Scott Tipton, contributor-at-large, 13th Dimension
Green Arrow & Black Canary: Till Death Do They Part, DC. I wish we would have had a longer run of comics with Ollie and Dinah married, and happily so.

Star Wars: War of the Bounty Hunters Alpha #1, Marvel. I’m not even a loyal reader of the Marvel Star Wars line, but I just cannot resist a bounty hunter-focused series. Bring on Bossk and Dengar!

Squadron Supreme TPB, Marvel. Mark Gruenwald’s greatest single work, one that so influenced and anticipated the next three and a half decades of comics, now back in print in an affordable softcover edition. If you don’t have it, get it.

Dan Greenfield, editor, 13th Dimension
She’s Josie, Archie Comics. An affordable ($10.99) collection of Josie’s 1960s stories before she became a rock star with the Pussycats. Dig the Dan DeCarlo cover. Far out!
