New comics are due to hit the shelves on Wednesday so here’s a look ahead at some of the books we’ll be picking up this week along with a full list of titles that will be available from Paradox Comics.
Jo S: My list is truly a deluge of goodness this week, swamped with delights both familiar and new. Starting off with the new, my one-issue-#1 rule is conclusively swept away with three new starts I can't resist. I talked about Far Sector in the Shipping Forecast: I am unfamiliar with writer N K Jemisin but a sci-fi theme always floats my boat, and with art from Jamal Campbell, who lit up the Naomi series this year, this one looks like it's worth a try. Family Tree is new from Jeff Lemire: an intriguing, if Kafkaesque, premise about a girl slowly transforming into a tree, with early glimpses suggesting some really stellar art from Phil Hester. So far this all feels a little serious, so I'm also taking Mirka Andolfos UnSacred: Andolfos released some sample pages on Twitter and they looked cute and intriguing - in a grown up kind of way!
I really enjoyed the first issue of The Batman's Grave, and discussion of this at a recent PCG meet raised a couple of theories I'm interested to have in mind while reading further issues: even if my sceptical musings don't come to fruition, the heft and raw strength of Hitch's art gives Ellis' return of Batman to his detective roots a weight and substance I really enjoyed.
Staying with DC, it's bliss to have Joëlle Jones back on art for Catwoman - she rules supreme as my favourite artist for drawing the Cat, in fact for drawing women full stop. I adore her work.
Finally, the time has come to start making decisions on which of the new Hickman generation of X-books I'm going to stick with. I've been thoroughly overwhelmed with the HOX and POX series and flood of connected issue #1s, and need to choose a port (or two, possibly three) in which to weather the storm - I enjoyed the slower pace and relative calmness of the first of the new main X-Men title, and so I think I'll drop anchor there - well, at least for this week.
