Set sonic screwdrivers to fun this Wednesday, May 30

Fans of two of the most popular science-fiction properties around should rejoice this week with the release of IDW's long-awaited crossover series Star Trek: The Next Generation/Doctor Who: Assimilation2 #1! The Federation's most feared enemy, the Borg, and the Doctor's most hated baddies, the Cybermen,  form a horrible alliance that promises to make trouble at a cosmic level. The Doctor and his companions join forces with Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the USS Enterprise's crew for an adventure that will span all of space and time. If you like either of these series, you will want to give this book a look. Writers Scott and David Tipton (who recently brought you Star Trek: Infestation) and artist J.K. Woodward (popular for his painted art) bring this amazing adventure to life.

The final book in DC's New 52 "Second Wave" hits shelves this week, and that book is Ravagers #1 by Howard Mackie and Ian Churchill! Spinning out of 'The Culling' storyline from Teen Titans, Legion Lost, and Superboy, this new series stars Fairchild, brother/sister duo Thunder and Lightning, Ridge, Terra, and, in his first DC 52 appearance, Beast Boy! The new team is wanted dead, no matter the cost, and Rose Wilson and Warblade are the two to get the job done. Then check out Animal Man Annual #1 by Jeff Lemire and Timothy Green. This stand alone issue will reveal the detailed history of The Red, The Green, and The Rot and the struggle between these forces that fuel Animal Man, Swamp Thing, and Beast Boy.  And 'Night of the Owls' continues in Batman Annual #1 with the introduction (well, the second introduction) of Mr. Freeze. In this issue, Scott Snyder reveals the connection between Freeze and the Court of Owls; friends or foes? Find out!

The race to find Hope Summers continues this week in a couple of Avengers vs. X-Men tie-in books. First up, Wolverine and the X-Men #11 continues Scott Summer's visit to the Jean Grey School in hopes of recruiting Wolverine's team to his side. And don't miss the match up between Red Hulk and Iceman! Occupy the Jean Grey School continues in X-Men Legacy #267 as the Avengers She-Hulk, Falcon, and Moon Knight attempt to secure the school grounds. However, Rogue and her team of X-Men won't stand for this intrusion.

Dark Horse's Avatar, The Last Airbender: The Promise Part 2 arrives this week. Fire Lord Zuko and Earth King Kuei continue their dispute over the presence of Fire Nation colonies inside the Earth Nation's borders. If Aang and Katara can't broker peace between the two rulers, war may once again take hold of the world. Meanwhile, Sokka helps Toph prepare her metalbending students to stand against a rival school of firebenders.

Incorporate these great new comics this Wednesday, May 23

Grant Morrison returns this week with the release of Batman Incorporated #1, with art by Chris Burnham. Some of you may remember this title from the pre-New 52 era of DC Comics, and Morrison has not forgotten either. The new series picks up were the first volume of the story ended, but new readers will be happy to know that Morrison has taken special care in making it accesible to everyone. Bruce Wayne has outed himself as Batman's backer, and Batman Inc. was formed to provide support for other Bat-family heroes across the globe. Even with the extra help, Batman and Robin still have their hands full as they track down the assassin known as Goatboy. And Leviathan's master plan is finally revealed! If that is not enough Batman, the Night of the Owls storyline continues in All Star Western #9 and Batman, The Dark Knight #1.

Anyone looking for a new series should look no further than Matt Kindt's newest book Mind MGMT #1. Meru is a young writer trying to find the next big thing to write about. That is when she decides to investigate a commercial flight and its passengers who all shared a very weird experience: every person on the flight lost their memories. While tracking down passengers and digging deeper and deeper into the mystery, Meru uncovers the existence of the top-secret Mind Management program. Things only get crazier from there as she encounters weaponized psychics, talking dolphins, and more. You don't wont to miss this book!

Marvel has several new comics of note this week as well. The battle to save humankind or mutantkind continues in the Avengers vs. X-Men tie-in issue Secret Avengers #27. Captain Marvel is reborn and aims to unite the Kree once again, but he, with the help of Ms. Marvel and The Protector, must face the Avengers to achieve his goal. In Amazing Spider-Man #686, the Ends of the Earth storyline continues as the Earth faces, well, the end! And don't miss Astonishing X-Men #50 with its surprise ending that may lead to wedding bells for one of the team's members.

The books above are only a taste of all the great titles hitting shelves this Wednesday, so check out the full release list below. We look forward to seeing you!

Bagged Book Prices Are on the Back

If you see a bagged and boarded book book on the shelves of Dr. No's, or if you're checking our large inventory of back issue books, don't forget that we have price tags on the back of every one of those books. We don't want to surprise anyone, so we will always try to point out that price tag to our customers at the register prior to ringing up the sale.

Every now and then, though, someone might accidentally remove a price tag; if you do see a book that no longer has its price tag, just let us know and we'll look up the price in our POS system and make a new tag for that book right away!

Reading is Fun!

Here at Dr. No's we love comic book readers. We continually strive to maintain the largest and most diverse stock of new comics, collected editions, and out of print books, because we want all of you to be able to buy, read, and enjoy your comics.

Recently, the comics market has seen a number of almost-instant sellouts--first printings of books like Thief of Thieves #1, Saga #1, Batman Beyond #1, Mind the Gap #1, recent issues of Walking Dead--all of these are books that have commanded higher prices in the secondary market. As a result, we are often visited by eBay sellers who hope to buy our entire inventory of these titles at cover price so as to sell them for much more on eBay. Unfortunately, that would mean that our readers, who want a copy of the book to enjoy the story and add to their personal collections, would be unable to get copies of these books.

As a result, we at Dr. No's have for many years implemented a policy on these hot books that customers are limited to one copy at cover price (or, in the case of books with multiple covers, one of each cover version at cover price). This policy is designed to ensure that our selection of books are available to the largest possible number of readers. If a customer stillwants to buy multiples in order to sell the books on eBay, we may price additional copies at a higher price. This is done to make it possible for you, our reader clientele, to find the books that you want without having to buy them at a high price from the person who just bought all of them from us.

The prevalence of eBay (and the existence of websites that regularly report on hot recent releases selling for high prices within days or weeks of release) means that secondary market sellers often show up en masse within days of one another, all searching for the same hot books, and all hoping to buy multiple copies at cover price so that the same copies can be sold for 5, 10, or even 25 times the cover price on eBay. To allow one speculator to buy all those copies wouldn't be fair to our large base of customers who want a copy of these books to read and enjoy--and we appreciate our reader base too much to support the secondary market speculators over the readers.

So remember--we are committed to keep these books available for our reading audience whenever possible. Not only will we work to get you a cover-price copy for your personal enjoyment, but we also (in the case of sold-out books) constantly strive to keep new printings on the shelves to make it easy for you to keep up with your favorite storylines--and try some new books as well!

New comics bring the pain this Wednesday, May 16


Round 4 of Marvel's no-holds-barred throwdown occurs this week in Avengers vs. X-Men #4! Not only does the fighting continue, it spreads across the world as Avenger and X-Man clash in the Savage Lands, Wakanda, Tabula Rasa, and anywhere else they find each other. While the two groups fight, Hope sets out to enlist Wolverine's help with what is sure to be a suicide mission. And don't forget, the Secret Avengers team is still in space and about to face the Phoenix head-on. Then, check out AvX VS #2 which will highlight the one-on-one fights of Spider-Man vs Colossus and Captain America vs Gambit. Of course, there will be a few tie-in issues to keep an eye out for: Avengers #26, Avengers Academy #30, and Uncanny X-Men #12.

Gotham City is under attack by a group older than the city itself, the Court of Owls. Nightwing's last encounter with The Talon didn't go so well, and he is up against another assassin in Nightwing #9 that will test him all over again. The last person anyone thought would come to Batman's aid does just that in Red Hood and the Outlaws #9. Jason, Koriand'r, and Roy take on a task that will put them face-to-face with Mr. Freeze. Things only get weirder when Catwoman and Spark are given the job of defending The Penguin against the Talon assassins in Catwoman #9. If that wasn't enough, join Black Canary, Batgirl, Katana, and Poison Ivy as they risk everything to protect the city from the Court of Owls in Birds of Prey #9.

A couple of other books that are worth checking out are Saga #3 by Brian K. Vaughan (creator of Y The Last Man), Secret Service #2 by Mark Millar and Dave Gibbons, Hell Yeah #3, and Adventure Time #4. While there are many other great titles coming out this week (as you can see in the list below), those mentioned above are some of my personal favorites.

Check out of this week's new comics Wednesday, May 9

I hope everyone has recovered from Free Comic Book Day because the hits keep coming this week!

The all-out brawl between the X-Men and Avengers continues this week in several tie-in issues. First up, New Avengers #26 reveals the secret history of the Phoenix through the book of dead Iron Fists. Marvel promises this to be one of the most important chapters in the AvX story. Then Cyclops visits the Jean Grey School attempting to recrute Wolverine to fight against the Avengers in Wolverine and the X-Men #10.  That's not all for the Jean Grey School as the Avengers' She-Hulk, Falcon, and Moon Knight move in to secure the campus, but Rogue and her team might have something to say about that.

After a long break, Marvel is brining back the Altered-Reality Monitoring and Operational Response agency (A.R.M.O.R.) in Marvel Zombies Destroy #1, by Frank Marraffino and Mirco Pierfederici. This time, the team is sent to rescue a reality where WWII was won by Nazis and their zombies! Everybody hates Nazi zombies. Join Howard the Duck, Dum Dum Dugan, and Ducky's Dozen as they take out the zombie trash.

Gotham's elite have been targeted by the Court of Owls in DC's Night of the Owls storyline, and it is up  to the Batfamily to save the people on the Court's hitlist. In Batgirl #9, Barbara comes face to face with the Court's assassins, the Talons, as she attempts to save the life of her father, Commissioner Gordon. Then, the Batcave has been compromised in Batman #9, and Batman stands against the endless onslaught of Talons. With Batman fighting for his and Pennyworth's life, Robin is left alone to battle the Talon alone in Batman and Robin #9. If you are just getting into the Night of the Owls, a great way to catch up would be the Batman HC: Night of the Owls, which collects the first six-issue story that started it all.

Spinning from last year's wonderful graphic novel by Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Oeming, Takio #1 is an all-ages superhero adventure starring two sisters, Taki and Olivia, with super powers. As the only two people with powers, they have no choice but to become the superheroes the world needs. But is the world ready for them? Are they ready for the world? This is a great read that can be enjoyed by the young and young-at-heart.

The books above and those listed below will be available this Wednesday, May 9th!
