HOT PICKS! On Sale This Week!
Scott and Dan pick the comics they’re most looking forward to… — Dan Greenfield, editor, 13th Dimension Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #38, DC.

(A new edition.) — Black Widow Modern Era Epic Collection: The Itsy-Bitsy Spider, Marvel. I confess, I never had much interest in Yelena Belova before Florence Pugh came along. — Superior Avengers #1, Marvel. Doctor Doom’s “son” Kristoff is back and leading a new team of Avengers?...
