Comic fans, get ready. Wednesday, August 19 brings another packed week of new releases from Marvel, DC, Image Comics, and independent publishers. With major ongoing storylines, exciting #1 issues, and milestone releases hitting shelves, there’s something for every reader.
The Absolute Universe continues to expand as Oliver Queen and Dinah uncover shocking secrets tied to the mysterious Island. This issue also introduces a new take on a classic DC character, making it one of the week’s most talked-about releases.
BORN ON A MONDAY… RISES ABSOLUTE SOLOMON GRUNDY! Dinah’s search for the Green Arrow Killer has led them both to discover the truth behind the Island — a place far more horrifying than either of them could ever dream. But most disturbing of all is who they discover there — as Absolute Green Arrow debuts the first appearance of a new Absolute take on a classic DC character.
Kevin Smith and Andy McElfresh team up with artist R.B. Silva for a brand-new adventure featuring Spider-Man and the Hulk. Expect action, humor, and a supernatural twist as Bruce Banner faces his darkest demons.
THWIP-SMASH! Legendary writers KEVIN SMITH and ANDY McELFRESH team up with superstar artist R.B. SILVA for the newest high-octane adventure for Spider-Man and Hulk! It’s nonstop action! Side-splitting quips! And… the exorcism of Bruce Banner?!
One of this week’s notable new launches, The Last Driver promises a fresh story and marks Image Comics’ latest addition to an already strong lineup.
AMERICA, THE NOT TOO DISTANT FUTURE — NO ONE KNOWS HOW TO DRIVE…EXCEPT FOR HIM!
As technology in America advanced, cities began creating the GRID — a robotic transportation system that not only made cars obsolete, it made them illegal. But an outlaw named “Clutch” has no choice but to get behind the wheel one more time. What starts out as a race to save his granddaughter’s life quickly turns into a rebellion against technology, fascism, and the future of a divided America.
Superstar artist and longtime gearhead SEAN GORDON MURPHY (Batman: White Knight, TOKYO GHOST, Punk Rock Jesus, The Wake) writes and draws this highly anticipated ongoing series.
Following the success of Bug Wars, this new spinoff launches with Jason Aaron and Mahmud Asrar bringing readers deeper into the world of insect warfare and epic fantasy.
The backyard battlefield heats up and it’s even more brutal and bloodier than before.
Superstar creators JASON AARON & MAHMUD ASRAR return to the savage suburban epic that feeds Honey, I Shrunk the Kids through a war grinder and marinates it in Conan-flavored myth and mayhem.
Six months after the Yard ran red with insect blood, uneasy peace is shattered as ancient enemies rise from the Woods, corporate extermination forces close in, and Slade Slaymaker is dragged back into a brutal world where roach knights ride, squirrel armies gather, and survival means choosing your side in a war no human was meant to fight.
Welcome back to BUG WARS: THE COMING OF THE WARDOOM.
The world continues to spiral into chaos as Earth’s Mightiest Heroes fight for survival against Red Hulk and a growing global crisis.
CIVILIANS RIOT, VILLAINS RISE AND HEROES FALL! The entire globe is thrown into chaos as the Armageddon rages on!!! With the rest of the world turning against the Avengers, what will they choose? Stand down or fight against Red Hulk, even as he seems more and more unbeatable? And when an unstable new power takes center stage… the Avengers — and the world — will need all the help they can get! Wolverine sends out the call: AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!
LEGACY #805
This week’s lineup is headlined by several strong debut issues, including Spider-Man/Hulk: Fire and Brimstone #1, The Last Driver #1, Bug Wars: The Coming of the Wardoom #1, and EC: Shellshock #1. Add in major chapters of Absolute Green Arrow, Avengers: Armageddon, and Thor #800, and August 19 looks like one of the biggest New Comic Book Days of the month.
