Up, Up and Away! NCBD!
It’s about time we get something new regarding the Invincible universe. Out now! Invincible Universe: Battle Beast #1! Cursed with an unquenchable thirst for violence, Battle Beast searches the universe for the one warrior mightier than him — and a glorious death, his only reward. But even in a universe of mighty Viltrumites like Invincible and Omni-Man, it seems that no one may be able to stop the galaxy’s deadliest warrior… unless he does the unthinkable.
Enter: Hell Hulk. A new demon sets foot on Earth. Will Hellverine even be powerful enough to stop its rampage? Come and see in: Hellverine #6 Written by Benjamin Percy and art by Raffaele Ienco & Bryan Valenza.
It’s a Bird…It’s a Plane…It’s…. Supergirl #1! Follow Kara as she returns to her roots in Midvale… home of Supergirl! But how could this be?! Our hero has not been back in years, and the protector of that town has been saving the day for weeks. Can Supergirl stop the impostor before they steal her fresh start and life?
Happy Reading!
