Scott and Dan pick the comics they’re most looking forward to…
Dan Greenfield, editor, 13th Dimension
Action Comics #1042, DC. Because this Julian Totino Tedesco variant cover is a work of art.

Hulk: Grand Design – Madness, Marvel. Ya’ll went after me hard when I didn’t include the first issue of Jim Rugg’s reimagining of the Hulk’s history. Sorry! The conclusion is out this week! Don’t smash me!
—
Back Issue #134, TwoMorrows. Bronze Age oddities and whatnot. Great ish! (Click here for a SNEAK PEEK.)
—
Alter Ego #175, TwoMorrows. Another smashing mag from TM – this one an All-Star Squadron spectacular. And I do mean spectacular. Fab ish! (Click here for a SNEAK PEEK.)
—
James Bond: Dr. No Casino Plaques, Limited Edition Prop Replica, Factory Entertainment. From Sean Connery’s spectacularly sexy screen introduction 60 years ago, when he uttered for the first time one of screendom’s most memorable catch phrases: “Bond… James Bond.” The set costs about $100 but you’ll feel like you just broke the bank at the chemin de fer table.
—
Previews #404, Diamond Publications. One of the covers for the new Previews catalogue features the upcoming Kato action figure from Diamond Select Toys. Which means you can already order it through your local shop!

Scott Tipton, contributor-at-large, 13th Dimension
Dave Stevens Rocketeer Artist’s Edition, IDW. So happy to see this back in print.
Dan adds: Damn, this is a helluva week, isn’t it?
—
Locke & Key: The Golden Age, IDW. Gabe Rodriguez’s work just impresses me more with every new project.
—
Marvel Masterworks: Mighty Thor Vol. 21, Marvel. I have to confess, I’ve never read any issues of Thor from this era. I do love the Bi-Beast though, so I’m in.

Action’s cover price $5.99! Inflation is a real joy. No thanks. But I am looking forward to my copy of Alter Ego arriving soon.
