What comics are coming worth picking up tomorrow? Here are three we can’t wait to read.
My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic #1
Yeah, yeah, cartoon ponies, we get it, we get it. But this is a book worth picking up because of the woman behind it. Katie Cook has been working in comics for years, largely doing pin-ups and trading cards. If anybody deserves a shot at the limelight, it’s her. Similarly, Andy Price’s artwork looks faithful to the show, but with his own spin.
Secondly, this book outsells your favorite book: The preorders alone have moved 90,000 copies. In other words, IDW can keep doing series like Smoke and Mirrors thanks to cartoon horses. Hey, a mouse keeps Marvel in business!
R.I.P.D.: City Of The Damned #1
It’s a comic book about undead cowboys hunting down demons in the Wild West written by the screenwriter of Demolition Man. If that doesn’t sell itself to you, you are not a nerd, and possibly dead inside.
Nowhere Men #1
Lately Image has been doing quite a few books about scientists and their experiments going seriously wrong, which we’re guessing is the editorial department going through Fringe withdrawal. Nonetheless, it’s resulted in books like Think Tank and Manhattan Projects, so it’ll be interesting to see what spin Eric Stephenson and Nate Bellegarde can put on an Image subgenre.
As usual, here’s the full list. Let us know what the single book you’re most looking forward to tomorrow is, and let’s talk some comics.




not bad – some cool stuff coming out!
Image –
Bedlam #2 (#1 was a nice surprise, pretty cool book)
Nowhere Men #1 (this looks very interesting)
Planetoid #4 (its about time! these guys look a couple months off huh?)
Witch Doctor Malpractice #1 (I liked the first book a lot)
Marvel-
X-Men Legacy #2 (big Spurrier fan)
Dynamite-
The Boys Vol 12 TP (can’t wait to see how it ends!)
DC-
Talon #2 (meh, will stop buying this unless it becomes interesting fast)
Avatar-
Crossed Badlands #18 (of course)
Bedlam I was surprised by, and I’m definitely giving it a second issue.
the villian in the book is a little TOO “Joker-esque” but I still found it very entertaining.
As someone who has read The Boys since about issue 17 I enjoyed the end though I will warn you that it is kinda anti-climactic.
“Planetoid #4 (its about time! these guys look a couple months off huh?)”
Same here. One correction: It’s not “these guys”, it’s one guy and apparently he’s been more than a little overwhelmed by the demands of flying solo. I’m looking forward to where this thing is going.
That’s too bad, but I’m glad a new issue is finally coming.
agreed, I am too. that’s right, I forgot it was only the one guy, Ken Garing (or something along those lines).
still, off month(s) are a little jarring for readers.
Single book I’m most looking forward to: FF #1. Fraction + Allreds + She-Hulk = “Instant Blind Buy” in my book.
I’m also hoping that Hypernaturals #5 comes to me finally. I don’t know how and it is in my pull list since before issue 1 came out, but my LCBS didn’t get a copy yet.
