Welcome again, true believers, to our big pile of comics hitting stands today. Looking over the list, there’s some pretty interesting stuff:
- Avenging Spider-Man #1 hits stands today, and don’t forget, this marks Marvel’s day-and-date digital project, so if it stinks, you can read it in two formats.
- Also from Marvel, finally, is a John Bryne Fantastic Four omnibus.
- Dark Horse has a hardcover of the really good “Darth Vader and the Lost Command”.
- DC has the third month of the New 52 rolling, as well as some Vertigo reissues, like “My Faith in Frankie” and “The Saga of Swamp Thing”.
- BOOM! continues to have a hilariously weird list of contrasts: they’ve got both Hellraiser comics and WordGirl hitting this week.
- And IDW has Star Trek/Legion of Superheroes, and also has a variant cover for pretty much everything it’s publishing this week. We’re pretty sure the toilet paper has variant covers over there.
And, of course, we’ve got all the rest from the small presses. Let us know what you’re picking up in the comments.
