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

Dan Greenfield, editor, 13th Dimension
The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #12, DC. I so love this comic and am sad this is its final chapter. That said, I have to imagine we’ll see some sort of version of this again.
Scott adds: This series has been so much fun. If you missed out, make sure to pick up the collection. (The first volume is out now, the second is due in July.)

The Wrong Earth: Trapped on Teen Planet, AHOY Comics. First in a series of monthly one-shots – this one puts the grim-and-gritty Dragonfly on a world very much like Riverdale. Only, um, not necessarily for kids.

Conan the Barbarian #1 Facsimile Edition (Second Printing), Marvel. It’s fab that they needed to go to a second printing for a Facsimile Edition.

Scott Tipton, contributor-at-large, 13th Dimension
Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes Tabloid Edition, DC. I miss the real Legion of Super-Heroes, and this is a wonderful big fat platter of nostalgia.
Dan adds: I’ve never been a big Legion but I’m still buying this because I want DC to continue to reprint its treasuries. The best way to ensure that happens is with cold, hard cash.

Captain America Epic Collection: Arena of Death, Marvel. More of the latter half of Mark Gruenwald’s landmark run, this volume features Cap heading to the Savage Land and crossing paths with Silver Sable! Fun ’90s Cap goodness here.
—
New Mutants Omnibus Vol. 2 , Marvel. Wrapping up writer Chris Claremont’s time on the series. If you’ve never read his and Art Adams’ one-shot annual about the New Mutants’ time in Asgard, its inclusion here is worth the cost of admission.
