Scott and Dan pick the comics they’re most looking forward to this week …
—
Scott Tipton, co-owner, Blastoff Comics, North Hollywood, Calif.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #1, Boom! Studios. I’m admittedly a little bit out of the demographic for this one, but my slightly younger friends seem excited about it, so I’ll definitely be checking it out.
—
Harley Quinn and Power Girl TPB, DC Comics. Maybe my favorite current DC book, collected. It’s just plain fun. From Palmiotti, Conner, Roux and co.
—
Graham Ingels EC Stories Artist’s Edition, IDW Publishing. The best of EC horror, by the master, Graham “Ghastly” Ingels. It’s so great to see these pages at full size.
—
Black Widow #1, Marvel. I wasn’t a big fan of the last Widow series, so I’m hoping Waid and Samnee give us something a bit more human and approachable for Natasha.
—
Dan Greenfield, editor, 13th Dimension
Scooby-Doo Team-Up #15, DC Comics. I’m a total sucker for this title. I mean, c’mon, Mystery Inc. and DC’s bravest, boldest and super-friendliest? Who’s got the cereal?
—
Swamp Thing #3, DC Comics. Len Wein and Kelley Jones have been giving a master class in superhero horror comics with this series and whether you love tubers or not, you should drop by the swamp. Plus, this month: Zatanna, looking fine in her tux.
—
Black Widow #1, Marvel. What Scott said.
—
Thief of Thieves Vol. 5 TPB, Image. We do dig the snazzy stylings of one Shawn Martinbrough. Cooler than cool.
As usual, my Batman picks will come in the BATBOOK OF THE WEEK column — part of BATMAN’S HOT-LINE on Tuesday.

Good suggestions. I’ve been looking forward to the BW book, but maybe I should think about that issue of Swamp Thing (strong creative team). I’ve also fallen behind on Thief of Thieves’ monthly book -so that TPB is a good suggestion too. The art’s fantastic and the characters are very cool too.
