Scott and Dan pick the comics they’re most looking forward to this week …
Dan Greenfield, editor, 13th Dimension
Batman #32, DC. The War of Jokes and Riddles by Tom King, Mikel Janin and June Chung ends this week. That’s fine. But all I wanna know is whether Selina will accept Bruce’s marriage proposal! (Click here for 13 REASONS those two crazy kids should get married.)
—
Avengers #672, Marvel. The first Marvel Legacy issue of the company’s premier team title pits the Avengers against the Champions by Mark Waid and Jesus Saiz (with an Alex Ross main cover). Time to start sampling titles again… (Scott concurs and adds: “Apparently the High Evolutionary is coming back. I can never pass up on the High Evolutionary.”)
—
Punisher: The Platoon #1, Marvel MAX. Ever read any of Garth Ennis and Goran Parlov’s Nick Fury-in-Vietnam stuff? Man, you really should. This mini centers the story of Frank Castle’s first kill.
—
Jessica Jones #13, Marvel. The Purple Man returns! From Bendis, Gaydos, Hollingsworth and Mack, natch. (Click here for a SNEAK PEEK.)
—
The Archies, Archie. Alex Segura and Joe Eisma put comics’ greatest fictional act on the road, where Riverdale’s favorite band will meet up with real-life musicians. (Here are 13 bands we want to see show up: Click here.)
The Charlton Arrow #1, Charlton Neo. You can check out a preview over here. The issue’s headliner is the return of Joe Staton and Nicola Cuti’s E-Man. My fave feature, though? The Steve Ditko homage Mr. Mixit! by Roger McKenzie and Steven Butler.

Scott Tipton, co-owner, Blastoff Comics, North Hollywood, Calif.
