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

Dan Greenfield, editor, 13th Dimension

Just me this week. Scott Tipton is off somewhere in the Delta Quadrant!

DC Finest: Blue Beetle — Blue Beetle Challenges the Red Knight, DC. A selection of Silver Age Charlton stories featuring the last Dan Garrett adventures and Steve Ditko’s first Ted Kord tales. Books like this are what make the DC Finest line such a gas.

—

Namor, the Sub-Mariner Omnibus Vol. 1, Marvel. The big-book collection of Namor’s earliest Silver Age adventures, featuring the talents of Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, Roy Thomas, Gene Colan, creator Bill Everett, and others.

—

Fantastic Four #8 Facsimile Edition, Marvel. Loved the mention of the Puppet Master in Fantastic Four: First Steps, didn’t you?

—

Action Comics #1089, DC. I’ve been enjoying Mark Waid and Skylar Patridge’s Superboy stories. I’m reading Action, Supergirl and Krypto right now, but not any Superman solo titles. Funny that.

—

Supergirl #4, DC. Like I just said.

—

Batman: Dark Patterns #9, DC. There have been a number of ballyhooed Batman projects over the past year or so. Nine issues in and this is still the best of the ones I’m reading.

—

Batman: Harley Quinn #1 Facsimile Edition, DC. Paul Dini and Yvel Guichet’s 1999 one-shot brought Harley into the DC Universe proper. I’ve never read it.

Also comes with foil and sketch variants, as well as a Super Powers cover:

Godzilla: Here There Be Aliens #3, IDW. Jet Jaguar is my favorite Godzilla character not named Godzilla.
