SAMMI'S PICK - Monster High Shock and Aww! #1 (IDW...

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/17

When we started Sammi's Picks, none of us realized that Monster High would be the most consistently beloved series that she would keep recommending! But sweet!

Thundercats: Pumyra #1 (Dynamite Entertainment)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/17

Wow! An actual factual character study of a one-shot that's both worth reading AND gets me interested in checking out the Thundercats comics. Yes, that makes it weird when I pronounce Pumyra three different ways. Still a great read though. THUNDERCATS: PUMYRA #1, written by Ed Brisson, art by Alice Leclert, colors by Arancia Studio, with letters by Jeff Eckleberry.

Space Scouts #1 (Dark Horse Comics, Flux House)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/17

There's always something healing about watching a reluctant heroine go through the equivalent of a Mr. Beast video to only get shoved into a warzone. Lovely. SPACE SCOUTS #1, written by Matt Kindt, with art, colors and letters with David Rubin.

Death Dog #1 (Ahoy Comics)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/17

It's just a simple sci-fi story about a boy and his robotic security dog that has no problem biting off arms to save his newfound - but reluctant - owner. Awesome. DEATH DOG #1 written by Bryce Ingman, art by Alan Robinson, colors by Paul Little, with letters by Rob Steen.

Planet She-Hulk #1 (Marvel Comics)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/17

Of course this is a treat and a half. The exasperated She-Hulk has to deal with being the ruler of a planet that really doesn't want to be ruled. It's fun, funny and action-packed goodness.PLANET SHE-HULK #1, written by Stephanie Phillips, art by Aaron Kuder, colors by Sonia Oback, with letters by Joe Caramagna.

Alien Vs. Captain America #1 (Marvel Comics)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/17

Excuse me, this should be called AlienS Vs. Captain America, but other than that a solid tale of facehugger-y goodness set in World War II. ALIEN VS. CAPTAIN AMERICA #1, written by Frank Tieri, art by Stefano Raffaele, colors by Keeraj Menon, with letters by Clayton Cowles.

Spirits of Violence #1 (Marvel Comics)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/17

Oddly maybe the best Marvel book I've read in the last couple of months. Not saying much since most of the books I've been reading from Marvel was from that lukewarm Age of Revelation thing. SPIRITS OF VIOLENCE #1, written by Sabir Pirzada, art by Paul Davidson, colors by Andrew Dalhouse, with letters by Travis Lanham.

DC K.O.: Knightfight #1 (DC Comics)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/17

Oh right, I almost forgot that DC KO was a thing that was going on. Are we surprised that Batman gets the first tie-in comic and that it's a story that's about the world and Batman's relation to it? Of course not. DC KO: KNIGHTFIGHT #1, written by Josh Williamson, art by Dan Mora, colors by Triona Farrell, with letters by Tom Napolitano.

SAMMI'S PICK - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Annual...

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

So the Turtles all come back together after a 'lost year' and the stories made Sam want to cry. Yeah, that's typically the sign of a really good comic or a really bad one. I'm assuming the former.

SAMMI'S PICK - Return to Sleepy Hollow #1 (IDW...

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

A sequel series to the cult classic Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow? AJ is extremely perturbed Sam sniped this review out from under him but hey, it's still awesome... I Think is what Sam's verdict is.

SAMMI'S PICK - Disney Villains: Maleficent #1...

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

Ooh, Disney greenlit a story about Maleficent that isn't trying to turn her into Elphaba from Wicked. Awesome!

SAMMI'S PICK - Universal Monsters: Dracula Black &...

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

Image Comics hits hard this Halloween with a beautiful rendition of Dracula, the living dead. At least that's what Sam says.

Godzilla Vs America: Kansas City #1 (IDW Publishing)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

You know this is going to be a fun on a bun book, even if I don't think anyone can really say anything about Kansas City other than it's actually in Missouri. Except maybe they have good sauce? I'll have to investigate further.

Supernatural #1 (Dynamite Entertainment)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

It's good to see that even after a series ends, there'll be books put out that feel like cash-grab tie-ins, complete with being set in between Seasons 1 and 2. Sigh. SUPERNATURAL #1, written by Greg Pak, art by Eder Messias, colors by Thyago Brandao, with letters by Jeff Eckleberry.

Thundercats: Cheetara - Worldbreaker #1 (Dynamite...

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

So apparently before she was the cool chick that made the '80s really debate on the cutoff line for "furry", she was "not like the other girls" and a bit of a priss with psychic powers. Okay. Wish a book that used "historic" in their solicit actually was worth owning though. THUNDERCATS: CHEETARA - WORLDBREAKER #1, written by Nate Cosby, art by David Cousens, colors by Rashan Kurichiyanil and Arancia Studio, with letters by Jeff Eckleberry.

Synthetics Vol. 1 #1 (Dark Horse Comics)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

How can you write a cyberpunk book in the current Gibsonian dystopian we're in and still make it feel like it would have been oldhat in the late 2000s? JSM found a way! SYNTHETICS: VOLUME ONE #1, written by J. Michael Stracynzski, illustrated by Tony Parker, colors by Carrie Strachan, with letters by Steve Dutro.

5:39

X-Vengers #1 (Marvel Comics)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

This book may have been pretty good if there wasn't just a massive vagueness on the actual makeup of the world or even the notion that there would need to be an Avengers team that involved in the Revelation plot. Neat redesigns though, kinda... a little. X-VENGERS #1, written by Jason Loo, pencils by Sergio Davila, inks by Aure Jimenez, colors by Rain Beredo, with letters by Joe Sabino.

Undeadpool #1 (Marvel Comics)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

Of course Tim Seeley had to release a comic in October that was a zombie Deadpool playing a round of slasher villain with some hapless teen mutants. Oddly, it's a lot better than that idea seems. UNDEADPOOL #1, written by Tim Seeley, art by Carlos Magno, colors by Guru-eFX, with letters by Joe Sabino.

Expatriate X-Men #1 (Marvel Comics)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

I've read a lot of these Age of Revelation books now - damn near all of them - and it is only at this point that I found one that truly feels like no one was trying on the creative team.EXPATRIATE X-MEN #1, written by Eve L. Ewing, art by Francesco Mortarino, colors by Raul Angulo, with letters by Ariana Maher.

Cloak Or Dagger #1 (Marvel Comics)

First Issues NOW! ·

2025/11/13

The first start of my review is me complaining to high hell about how much the marketing for this went for Marvel Rivals as if that was their only reason to have a comic (sadly it probably is) but damn if the actual issue didn't make me love it by the end. CLOAK OR DAGGER #1, written by Justina Ireland, art by Lorenzo Tommetta, colors by Andrew Dalhouse, with letters by Joe Caramagna.
