Black Widow Issue 1
Though we had some releases last week that brought in the new year, this week marks the first full release week with books back on their normal Wednesday for the main swath of titles. And this week sees a number of new things kicking off across the board. Injustice: Year Two brings us some new digital fun, Image kicks off Minimum Wage and new Walking Dead, which never hurts. DC Comics and Marvel Comics have a lot of ongoings out, but Marvel is upping the ante with a lot of new series, with All-New X-Factor, Black Widow and Revolutionary War: Alpha making their debut. There’s also a slew of back issues and new trade releases, including the wonderful original Grant Morrison Animal Man comics.
On the manga side, Digital Manga Publishing has The Boys With Tomorrow To Conquer Volume 1 and The Conqueror’s Chalice. TOKYOPOP is offering up Psy-Comm Volume 2, Peach Fuzz Volume 1 and DramaCon Volume 3. Seven Seas Entertainment has a few on tap as well with Dictatorial Grimoire volume 2 and Zero’s Familiar Volume 7.
