What’s in the pipe this week for comics fans of all stripes?
- DC is finishing up “The Ray”, which is actually a fun reboot of the B-lister, and starting up “Saucer Country”, basically “The X-Files” with Paul Cornell writing it, so it’s probably worth a look.
- Marvel fires up “Avengers Assemble” and finally puts “X-23” to sleep, along with all the other Wolvie knockoffs.
- Image fires up “Saga”, which you might remember had a tiny controversy surrounding the breastfeeding on the cover.
- Dark Horse has the followup to the Buffy abortion issue, where we see whether or not this plotline has genuine legs or really was the cheap ploy for attention that it came off as (more on this after we read the issue) and a whole heck of a lot of “Game of Thrones” merch hitting stores.
- And IDW has a Star Trek 100=Page Spectacular that we’re looking forward to, since the “Star Trek” ongoing is easily one of their strongest books.
As always, let us know what you’re getting at the FLCS in the comments.
