Definitely something to check out. “Stellar was taken as a child and transformed into the ultimate weapon, one that would end an intergalactic war. She succeeded…at everything except finding peace.

A new Hawkman series spinning out of DARK NIGHTS: METAL. I like Hawkman best when he’s a little more science fiction-y and a little less reincarnation-y. Maybe I just have a really sore spot for the 80’s FLASH GORDON movie. “Spinning out of the events of DARK NIGHTS: METAL, Carter Hall returns to the DC Universe. An explorer of the ancient and unknown, Hawkman finds himself embroiled in a long-standing mission to discover the true purpose of his many reincarnations. Carter races around the globe trying to piece together an ancient prophecy, but will he be able to face down his past lives lurking around every corner?” Buy It Now Related shopping tags: HAWKMAN

This looks like a fun comic series. “The Angels are back, baby. -The original Angels, Jill, Kelly and Sabrina. Travel back to the swingin’ 70s, and revisit the butt-kicking, crime-fighting, mold-breaking lady detectives who took 70s TV by storm, ready to do the same to comics 40 years later. Break out your bell-bottoms, feather your hair, and jump back to a era of peanut-farmer presidents, gargantuan gas-guzzlers and foxy female detectives… for a globe-trotting adventure that’s simply too big and epic for the 70s-era boob tube. Written by elderly Eisner winner and solicitation-writing former-superstar John Layman, and with art by his scrappy but lovable youngster pal, Joe Eisma. This is one comic you DON’T DARE TO MISS.” Buy It Now […]

This is not the same Wasp that will be in the second MCU movie, so don’t get confused. It’s not confusing at all. Just sit back and enjoy the story from Mark Waid. Cool? Cool. “A NEW SERIES FROM MARK WAID and JAVIER GARRON. Wasp was just trying to help Ant-Man get home to Earth to see his daughter…but a little problem got in the way. Very little. Subatomic, in fact, as Scott Lang was lost in the vast spaces between atoms. Now, Nadia is his only hope of rescue…if only he would listen long enough for her to save them. From master storyteller Mark Waid (CAPTAIN AMERICA, CHAMPIONS) and Marvel Young Gun artist Javier Garrón (SECRET WARRIORS, STAR-LORD) comes […]

Here’s the first mini-series from Mark Millar under his new contract with Netflix for his Millarworld properties. Here we go. Anticipation is high. It begins. “We live in a world where we’ve never seen a monster, and The Magic Order is the reason we sleep safely in our beds. Magic meets the mob in THE MAGIC ORDER, as five families of magicians-sworn to protect our world for generations-must battle an enemy who’s picking them off one by one. By day, they live among us as our neighbors, friends, and co-workers, but by night, they are the sorcerers, magicians, and wizards that protect us from the forces of darkness…unless the darkness gets them first. MARK MILLAR’s first NETFLIX comic book, drawn […]

A nice-looking little mini that ties into video game and comic book canon. Parlaying off the success of a theatrical release, no doubt. “Trinity is on high alert-they know Lara Croft is coming and now, under the shrewd command of a new officer, they’re ready for any surprises, but Lara is steadfast in her quest to uncover their secrets. Though typically equally prepared, this time Lara may just find herself one step behind. Perfect for new and existing Tomb Raider fans. Artist Phillip Sevy returns to Tomb Raider. ‘Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly have done a wonderful job tying this comic book in with the Tomb Raider canon from the video games and previous Dark Horse comic series.’ -AiPT.” Buy […]
