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: Another week, another superb list of treats to have me racing home from Paradox Comics and tearing off the wrapping with glee! Some long awaited next instalments first: Lazarus: Risen #3 is probably one of my most anticipated regular books and the lengthy absence between issues certainly does make the heart grow fonder and the pangs intensify; it's a testament to the strength and uniqueness of this story that it feels so fresh still in my mind. Still longer anticipated, and an incredible two years since we raved about issue #1, the fourth and final Batman: Creature Of The Night finally appears; I do remember falling headlong into the story of Bruce Wainwright and the dark force which might be keeping him safe but might also be something very different from, and darker than, our old pal Batman.
Also at #4 of four this week is the renamed Machine Gun Wizards: apparently a Cease and Desist Order was enforced on the original Tommy Gun Wizards title, and so the final issue, wrapping up the alternative magical universe version of the story of Elliott Ness versus the Mob, goes out under a new banner. We were talking only this week about comics where the title alone just pulls you in: I'm not sure I would have engaged with Machine Gun Wizards from the start… but what am I saying?! It's Christian Ward! Of course I would! And talking of Ward, Invisible Kingdom's second arc continues this week - Ward's art blazes off the page, setting off G Willow Wilson's witty, educated writing perfectly.
A Basketful Of Heads took a slower than expected route in issue #1 and I'm interested to see where the next goes, given the deep level of setup offered for it. Also at issue #2 this week is New Mutants: I'm figuring out week by week which of the Hickman-helmed X-books I'll stick with and the 'youngsters' captured my imagination in their first instance, with Rod Reis' gorgeous art a big part of that. Hickman and Brisson keep the action light and bright but don't hold back on throwing the serious stuff at this young team.
The unfailingly reliable Criminal, the gorgeous delight that is Valkyrie: Jane Foster and the irreverent, possibly blasphemous but intelligently written Second Coming round off my selection for November's wrap week. My goodness, it'll be time for the Paradoscars before we know it - don't forget to get your votes in, boys and girls!
