This Week's Essential Comics: 4/28/14

Black Science

Southern Bastards

Amazing Spider-Man

Maybe Silver Surfer, not much interesting from DC for me this week.

That Peter looks so horrible...

@knightofsteel: oh dang I totally forgot about the new serenity issue

DC COMICS

- Batman Eternal #4, $2.99

- Green Lantern New Guardians Annual #2, $4.99

MARVEL COMICS

- Uncanny Avengers Annual #1 (Art Adams Regular Cover), $4.99

.

This is the last comic for Uncanny Avengers. If it does not wow me, I am pulling it off my pull list.

My picks for this week:

Amazing Spider-Man #1
All-New X-Men #26 (finally, someone mentioned it)
Hulk #2

HA! :)

Seriously,though

This Spidey thingy,Batman Eternal and X-Men.

Forever Evil still isn't over?

Southern Bastards #1

Amazing Spiderman #1

Rai #1

Well, I think it's pretty damn obvious that Amazing Spider-Man #1 is the best pick of the week.

Looking at the previous posts, apparently there's a new Conan book being put out by Dark Horse that slipped past my radar. Someone is in trouble at the comic book store. I will be picking up that Vertigo book, I think a quarterly set up is a fantastic idea. The Amazing Spider-Man I will be getting too. Looks a bit important.

ASM 1

Rai 1

Shadowman End of Times 1

Flash Annual 3

Batwoman Annual 1

@micah: Right?! That'd be great!

• Blackout
• Captain Midnight
• Rai
• Shadowman: End Times

All-New X-Men & Amazing Spider-Man for me. Rai looks awesome, but I'll trade wait for it.

I know delays are inevitable but is it me or are there more and more comics being delayed lately. I was expecting Wake #8, Nightwing #30 and a few others this week. I have also got tired of waiting for the next issue of Superman Unchained #7 (issue 8 has been delayed so long that it has now been re-solicited). The one thing I am noticing is that all these are DC. I can almost accept delays with Image or one of the smaller publishers but for DC to be this far off track is just embarrassing. It's no wonder my DC pull list has dwindled so much this last year.

This might've been answered before but if I'm not reading anything Valiant is picking up Rai a good idea? I've been wanting to get into something Valiant for a while and Rai seems really interesting.

• Black Science
• New Avengers
• Silver Surfer

Black Science, New Avengers & Silver Surfer.

• Avengers A.I. #12
• FE Aftermath: Batman vs. Bane #1
• Uncanny Avengers Annual #1
• X-Force #4

Might grab ANXM, but probably not

The Flash, nothing else really interests me.

ASM #1

Silver Surfer #2

Flash Annual #3

Black Science #6

Deadly Class #4

Captain Midnight #10

King Conan the Conqueror #3

Vertigo Quarterly Cyan #1

Judge Dredd Mega-City Two #4

Black Science #6

Deadly Class #4

Southern Bastards #1

Umbral #6

Atomic Robo Knights Golden Circle #1

Rai #1

Shadowman End Times #1

And EVERYONE should pick up Zero #1 (Image Firsts Edition) for a buck...

Can't wait for my pre order of Rai to come in. I want to hold off on getting Batman vs Bane since I haven't even started Forever Evil yet.

I follow these books:

Flash (p.s. rogues rebellion was awesome)

Thor

New Avengers

Avengers

@rideaspacecowboy: I think I'll check that out. Powerful review.

Just Batgirl Annual #2 for me this week.

I would also love to get the Pretty Deadly Vol. 1 trade!

@captainhoopla: If you haven't already given it a try, pick up the trade for Rat Queens. It's honestly one of the best things I've read in a while. Both the characters and comedy are on point.

Anyway, out of these the only comic I'll be picking up is Amazing Spider-man but since I'm reading Superior through trades, it'll be a bit until I get around to it. Might pick up Rai somewhere down the line if it continues to get praise.

@gettogaara: Just read the first issue of Rat Queens for free on Comixology. Definitely going to buy the first trade now. It was excellent.
