Top Five of What's New: Comics July 22nd
The Comics Coming Out This Week that You Should Take a Chance On..
5) 100 Bullets #1 Crime Sampler
100 Bullets has been a great series that has been published by Vertigo for years now. When it's good, its crime noir at some of its best and it has stayed good through most of the series. If you have never read it most likely you have been meaning to. Well now you can buy the first issue for only a dollar. But that's not all, included in this special issues are previews of some new crime series coming to Vertigo soon.
4) Citizen Rex # 1
This science fiction adult themed noir is having its first issue sent out this week and it looks pretty interesting. The story is about Sergio Bauntin who is a writer in a future where robots are becoming out of fashion, body modification is in fashion and the city has a force of secret investigators called the Truth Takers. Sergio gets himself in over his head when he starts hearing reports of a famous robot CTZ-RX, long thought to be out of commission. This bizarre but cool story it put together by famous team Gilbert and Mario Hernandez.
3) Important Weapons #1
If you're a fan of the amazing comic Immortal Iron Fist than you have heard of Fat Cobra. If you have not read any Iron Fist yet Fat Cobra is a sumo wrestler who has been a mighty warrior and very lively character in the Seven Capital Cities of Heavy story arc. Now we get to learn this characters origin in his own five-issue series. The Iron Fist will also be making guest appearances in these stories. Iron Fist has a great team behind him right now and in my opinion it is a comic that should not be missed.
2) Jack of Fables #36
I will be the first to admit that I am kind of a sucker for anything that comes out of the Vertigo Fables series. I have been a big fan for a long time and I have really started to like Jack of Fables. If you don't know the series Jack is the same Jack who climbed up the bean stalk and jumped over the candlestick. Except he lives in our world now and gets into all sorts of interesting adventures including this issue where he ends up in Africa and becomes king of the apes for a while. This story is a stand-alone issue so it's a great time to give it a try. If you like it at all I recommend getting the graphic novels of the entire Jack adventures so far.
1) Amazing Spiderman #600
Now that we get a dose of Spiderman every week it can be easy to take the web slinger for granted. Still he is one of the greatest comic icons and should not be ignored. If you have not been reading for a while now will be the time for this issues promises all sorts of thrills and adventure. There are rumors of a surprise wedding. Not to mention both Doc Oct and Daredevil will be showing up to congratulate Spidey on 600 issues.
