Poyo’s Spec and Picks for February 8th, 2023

Welcome to this weeks spec and picks. This is where we pick the winners each week we (or shall I say myself) think will be spec worthy, a great read or just cool looking art on the cover.



Smaller week but still a few potential winners.

Marvel Picks

Red Goblin #1 is either going to be a entertaining read or fall flat as I’m not that familiar with the writer and this one is gonna depend on good writing to win me over.

I do like this InHyuk Lee cover though for the regular cover.

Darth Vader #31 has a pretty slick regular cover and these are just a must, for all the potentials coming out of Star Wars spec.

Other Star Wars titles out this week are:

Star Wars Hidden Empire #3
Star Wars High Republic #5

DC Picks

Nothing really stands out this week but you should pick up Batman #132, as Zdarsky is writing this title now and his writing is above par. I really like this B cover as well.



Indie and Small Publisher Picks

Monarch #1 is a new Image title out from Rodney Barnes, the writer behind Killadelphia. So it’s a must check out I think.

Harrower #1 is a new Justin Jordan title coming out of BOOM!. This is a must as I’ve always enjoyed Justin’s work.
