Wednesday... the day we comic fans celebrate, yet it's also the day our wallets cower in fear. Our hobby is most certainly an expensive one and deciding how to spend our budget certainly isn't easy. Well, Comic Vine has your back. We think these issues will be worth checking out this Wednesday. Whether it's the start of something new or a new chapter in a great book, we'll happily spend our cash on these and hope you will, too.
AGE OF ULTRON #1
Brian Michael Bendis is once again going to give Marvel's heroes one helluva bad day. Everyone has feared the day Ultron would return... and that day has finally come. This ten part event will be illustrated by Bryan Hitch and definitely looks like it's worth giving an honest shot.
Feast your eyes on a preview of Marvel's next big event.
ALL-NEW X-MEN #8
I think it's safe to say all of us here at Comic Vine have been pleasantly surprised with this one. Bendis has taken a simple time travel premise -- which could have been a total mess -- and turned it into a shockingly fun and focused tale. This issue, we'll see past and present Angel team-up. That's going to be quite an awkward conversation after the events from UNCANNY X-FORCE...
Enjoy a preview of Wednesday's issue below.
GREEN ARROW #18
With just one issue, Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino have me sold on this series. The book's beautiful and kicked off an exciting new story for the Emerald Archer. This week's issue will dive into his father's secrets as well (hello there, TV crowd).
Head over to DC's website for the rest of the preview.
GREEN LANTERN #18
The next installment of Geoff Johns' final Green Lantern story! While the First Lantern continues to carry out his mission, this is a must read story for two bigger reasons: Hal Jordan and Sinestro. It looks like the spotlight will once again be placed on these two classic characters and that's something I refuse to miss.
Visit CBR for the other preview pages.
SHADOWMAN #5
This kicks off a new story for the dark part of the Valiant Universe. Jack survived his first encounter with Master Darque, but now it's time to learn all about his abilities and the legacy of the Shadowman. Written by Patrick Zircher (who also provides pencils) and Justin Jordan, this is one of Valiant's numerous stellar books.
