18th

A pretty solid week with a few new things to mention.
Marvel continues their space epic with The Realm Of Kings, the lead-in issue and the first issue of the Inhumans mini both arrive this week.
The Black Knight sounds like a one-shot detailing the origin of the sword wielding Avenger, originally presented as an on-line digital comic.
Speaking of on-line comics, Joss Whedon's DR. Horrible, makes it to the printed page(with 3 covers no less). This one will obviously sell to all the Buffy buyers out there.
The 80 page DC specials continue with the Justice Society. The JLA 80pg sold quick and this one should too, with a great line-up of writers and artists handling 7 small stories around a theme of "lets explore the mansion headquarters".
Another zombie book starts this week, but Wildstorm was smart enough to send out review copies to the stores, so I can say that Victorian Undead is a great read. I thought from advance copy (and the cover image)that it was going to be a fun silly story about an undead Sherlock Holmes solving cases, but what I got to read was actually a very well scripted and nicely illustrated detective story involving the dead coming back to life( and some rather diabolical automatons) in Victorian England. Give this one a second look and don't dismiss it because of the cover.
