FOC is the last chance to put in your orders with your comic shops and likely get at a discount for pre-ordering.
First pick goes to Captain Marvel #18. She’s the new Accuser (which might make Empyre #2 a key book if that title stands for awhile) and this is just an awesome cover. There’s a whole lot more going on in this issue as well, which I won’t spoil.
There’s also the Mora Empyre Variant, which isn’t bad but I’m gonna say, if you pick up a copy, stick with A on this one.
The next pick is a second printing and it’s just an awesome cover for all you Bobba Fett fanboys and girls out there. Bounty Hunters #1 2nd Printing.
The Mega Man fan in me can’t resist to throw this next one in my list as well. Mega Man Fully Charged #1 is a BOOM! book now. I prefer Udon but I can’t be too picky I suppose. I’m not chasing the 1:50 or 1:100 though that they got for this new Mega Man title.. sigh!
I did get to read it in an advance preview though and it’s quite good with the interior art being top notch if you ask me.
Last up is the DC’s Death Metal #3 which went from a Opena variant to a Federici Variant that depicts the Robin King that is being introduced in this series. If he takes off like BWL, these books could turn key.. it’ll be even better if they introduce him in a Teen Titans low printing issue to really spice up the spec, hehe.
That’s it for this coming Monday’s FOC highlight picks. Happy 4th of July! If you go out, wear your damn mask and stand 6 feet away from others. It’s more patriotic to care of the welfare of your fellow neighbors and Americans than your own self serving needs.. or ideologues.
Besides the captain marvel I have all these on preorder. I love the cheaper price $2.79 so if the books are meh not like I paid cover price.
I’m a Boba Fan. Must have that cover. Bet you it’ll be a low print run as well. Still plenty of first prints on the shelves.
This is definitely low print.
There’s a Thor #2 3rd print out there. Same release date as the Bounty Hunters #1 2nd. Ordered both.
Yeah, it’ll be interesting to see how the Thor #2 Third Print does though.. now that #5 is first full..
Have you seen what 5 is doing? $40 sales? For a cloud??
Can’t wait for my Midtown order to get here…flip that suckah. Of course it’ll be back to cover price by the time it gets shipped…
This one is destined for a 3rd print…and hopefully a first cover.
“Of course it’ll be back to cover price by the time it gets shipped…”
No, the world will have already ended by the time Midtown ships it…
And it’s #2 where it’s all cloud.. #5 his cloudiness takes the shape of Thor.. 😉
I think you are seeing $40 because people are still so starved for comics and without a super full slate of new books, that budget has to go somewhere. Same reason for the Miles explosion.
People need other hobbies.. I’ve been pumping all my extra money into stamps.. 😛
I’d think your Lego collection should be doing pretty well these days.
hasn’t been a whole lot coming out recently but i’m limited on space, some sets i haven’t built cause i don’t have any shelf space for them currently
we never got a spoiler article for Death Metal #2! Is it really King Robin’s first appearance?
