Each week hundreds of new comics hit the stands, we pick the ones we feel have the best shot of heating up. Here is this weeks for delivery on 6/11/14:
The Walking Dead one:
The Walking Dead #128- The new story arc continues. Issue 127 shot up in price.
The Bombshells ones:
Detective #32 The clear winner with the sexy Poison Ivy Cover. Not that the others are bad, I do like the Batgirl and Superman Wonder Woman ones
Batgirl #32
Green lantern Corp #32
Justice League United #2
Superman Wonder Woman #9
The non-movie movie one:
Blood Queen #1 – Sure it has no relation to the movie Maleficent, but the cross over potential is there to draw some readers in.
The pick of the week:
The Empty Man #1 – Boom keeps knocking it out the park lately. This one is no surprise. Lots of chatter about the book.
The one everyone will get anyway:
Manifest Destiny #7 -Silvestri variant.
You may have to chaise this one.
