New Comic Books This Week – February 17th

Here is the list of new comic books, trade paperbacks and more shipping on 2/17/2016. As always, check with your retailer for availability, as not all releases may be on sale in all areas at the same time. Here is what’s on my pull-list this week.

Lara Croft is pursuing a lost truth about the world that just might unlock the secret to defeating death! She becomes entangled in a search for a rare mushroom said to grant immortality and a lethal new enemy that just won’t die! ‘Tomb Raider 2016’ #1 continues where the Rise of the Tomb Raider game left off!

Twister continues to plague our heroes from the shadows, a deadly reunion draws near. But as hope fades, a mysterious third party emerges to join the fray… find out who in ‘Titans Hunt’ #5!

New revelations about Huck’s origins come to light in ‘Huck’ #4! If you aren’t reading Huck it is not too late, Mark Millar and Rafael Albuquerque are knocking it out of the park with this book.

“REBEL JAIL” STARTS in ‘Star Wars’ #16! The Rebels travel to a prison base having taken an important captive in VADER DOWN. Unfortunately, they aren’t the only ones with their eyes on the prisoners. The adventures of Luke Skywalker and the Rebel Alliance continue!

What’s to Love: It’s time again to be excellent to each other! We showed just how much we love Bill & Ted with 2015’s Bill & Ted’s Most Triumphant Return, and since 2016 is the 25th anniversary of Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, why not celebrate with a new mini-series that sends the lovable duo to Hell? Plus, all Subscription covers in this mini-series will feature a unique Wyld Stallyns album cover created by some of the industry’s top talents!
What It Is: Bill & Ted are back for a brand-new miniseries, this time with the Imagine Agents team of Brian Joines and Bachan at the helm. It’s time to get the band back together! Bill & Ted and the Princesses will have to reunite with some historic friends to knock down the Devil’s door and get their friend Death back. With the help of Rufus, Billy the Kid, Joan of Arc, and more, this is the showdown that will rock the supernatural world. History vs. Hell. Too bad Hell has some surprises up its sleeve… in ‘Bill and Ted Go to Hell’ #1 from Boom! Studios.

In ‘Archie’ #6, Archie and Jughead are on the outs with each other, and now Archie has no one to help him against the fury that is Hiram Lodge! Not even Veronica wants to go up against her own father! Rising star comics artist Veronica Fish (Howard the Duck, the Riverdale CW promo image) joins the legendary Mark Waid for another brand new issue of the hit series!

All this plus… ‘Sex Criminals’ #14… Why can’t we all just get along? Because then the comic would be boring.
