The COMICS GROUP HAWT
PICK OF THE WEEK: comes from Dynamite Entertainment with “SOVEREIGNS”. Remember the old Gold Key comics and those
heroes of old? Guys like Turok the Son of Stone, Magnus the Robot Fighter,
Solar (was it Doctor Solar?) and Doctor Spektor were all the rage during the
heyday of Gold Key Comics! Now they are
together in the year 2025. Turok is missing and Magnus is worried about that! And
from that the journey is launched! It’s a new story with old heroes and it’s
bound to please!

Sadly, this week I do not see any new titles that would
warrant listing under our “THE COMICS
GROUP TITLES MENTIONED IN HONORABLE TERMS”! title!!! BUT…..
These great titles are also coming out this week and
most deserving of your attention! Check these out:

Image is coming out with a couple of good ones this week!
“GRRL SCOUTS: MAGIC SOCKS”! See I thought this was going to be about Girl
Scouts! I love Girl Scout cookies and sometimes during dress-up we…..ah never mind
that. But anyway, no Girl Scouts or their cookies. This is another chapter in a
story I know nothing about! These girls apparently go on some kind of psychedelic
adventure on the streets of some place called Freak City. Sounds like a freak
show all right but it might be fun.
Image is also bringing us a 25 year anniversary release
of SPAWN #1!!! You get the original art and storyboard of the first issue, page
commentary by Todd MacFarlane the creator, writer and artist and some “vintage
surprises” from the early days of Spawn. For 44.99 I think you get your monies
worth!

And yet another good one from Image “THE WICKED AND
DIVINE: 455 AD” is a true stand-alone one-shot meaning it won’t be a part of
any past or future volumes of this exciting tale. In this one, Lucifer
apparently refuses to fiddle whilst the Roman Empire burns! It’s a story
described as a vandalization of history in this twisted tale of the Sack of
Rome! As always, WICKED AND DIVINE comes with staggeringly great art from
series and Avengers AI great Andre Araujo!
Marvel has some good titles out this week! First up “GENERATION
X”. Join the mutants as Professor Xavier’s School reopens for new students and
who else but Jubilee is there to help monitor the new budding mutants as they
adapt and survive in a world that bears them no grace! I’m liking this one for
its cover art by Terry Dodson who has done some great work for X-Men and
INHUMAN alike!

Marvel’s “LUKE CAGE” comes out with a new series this
week! Some of my best friends have enjoyed Luke Cage over the years and this
series promises to entertain you as it reacquaints you with perhaps one of
Marvels most under-valued heroes. This story take Luke to New Orleans and as
always, trouble finds him but he freakin deals with it!!!
Here’s the link to this week’s
