Since the beginning of DC's The New 52, reader's have wanted to know about the first meeting between The Dark Knight and The Big S. Sure, we've seen them fighting side-by-side in the pages of Justice League, but what was it like when a normal man fighting the worst Gotham City had to offer finally came face-to-face with a god among men? Find out this week in Batman/Superman #1 by the astonishing creative team of Greg Pak--this is Pak's first work for DC--and Jae Lee. As you might've noticed, this book takes place in the early days of The New 52, so new readers will be able to pick the book up without any need for background, and seasoned readers will be able to enjoy it that much more. You won't want to miss this stunning tale of heroics. Then, the fan-favorite character from Blackest Night gets his very own (and no one else can be in it!) book this week with the release of Larfleeze #1 by Keith Giffen and Scott Kolins. No longer content with sharing the pages of Threshold, Larfleeze is setting out on his own to claim everything as his, but along the way, he meets Laord of the Hunt, a cosmic being that thinks all living things are his to, well, hunt. The Orange Lantern doesn't like that one bit! Other great titles from DC include Justice League #21, Aquaman #21, Injustice: Gods Among Us #6, Superman #21, and more!
After last week's universe shattering conclusion to Age of Ultron, Hank Pym must make a choice that will determine his past, present and future in Age of Ultron #10AI by Mark Waid and Andre Araujo. Pym is seeking redemption after the events of AoU, and by the time this issue is over, things will never be the same for him again in the Marvel Universe. In Brian Wood and Olivier Coipel's X-Men #2, the institute is on lockdown. Bad guys and good guys alike are trapped inside the school. And with John Sublime, one of the X-Men's scariest villains, fearing the return of Arkea, what hope do the X-Men have of stopping her? Don't miss other great Marvel titles including Wolverine #5, Nova #5, Guardians of the Galaxy #4, and more!
Hard-boiled writer Greg Rucka and artist Michael Lark team up with Image Comics this week to bring readers Lazarus #1. In a dystopian future, the world is controlled by a handful of Families. These Families have all the power, and those that work for the Family and provide for the Family are taken care of. Those that don't help or are directly against the Families are nothing more than human trash to be swept aside. Within each family, one member is chosen to be the best of the best, and this person is known as their Lazarus. In this story, Family Carlyle's chosen Lazarus is Forever, and you don't want to get in her way. Fans of Criminal, Revival, and other crime fiction will want to check this book out. Some other great Image titles this week include Bounce #2 and Jupiters Legacy #2.
Dynamite Entertainment, writer Andy Diggle and artist Aaron Campbell present Uncanny #1, a new ongoing series. Weaver is special. He has the ability to steal any person's skills, memories, abilities and expertise for a limited time--kind of like he stayed at a Holiday Inn Express. With this uncanny power, Weaver could do a lot to help the world, but being a con-man, professional gambler and thief for-hire makes him solely focused on helping himself. Or he was until he became caught up in a game of intrigue that spread the glob with rules that were ever-changing. If you're looking for something new, give this comic a chance.
