New Comic Books This Week – August 1st

Here is the list of new comic books, trade paperbacks and more shipping on 7/25/2018. 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.

Infinity Wars #1

Marvel Comics

(W) Gerry Duggan (A/CA) Mike Deodato

As the Infinity Stones come to Earth, so too comes the war for control over them. But none who wield the stones know the truth about the power they contain…or what it would take to bring them to their END. The nature of the universe itself hangs in the balance as we learn the answer to the question on everyone’s lips since “Infinity Wars Prime”: Who Is Requiem?

Batman #52

DC Comics

(W) Tom King (A/CA) Lee Weeks

“Cold Days” continues! The jury in the Mr. Freeze trial is hopelessly deadlocked because one man won’t vote guilty-and that man is Bruce Wayne. Freeze’s defense is that Batman used excessive force, making his arrest illegal, and Bruce is the one man who actually knows for sure what went down between Batman and his ice-cold nemesis. And if Bruce is right, that means everything he’s devoted himself to as the Caped Crusader is a lie; he is hurting more than helping. With Dick Grayson putting the Batsuit back on to keep Gotham City safe while Bruce is sequestered, could this be the out Bruce needs to discard the cape and cowl forever?

The Walking Dead #182

Image Comics/Skybound

(W) Robert Kirkman (A) Charlie Adlard & Various (CA) Charlie Adlard, Dave Stewart

John, the savage new leader of the Saviors, has turned over a new leaf… just in time for an alliance with The Commonwealth?

The Seeds #1

Dark Horse Comics

(W) Ann Nocenti (A/CA) David Aja

The bees are swarming. What do they know that we don’t? The rich have built walls around their wealth and scramble to escape rockets. The romantic and the ruthless cross over into the lawless wilds of Zone-B. A few cantankerous aliens have come to collect the last dregs of humanity’s essence for the celestial embryo bank. One of them falls in love.

Project Superpowers #1

D. E.

(W) Rob Williams (A) Sergio Davila (CA) Francesco Mattina

The Project Superpowers heroes came from the past, now they have to prove their relevance in the modern world. A 21st Century threat is coming for us all. What dread secrets does The Death Defying Devil hold? The Lighthouse will rise and the Spirit of The American Flag will take on a new host. But will it be enough? Can superheroes still save the day?

All this, plus…

Leviathan #1

Image Comics

(W) John Layman (A/CA) Nick Pittara

Poor Ryan DeLuca didn’t buy enough beer for his party, and while he was out on a beer run his idiot buddies busted out some mystical arcana and performed a summoning ceremony — a ceremony that summoned a giant monster from hell! Get ready for an eye-popping, face-melting, reality-defying, nonstop rush of pure adrenaline!
