Future State
DC’s Future State starts this week. Lots of books to check out.

But also,
Dark Nights Death Metal #7 – Sold out in many places due to the hype of the first Future State Wonder Woman cameo. There are several covers to this one including a 1:100 variant that has sold as high as $149.

Generations Shattered One Shot – not as talked about but thanks to Mushu on the forums for pointing out, this also has Future State Wonder Woman and several other Future State Cameos in it.

Ones to Watch
Crossover #3 – Donny Cates hyped this one a bit, ok a lot, and it does include two cool guest appearances, one from Cates previous works and one from an indy comic legend who may play a big role in the story.

Star Wars #10 – formation of the STARLIGHT SQUADRON, there is a Starlight Station in High Republic, connection? Anyway, you should know by now Star Wars firsts and all that.

Venom #32 – Kind of a must grab for me. Shows off where Eddie goes after he died.

The One and Done
Ninja Nuns Bad Habits Die Hard One Shot – fun spinoff from Metal Shark Bro, from the folks at Scout Comics.

Iron Man #5 Frank Cho Variant – Great looking Hellcat cover. I mean Cho wasn’t gonna draw Tony Stark in that pose. Sales up to $50 on pre-orders for this 1:25

King In Black Return Of The Valkyries #1 – lots of talk about a possible new Valkyrie who could be in the Thor movie. Definitely one to watch.

New #1’s

Pick of the Week

If you do not have any secured, try and grab them from

One thought on “Comic Picks of the Week for Delivery 1/6/21”

  1. So before last week I asked my LCS if they could get me 2 copies of the Spider-Man with the cpgrewt cover (lol not for the story because it’s bad) & they said ok…come Wednesday I’m looking for my 2nd copy, none on the shelves of course & the owner says “these are selling for $25 on eBay” so this week I ask “did you get the spawn Crossover #3 cover? & would you believe they didn’t? Idk if I believe it…so now I suspect about the SW High Republic…at this point I feel I have to pay in advance
