NEW COMICS WEDNESDAY - MAY 19th

Well, the Dark age of the Avengers came to a close this week, so now the new Heroic Age can begin. But why does it have to begin all at once?
Avengers #1 really needs no explanation, but most of the others do. Age of Heroes seems to be an anthology of short stories by Busiek, dealing with the heroes returning to their "legal" vigilante status. Atlas #1 is the relaunch of the great Agents of Atlas title, and Marvel is hoping restarting it now will pull in more readers. Avengers Assemble is a handbook, one-shot issue. Enter the Heroic Age is another one-shot featuring 5 short intro stories leading into new on-going titles.
Marvel also has some more "girl" comics, as Pepper Potts gets a whole issue to herself in Rescue #1, and Galacta, the daughter of the planet eater gets her own book too.
Meanwhile DC starts off a few great titles too with Zatanna #1, and the newest version of the Legion of Superheroes. Also, DC Legacies looks really good as we witness the history of the DC universe through the origins of its heroes, starting with the mystery men of the '40's.
