New Release Comics - Wednesday, May 20

Last week, Marvel introduce readers to Battleword. This planet of conflict is what happened when the regular Marvel Universe collided with the Ultimate Marvel Universe. Of course, with a name like that, you'd expect a lot of fighting. So much so that Marvel needed Secret Wars: Battleworld #1 by Joshua Williamson, Ed Brisson, Mike Henderson and Scott Hepburn. This is the book you want if you're craving all the action that couldn't fit in the pages of Secret Wars. This issue features the hunt for a Dr. Strange-possessed Punisher and the coalition of M.O.D.O.K.s! But that's not the only Secret Wars inspired book this week.

In A-Force #1 by C. Willow Wilson, Marguerite Bennett and Jorge Molina, the mighty women of Marvel join forces to protect a secluded island nation on Battleworld. These amazing heroes will stop at nothing to protect what remains of their world. Then there's Spider-Verse #1 by Mike Costa and Andre Arujo. The heroes of the Spider-Verse event are brought back together on Battleworld. They just can't catch a break. But wait, there's more! Planet Hulk #1 by Sam Humphries, Greg Pak, Marc Lamin and Takeshi Miyagawa tells the story of a battle-hardened gladiator by the name of Steve Rogers in a forbidden zone full of Hulks! Smash! Then, if you can loosen your kung-fu grip on those other books, you'll want to check out Master of Kung Fu #1 by Haden Blackman and Dalibor Talajic. Shang-Chi is a drunken, drop out, failure in the world of K'UN LUN, but that doesn't mean he can't hold his own in a world populated by martial arts masters.

But what about the Ultimate Universe you ask? Well, those characters will show up in some of the previously mentioned tie-in books, but you can also witness the end of their world in this week's Ultimate End #1 by Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley. The power house creative that brought you the breakthrough Ultimate book is back to bring the house down. Miles Morales and the other Ultimate heroes face the end of their world. Sacrifices will be made. Heroes will be lost. But will it all count for anything? The end of the Ultimate U starts here.

The penultimate issue of DC's big Convergence event arrives this week! In Convergence #7 by Jeff King, Scott Lobdell and Aaron Lopresti, the unified forces of the heroes of Earth 2, Kingdom Come, The Titans, and (the not so heroic) Parallax stand off against Deimos. Even with a team up like that, they still might not stand a chance. Luckily for them, the heroes of the New 52 will join the fight as well! Other Convergence titles this week include: Convergence: Adventures of Superman #2Convergence: Batman & The Outsiders #2Convergence: Flash #2Convergence: Green Lantern Corps #2Convergence: Hawkman #2Convergence: Justice League of America #2Convergence: New Teen Titans #2Convergence: Superboy & The Legion #2Convergence: Swamp Thing #2, and Convergence: Wonder Woman #2!

Here's a complete list of Wednesday, May 20's releases:

New Release Comics - May 13, 2015

Sometimes the world of science really does seem like magic. Magnets for example. We all know how they work, but it doesn't make it any less cool or mystical. This week's new Image title Mythic #1 by Phil Hester and John McCrea takes this idea a step further. In the world of Mythic, science is a lie. It is simply a tool to pacify the masses. Magic is what really powers everything. A special team has been chosen to make sure the magic world keeps turning without all the normal people knowing it even exists. This is that team's story. And the best part is, Image is bringing this new book to readers for the low price of $1.99 to kick things off. Give it a shot.

As Marcus explains, the series is " a futuristic SF adventure that follows a squadron of young, gifted aviators who are forced to become Earth's last line of defense against a menacing race of artificially intelligent villains bent on destroying civilization."

FCBD 2015 Guest Highlight: Andy Runton

Free Comic Book Day 2015 is coming up in a few short days on May 2, 2015! This is an all day event where fans new and old can come by Dr. No's Comics and Games to pick out a couple FCBD books made specifically for this special day. During the event, Dr. No's is hosting signings with several talented guests from 12pm-2pm. Leading up to FCBD, we are going to post a Guest Highlight of each creator.
While you're at the store tomorrow for Free Comic Book Day, say hello to Andy Runton between 12pm (noon) to 2pm. Andy is the creator of the succesful, charming, and beloved series Owly. An all age story about Owly the owl. The comic has won multiple awards, including an Eisner Award for "Best Publication for a Younger Audience." The most amazing part of the comic is Andy's ability to tell the story of Owly and friends without using words. He relies on a creative mixture of symbols, icons, and expressions, making it accessible to young and young-at-heart readers alike. We're very happy to have Andy on hand tomorrow!
