Dr. No's New Release Comics - Wednesday, January 7, 2015

Marvel's bringing their A-game (and several other letters of the alphabet) this week with a few new series to start 2015 off right and some classics you know and love. First up, a familiar face returns to prime time in Ant-Man #1 by Nick Spencer and Ramon Rosanas. Scott Lang has been through a lot: prison, death, loss of a daughter, and more. So when the Superior Iron Man offers him an opportunity to don the mantle of Ant-Man once again, Lang can't possibly pass it up. If bug related super heroes are your thing, don't miss Amazing Spider-Man #12 by  Dan Slott and Giuseppe Camuncoli. As Spider-Verse continues, a new Spider-Character is revealed, and the first major battle between the Spiders and their hunters is waged.

If bugs aren't your thing, maybe Marvel's animal themed heroes are for you! One of its other new series hitting shelves this week is The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #1 by Ryan North and Erica Henderson. Squirrel Girl has taken on the perils of babysitting and fought and won against Wolverine, Deadpool, Dr. Doom, and Thanos. But now she must face a new challenge: college! If you're looking for a fun and funny book that isn't full of gloom and doom, Squirrel Girl is for you!

Check out the rest of the highlights and complete list of this week's releases after the break.

After that, all of DC's weekly books shuffled their spots up a bit, so it was nice to see them move up the list. Other notable titles on this week's Top 10 include All New Miracleman Annual #1 that features a lost Grant Morrison story brought to life by Joe Quesada. And we have the crossover no one expected in Star Trek/Planet of the Apes: The Primate Directive #1. Let us know if your favorite book made the list over at our Facebook page and Twitter.
