Every week, tons of new books hit the stands, each with potential. Some live up to that potential. We pick the ones we think have the best shot at heating up. Here are the picks of the week for delivery this Wednesday
What is up Wednesday Warriors? Lets see what is on tap:
New Series
Battleworld #1 – Heroes from across the Multiverse are thrown together on a patchwork world to engage in their own Secret Wars for the survival of their timelines! Who or what has created this Battleworld, and for what nefarious purpose? Enter Maestro. Is he friend, or foe?
Masters Of The Universe The Sword Of Flaws #1 – New He-Man series. A legion of Heroic Warriors protects the magical realm known as Eternia. They are led by Teela: Captain of the Royal Guard, Man-at-Arms: weapons master and combat instructor, and the powerful and heroic He-Man. These heroes, known as the Masters of the Universe, keep threats like the evil Skeletor and his minions at bay. But when an ancient and evil artifact is unearthed from the depths, the Masters of the Universe will have to scour the land in search of this Preternian power… or risk it falling into the hands of their greatest enemies.
Skinbreaker #1 – The dream team of ROBERT KIRKMAN and superstar artist DAVID FINCH present a visionary action epic unlike anything you’ve ever seen. Enor has led his tribe for many seasons, but his time as Chieftan is coming to an end. He wields the mighty SKINBREAKER, but at his age, he can barely lift it. Will Enor’s reluctant heir, Anok, take over before their world falls to ruin? As a bloody power struggle begins, an even bigger threat lurks in the darkness beyond their village. SKINBREAKER tells the story of a people on the verge of collapse and their fight for survival as the many threats they face close in for the kill.
Twilight Zone #1 – Sixth series of the classic tv show comic kicks off.
Viking Moon #1 – VIKINGS versus WEREWOLVES! In 1003, Leif Erikson established a Viking settlement in Vneland (present day Newfoundland), a strange new world of plenty but populated by an indigenous people and something else…something UNNATURAL. Twenty years after the original expedition ended in disaster, a new attempt to settle this wilderness is made. Ulf and his hardened tribe of Vikings soon discover that the whisper of creatures who are both human and beast are not primitive legend, but death-bringing reality. The real reason the Vikings fled North America! A tale of blood-curdling horror and barbaric adventure
