In ‘Batman Eternal’ #39 someone has pieced together the mystery behind the plot to crush Gotham City, but it’s not Batman! The Riddler knows all, and he’ll never tell!

It’s the crossover nobody ever expected, ‘Star Trek Planet of the Apes’ #1! STAR TREK: The hope for the best of mankind’s future! PLANET OF THE APES: A chilling look at the fall of humanity! How could these worlds possibly collide? What could possibly cause Captain Kirk and the crew of the Enterprise to side with Dr. Zaius to protect Ape City?  And what does Colonel George Taylor have to say about it? It’s a madhouse! A madhouse!!

Following the dramatic conclusion of YEAR ONE, the Great Beast now roams the fractured United States of America in ‘East of West’ #16. Deep into an all-consuming war between the splintered nations, the Four Horsemen move to further their individual agendas while resisting the inevitability of The Message.

High-tech weapons. High-stakes missions. High-octane adventure! For the men and women of S.H.I.E.L.D., it’s just another day in the field! Special Agent Phil Coulson brings together the best and the brightest, the gifted and the elite, normal people and superhumans from across the Marvel Universe on an as-needed basis to confront, combat and curtail dangers beyond the scope of any conventional peace-keeping force! Writer Mark Waid and a rotating crew of mission-specific top flight Marvel artists make you one promise: Every issue: Twenty pages. One mission. Unlimited budget. Unlimited imagination. Six periods. And a helper monkey. Welcome to Level Eight. Welcome to ‘S.H.I.E.L.D.’ #1!

Aric of Dacia has laid waste to entire planets and defeated the universe’s most skilled hunters, but how can he kill what he can’t see? A strange new foe with a fiendishly familiar leader has unleashed a relentless offensive on Aric of Dacia, and he doesn’t even know it yet! Be here for the deadliest foe for X-O Manowar has battled yet, as the ARMORINES continue their march towards Aric’s destruction in ‘X-O Manowar’ #31.
