HOT PICKS! On Sale This Week!

Scott and Dan pick the comics they’re most looking forward to…

Dan Greenfield, editor, 13th Dimension

Dark Nights: Death Metal #1, DC. The sequel to Dark Nights: Metal and what writer Scott Snyder calls a “gigantic, epic crescendo” the modern DC era. All I know is that this will be Snyder and Greg Capullo at their over-the-toppiest.

Detective Comics #475 Facsimile Edition, DC. The penultimate chapter of the epic Englehart/Rogers/Austin run — and one of the greatest Joker stories ever, ads and all. (Or at least Part 1.) DC recently cancelled a bunch of Facsimile Editions but hopefully they’ll come back. And at least there’s this mighty issue. Oh, and you should pay 13th Dimension a visit this weekend for something truly special related to this landmark storyline.

Scott Tipton, contributor-at-large, 13th Dimension

Walt Disney’s Uncle Scrooge: The Twenty-Four Carat Moon, Fantagraphics. Another full-color collection of Duck goodness by the master himself, the Good Artist, Carl Barks!

The Astonishing Art of Amanda Conner, DC Comics. A second collection of Amanda’s relatively recent work, including Silk Spectre, Harley Quinn, Supergirl and more! Can never get enough Amanda Conner comics.

Iron Man Epic Collection: War Machine, Marvel. I don’t think I’ve ever read the first appearances of James Rhodes in the War Machine armor! Looking forward to this.

Marvel Masterworks: The Avengers, Vol. 20, Marvel. Some of my favorite Avengers tales of the ’80s can be found herein, including Tigra’s short-lived stint on the team, and the beginnings of Hank Pym’s slow descent into madness.

  1. That Batman issue was posted on the Bedroom wall of the deputy’s kid. Just one of those background details that jumped out
