Wednesday is here again, which means a new week for new comics (CURSE WORDS & THE PLOT). 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.
THE PLOT #3 – $3.99
Vault Comics – Tim Daniel, Michael Moreci, Josh Hixson, Jordan Boyd, Jim Campbell
A startling revelation leaves the nascent Blaine family unit shaken. Reese and Chase both experience ominous visions.
INVISIBLE KINGDOM #7 – $3.99
Dark Horse Comics – G. Willow Wilson, Christian Ward
The Sundog has been captured by pirates, with Grix and the crew at the mercy of its black-hearted captain Turo. When a disabled Lux ship is found stranded in the junk rings, it becomes the Riveters’ next target . . . and the Sundog is dragged along for the increasingly treacherous ride.
BASKETFUL OF HEADS #2 – $3.99
DC Comics – Joe Hill, Leomacs, Dan McDaid, Dave Stewart, Reiko Murakami
Hunted to the point of exhaustion, June Branch struggles to outwit and outfight the home invader coming after her. He’s armed with a .44 and a secret agenda; she’s got a thousand year-old Viking relic and no way to escape. The axe is about to fall in the topsy-turvy second chapter of the horror story with the sharpest edge in comics!
CURSE WORDS #25 – $3.99
Image Comics – Charles Soule, Ryan Browne
Friends, it’s been a hell of a ride, just a hell of a ride… and now it’s time to see how CURSE WORDS brings this ungainly wizard ship in for a landing. Will it be better than the finales for Game of Thrones, Lost, Battlestar Galactica, and M*A*S*H combined? Without a doubt. Thank you for all your support for this series over the years… we’ll see you on the next one!
SPACE RIDERS: VORTEX OF DARKNESS #1 – $3.99
Black Mask Comics – Carlos Giffoni, Alexis Ziritt
It’s been twenty years since the riders defeated the DESTROYER GOD OF EVIL and saved the galaxy. But when THE MOTHER OF ALL EVIL GODS appears and threatens to take control of every dimension and every strain of possible reality, the now cybernetically-enhanced ex-riders will come together and travel into her mind to ASSASSINATE HER SOUL!
It’s a suicidal mission into an infinite vortex of blood and death!
