HOT PICKS! On Sale This Week!

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

Dan Greenfield, editor, 13th Dimension

Superman ’78 #1, DC. As I’ve said before, this is the Superman comic I’ve been waiting decades to read – and the wait has been worth it. Robert Venditti, Wilfredo Torres and Leonardo Ito have crystallized what made Richard Donner and Christopher Reeve’s Man of Steel so great.

Scott adds: What a great idea. Here’s hoping the creative team really captures that Mankiewicz/Donner feel.

Amazing Fantasy #2, Marvel. For this wonderful variant by miniseries creator Kaare Andrews that simultaneously homages the Spider-Man ’67 cartoon, Steve Ditko and the short-lived 1960s Spectacular Spider-Man mag.

Fantastic Four Epic Collection: The World’s Greatest Comic Magazine, Marvel. A new printing of the Epic Collection that brings you Lee and Kirby’s earliest FF adventures. Of course, it just so happens the Fantastic Four is celebrating 60 years this month.

The Best of Archie Comics: Eighty Years, Eighty Stories, Archie. A wonderfully affordable package ($14.99) that includes one story from each year Archie has been publishing. Neat. (Click here for a SNEAK PEEK.)

ReAction Planet of the Apes Bloody Lawgiver Statue, Super7. Now you too can have heinous visions before marching on the mutant stronghold and provoking the end of the world. It’s 5 3/4 inches at $25.

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

Fantastic Four Epic Collection: Battle of the Behemoths, Marvel. I have to confess, I’ve never done a deep dive into the Buscema Fantastic Four run. Here’s my chance.

Marvel Masterworks: The Avengers Vol. 21, Marvel. This was the beginning of my super-steady Avengers run when I was a teen fanboy, right about the time when She-Hulk joined the team and Hawkeye rejoined. Some of my favorite Avengers comics herein.
