Another exciting week of comics have been released and there's too much good stuff to fit in one post. I mean on debuts alone there's Hellbreak by Cullen Bunn and Brain Churilla, Southern Cross by Becky Cloonan and Andy Belanger, The Surface by Ales Kot and Langdon Foss, Howard the Duck by Chip Zdarsky and Joe Quinones and Ninjak by Matt Kindt and Clay Mann. That's a pile full of goodness but wait, there's more!
If you're looking for longer reads and sink your teeth into some incredible trade paperbacks then Image Comics has you covered with two of the best. Copperhead Vol. 1 by Jay Faerber, Scott Godlewski and Ron Riley and The Humans Vol. 1 by Keenan Keller and Tom Neely. One's a fantastic police procedural set on another planet and the latter is an amazing alternative reality where apes rule the earth but mirrors the nation's volatile post-Vietnam era of the 1970s.
Then there's the awesome on-going titles that keep getting better and better. Postal #2 by Matt Hawkins, Bryan Hill and Isaac Goodhart, Spider-Gwen #2 by Jason Latour and Javier Rodriguez, King: Flash Gordon #2 by Ben Acker and Ben Blacker, Shaft #4 by David Walker and Bilquis Evely, East of West #18 by Jonathan Hickman and Nick Dragotta, and Ms. Marvel #13 by C. Willow Wilson and Takeshi Miyagawa should be books on your pull list.
Whew! That's a lot of quality books at your fingertips. Go get'em! Happy reading!
