Wednesday is here again, and it’s the first one of the year, which means a new week and year for new comics (ANIMOSITY, CODA & UNNATURAL). If you are like me, you may still have a stack of comics that haven’t been read from last week, but how can anyone fault us for reading. Here is a list of books I will be picking up at my local comic shop.
Like many readers I try to budget my purchases, which can become difficult when there are so many quality books being published each week. So here are 5 titles to consider picking up this week.
ANIMOSITY #18 – $3.99
Aftershock Comics – Marguerite Bennett, Rafael De Latorre, Rob Schwager, Marshall Dillon
What has been seen cannot be unseen. What has been known cannot be unknown. The survivors gaze upon a changed world of grief, rage, love, and remorse-a world where, win or lose, they will forfeit the blissful ignorance they once held dear.
UNNATURAL #6 – $3.99
Image Comics – Mirka Andolfo, Gianluca Papi, Fabio Amelia, Babs Tarr
While she continues to be hunted, Leslie finally meets Carol. But this meeting leads to new questions and doubts in a spiral of uncertainties, pain, and bad memories. Will Leslie be able to get up again? As more details of the grim-and unsettlingly familiar-scenario created by MIRKA ANDOLFO emerge, Leslie’s tale of emancipation and self-discovery reaches a turning point.
WINTER SOLDIER #2 – $3.99
Marvel Comics – Kyle Higgins, Rod Reis
As Bucky works to help others find the redemption that he found, Hydra takes issue with his new initiative…and sends a young killer to rectify the situation. Introducing R.J., teenage assassin extraordinaire, who’s been sent to kill the man he’s been modeled after: the Winter Soldier.
