New Comic Book Day, 1/10

New week, new comics!!
This week I actually struggled with which comics NOT to pick up. Probably going to expand my list, but so far;

NCBD 10/1

AfterShock Comics
Monstro Mechanica #2
Writer: Paul Allor
Artist: Chris Evenhuis
Ok, confession time, I haven’t got around, still need to read the first issue, but “A new series starring Leonardo da Vinci, his female apprentice, Isabel, and their wooden robot! “, well it could be interesting.

Pestilence #6
Writer: Frank Tieri
Artist: Oleg Okunev
Cover: Tim Bradstreet
The “true” story of the great pestilence. Its Zombies and Knights, oh did I mentions its zombies and Knight 🙂

Image Comics
Coyotes #3
Story: Sean Lewis
Art/ Cover: Caitlin Yarsky
Fabulous art and a interesting spin on old werewolf myth.

Port of Earth #3
Story: Zack Kaplan
Art/ Cover: Andrea Mutti
Sci-fi, aliens and a whole lot of not so nice future, what’s not to like.

Witchblade (2017)#2
Story: Caitlin Kittredge
Art/ Cover: Roberta Ingranata, Bryan Valenza
Like this new take on the Witchblade and its new host. It feels and looks a bit more “modern” (for lack of a better word) then the old series.

Marvel
Runaways (2017) #5
Writer:Rainbow Rowell
Artist: Kris Anka
The latest Runaway is a must have.

Titan Comics
Normandy Gold #5
Writer: Megan Abbott, Alison Gaylin
Artist: Steve Scott
A kick-ass Sheriff, murder and prostitution in the 1970s.

Zenescope
Van Helsing vs Robyn Hood #1
Writer: Ralph Tedesco
Artist: Allan Otero
I know, I know, but its sort of like really nice comfort food.

I like this new story arc that started with issue #15, looking forward to learn more of Clara’s darkest secrets.

I have no idea what this is, or who the creator are, but could be interesting…

Comics of the week 23/8

Almost September, were did the summer go…
Here is last week’s pull list, a bit thin but I’m behind with my summer reading so that’s fine, need some time to catch up and of course, I need to write a bunch of reviews as well.

LAZARUS: X+66 #2 (OF 6)
Image Comics
Story: Aaron Duran, Greg Rucka
Art: Mack Chater
Cover: Michael Lark
Need to dive into my never ending TBR pile! Lazarus X+66 is also one of those new series I haven’t hade time to get to read yet. But it’s Lazarus and Rucka, so I probebly like it.

PLASTIC #5 (Of 5)
Image Comics
Story: Doug Wagner
Art: Daniel Hillyard, Laura Martin
Cover: Andrew Robinson
To be honest I’ve only read the issues 1-2, and I wasn’t that impressed. But for some reason I kept buying. Maybe it get better in issue 3-5.

REDNECK #5
Image Comics
Story: Donny Cates
Art / Cover: Dee Cunniffe, Lisandro Estherren
The south, vampires, violence – yes!
Need to review issue 1-4 or I just wait until volume 1 hits the stores in October (25th.

SISTERS OF SORROW #2
BOOM! Studios
Story: Kurt Sutter, Courtney Alameda
Art: Hyeonjin Kim
Read issue 1 in July, but need to re-read it again, a story about at no-profit women’s shelter by day and vigilantes at night, that is just a must-read.

SAUCER STATE #3(of 6)
IDW
Story: Paul Cornell
Art: Ryan Kelly
Again, haven’t read issue 1, but a story of female president and former alien abductee, political intrigue and UFO mythology…can’t go wrong with that now can you.

Whats your favorit this week (or last)?
