Written by Tom King & Scott Snyder & Drawn by Mikel Janin | DC
This Rebirth special helps wrap up one era of Batman's career and usher in a new one, as outgoing writer Scott Snyder and incoming writer Tom King join forces. This issue explores the relationship between the rejuvenated Dark Knight and his newest protege, Duke Thomas, as the two contend with a dramatically revamped version of a classic Bat-villain. The result is a surreal, exciting romp through Gotham that makes the most of a very talented creative team. If you weren't excited about the future of the Batman franchise before, you will be after reading this comic.
Written by Matt Fraction & Michael Chabon & Drawn by Fabio Moon & Gabriel Ba | Image
Matt Fraction, Gabriel Ba and Fabio Moon's Casanova will always have a special place in our hearts, and we're excited to see the series returning this week. This latest story arc bucks the usual trend of relaunching with a new #1 and a new subtitle, instead picking up where the creative team last left off with Acedeia #4. But with super-spy extraordinaire Casanova Quinn dealing with amnesia, this issue might just be the ideal jumping-on point for new readers.
Written & Drawn by Mike Mignola | Dark Horse
Ideally, we were hoping that an ongoing Hellboy series written and drawn by Mike Mignola would have lasted longer than 10 issues. But whatever Hellboy in Hell lacked in quantity or timeliness, it more than made up for in quality. This issue will wrap up the sad, strange saga of Hellboy's journey through the underworld. And based on Mignola's comments about taking a break from comics, this may be the last Hellboy take he draws for quite a while. We're going to savor this one.
Written by Sam Humphries & Geoff Johns & Drawn By Ethan Van Sciver & Ed Benes | DC
The Green Lantern franchise is undergoing a major shakeup thanks to DC Rebirth. This Rebirth issue kicks off a new series that will focus on rookie Green Lanterns Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz as they settle into their roles as the new Lanterns of Sector 2814. It's like the ultimate buddy cop tale. And like Batman Rebirth, this issue features a bit of old and new, creatively. Not only is Sam Humphries making his DC debut with this issue, he's being joined by Geoff Johns (who, as you might be aware, knows a thing or two about the GL franchise).
Written & Drawn by Various | Marvel
The '70s were a time when Marvel branched out from traditional superhero fare and explored other genres like horror and martial arts. When it comes to the latter, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better or more influential series of stories than those featuring martial arts whiz Shang-Chi. And now, at long last, those old tales are finally being reprinted for modern audiences. This hardcover is the first of four massive tomes exploring Shang-Chi's quest to rid the world of his father's evil.
