Tag: poyos picks of the week

Welcome back to another new comic book week, where we all get our geek on with new books hitting the shelves at our local comic book shops.
This week is smaller than usual, seems there’s not as many new books hitting shelves, DC and Dynamite and IDW seem to have less than normal new books. There is a Paul Pope variant for M.A.S.K. #1 hitting stands, so be on the look out for that one. I know Anthony is gonna be searching for it more than likely.

You know what’s better than spending time with the family and eating lots of turkey? New comic book day. Forget Thursday, this Wednesday is bound to be better with lots of new comics hitting the shelves. Yeah, you heard me, new comic book day is like Christmas every week. Where you get to go treat yourself with all the crap you don’t really need but you really need it or your life feels empty.  So go buy those comic books, pick up a few extra, some titles you wouldn’t necessarily pick up. You deserve it. Continue reading “Poyo's Picks for November 23, 2016”

It’s that time again, the day we all wait for each week, new comic book Wednesday.
Is it me or does it seem like since Image claimed they were going to boost their #1 prints to avoid 2nd, 3rd and beyond printings.. we’ve seen more number ones go to 2nd and 3rd printings? Just doesn’t add up if you ask me.
You all will be so proud of me, I started attempting to catch up on my readings and I actually made a slight dent. I’m caught up with some Marvel reads and also Amazing Spider-Man so I could read Clone Conspiracy, which I can honestly say, art is great, story is meh. It’s not terrible but can we officially say Gwen Stacy has been revived? She’s suppose to stay dead dammit. Anyways.. I’ll hold my rants for characters that should stay dead for later, let’s get on with the picks, my picks, the stuff I’m gonna tell you to pick up to buy, read or flip, or whatever it is you do with your comic books..

It’s election night here in America, where Americans will pick their next leader, so we can start the election campaign cycle all over again almost immediately after it’s over. So instead of tuning into that political mud flinging arena, let’s talk comics, cause tomorrow is, new comic book Wednesday, something better to celebrate.
So let’s get on with the picks, my picks, sometimes dead on.. Continue reading “Poyo's Picks of the Week for November 9th, 2016”

Another Wednesday is upon us, like Christmas every week, even if it’s a smaller week, Wednesday is by far the best day.
This week brings more exciting books, so keep reading to find out what Poyo says you should be picking up to read, or flip. I am right sometimes too….

Poyo Goals:
Met Jock. Check.
Met Francesco Francavilla. Check.
If you haven’t already, read my article on Mondo Con, it was a blast, especially the Art of Jock panel. I didn’t get a chance to go to all the panels but that was the primary one I wanted to see.
With that said, on with the picks of the week. Continue reading “Poyo's Picks for October 26, 2016”

MondoCon is coming up here in Central Texas, if you’re going, holler in the comments section, I should be there either Saturday or Sunday. Jock and Francavilla are both going to be there, amongst some other comic creators and artists, movies, music, toys and food. So it’s more than just comics, I’m looking forward to the event and hopefully sharing stuff with the masses. Continue reading “Poyo's Picks of the Week for October 19, 2016”

So NYCC was a blast. It was nice meeting people and hanging with Anthony and Tyson from ToyBoxOne. Met Mel as well, but with the crowds and such, we all sort of went our own way at times. Shout out to Larry as well from Larry’s Comics, great pleasure to finally meet you in person.
A huge thanks to Anthony though for hooking us up with hotel reservations, con connections and that uber ride back to the airport on the way out of the city on Sunday, back to our regularly scheduled programmed lives.
Since I survived the weekend, let’s talk about comics some more shall we? It’s a huge week this week and there is just literally tons of good stuff hitting the shelves. So I’m going to change it up again. I’m going to stick with my DC and Marvel Picks, but then I’m going to make sure there’s always an Indie pick, which will hopefully be my main focus. Yes, out of the dozens of comics I pick up each week, I’m going to narrow it down to just one pick I think you should either read, keep or flip. Sometimes I might think it will be a quick flip. Sometimes it might just be something you hold onto for a long time. So let’s move on. Continue reading “Poyo's Picks for October 12, 2016”

It’s Con Week for me and a few others. Yes, anyone going to NYCC, look for me, I’ll be hanging around that Tony guy.. and Tyson from ToyBoxOne!
It’s a huge week and I’ll be traveling on Wednesday so I’m hoping I ordered most of what I wanted or need, but I’m sure I missed something for the collection.
Regardless, let’s get on with the picks… Continue reading “Poyo's Picks of the Week for Sept. 5th 2016”

Welcome to Poyo’s picks of the week, where I give you my chicken wisdom in what I think you should be picking up or reading. Sometimes I’m even right and nail a spec, but that’s a rare occurrence.
Last week’s winner (Seven to Eternity) was kind of a no brainer, but it did end up heating up way faster than I anticipated. Maybe I can pick this weeks winner and get two weeks in a row, since getting one spec right is an accomplishment in itself. Continue reading “Agent Poyo's Picks of the Week for Sept. 28th, 2016”
