A somewhat smaller week of the new comic releases. Few solid #1’s out this week by multiple publishers. With a good bunch of exclusives for Zatanna #1. FCBD & CGD around the corner, make sure you visit your LCS on May 2nd! Here are a few books that were handpicked by our content managers:
The Punisher #3D. Punisher making an end to Jigsaw once more. Written by Benjamin Percy and art by José Luis Soares Pinto, Jonas Trindade, Oren Junior and Frank D’Armata. With the Gerardo Sandoval variant being the one I will be picking up this week.
Hellboy in Love: Black Eyes #1. A cozy visit with retired B.P.R.D agents Archie and Margaret takes a chilly turn when Hellboy and Anastasia investigate the local ghost. Surely nothing will go wrong here right?
Generation X-23 #3C. Laura taken out by the new X-numbers! Can Scout (Gabby) find the allies needed to stop the death and destruction?! Find out with me this week! Definitely seems intriguing by the looks of it but this was a total cover buy pre-order :).
All comics releasing this week can be found in the NCBD tab in your add comics screen. All new releases have been carefully cleaned up, with lots of info added! Be sure to check them out in the app. Either when you hit your comic shop or, when back home adding your stack you’ve just come home with!
Happy reading!
