Top 5 Comics This Week – November 9, 2011
Point One #1
This is a perfect time to jump into the Marvel Universe. These are seven brand new stories from the fan favorite writers and artists. This collection sets the stage for all the big storylines and changes coming in 2012. From the cover, it appears the original Doctor Strange is back with a new style but is he the Sorcerer Supreme again?
Battle Scars #1
In the wake of “Fear Itself’ heroes and villains are after Army Ranger Marcus Jones. Why does this man have to power to turn the Marvel Universe upside down?
Fear Itself 7.2 Thor
During “Fear Itself” Tony Stark challenged Odin to save Earth. Did Iron Man make a deal with the devil by using the power of the King of Gods? Fear Itself 7.1 delivered an emotional shocking twist. Will this issue expose another dark secret?
Magneto: Not a Hero #1
Magneto returned from space pledging his allegiance to Cyclops and wanting to make amends. Eric has demonstrated over and over why he deserves to be an X-Man. New evidence shows the Master of Magnetism back to his extremist ways. Skottie Young and Clay Mann (who met fans at Emerald City Comicon 2011) create a new four part series about the X-Men’s greatest enemy.
Batgirl #3
This is one of my favorite titles in DC’s New 52. Barbara Gordon as Batgirl crosses paths with Nightwing. Will romantic sparks or fists fly? The Mirror raises the stakes in his war on Gotham. Gail Simone has created a fierce heroine, spooky villain in an exciting ride through Gotham’s dark side.
And one more! Earlier this week I previewed the return of Joe Madureira in Avenging Spider Man out this week!
