It’s that time of the week again…NCBD!
History will never be the same!: Giant-Size X-Men #1. Ever since she discovered she was a mutant, Kamala Khan has been balancing her previous life as Ms. Marvel with her role as a leader in the new community, but her conflicted identity has come at a deep personal cost. Now, pulled into the distant past by an unhinged villain with deep ties to mutant history, Ms. Marvel will witness the iconic birth of the Uncanny X-Men and their first encounter with Krakoa from an all-new, all-different perspective. But when history begins to change… can either Kamala Khan or the X-Men themselves survive the experience?
England, 1349. Sir Hugh de Grey, the Pale Knight, returns from war to find a land ravaged by the Black Death, and his son dying of the plague. When he prays to God to save his son’s life, it is not God who answers, but Death himself. And Death is willing to cut a deal.The Pale Knight #1 Written by Peter Milligan and art by Val Rodrigues & Cris Peter.
As My Mothers Made Me, Part 1: Absolute Wonder Woman #8
The Tetracide was a much greater threat than Wonder Woman had imagined for her first battle on the surface, but The Tetracide was child’s play compared to negotiating the complexities and evils of man’s world. The mysterious Area 41 and its Black Box Maze will be Diana’s greatest test yet… and what she finds inside will shock you!
Happy Reading!
