What better way to relax after a stressful week then settling down with a few new comic books. It may only be Wednesday, but that is the perfect time to swing by and support your local comic shop. Out this week are DARK INTERLUDE & SEA OF SORROWS.
You may already have piles or boxes of unread comics sitting at home, but should be an excuse to miss out on this weeks new books. To highlight a couple of this weeks new releases, here is my list of Top 5 Comics.
DARK INTERLUDE #1 -$3.99
Publisher – Vault Comics
Creators – Ryan O’Sullivan, Andrea Mutti, Vladimir Popov, AndWorld Designs, Ariela Kristantina
After the stunning success of Fearscape, comes A Dark Interlude, the story of-No! The only offence to literature greater than the loathsome synopsis is the sequel. I will not stand idle while some poor excuse for an editor mangles and confuses my story, which is intact, perfect, and concluded, with this derivative drivel. Mark my words, this nonsense has nothing to do with my tale. I am not in it. I do not condone it. And you, dear reader, should not buy it.
COMMANDERS IN CRISIS #2 – $3.99
Publisher – Image Comics
Creators – Steve Orlando, Davide Tinto, Francesca Carotenuto, Fabio Amelia, Fabrizio Verrocchi
The Crisis Command, last survivors of the multiverse, are faced with an impossible task: avenging the death…of an idea! DOA is EMPATHY ITSELF, and while empathy withers and dies across the world, Originator uses her abilities to bring the John Doe back for 24 hours to reveal the name of his killer!
SEA OF SORROWS #1 – $3.99
