Are you ready to return to the Watchmen Universe?

Here is the list of new comics, trade paperbacks and more shipping 6/6/2012. As always check with your retailer for availability, as not all releases may be on sale in all areas at the same time.

‘Before Watchmen: Minutemen’ #1, “Little did we know that poor boy would lead to the end of us all.” Plus: Don’t miss the Crimson Corsair backup story by writer Len Wein and artist John Higgins! This issue is also offered as a combo pack edition with a redemption code for a digital download of this issue. Mature Readers.

Jim Downing has long been a man lost – confused by his missing past, hounded at every turn and manipulated by forces beyond his control. No longer. With his past finally coming into focus and a full understanding of the man he once was just out of reach, Jim embraces the full might of his horrific hell-born powers to piece together a mystery that has ties to the very core of the Spawn universe. Old enemies will return. New dangers will emerge. And events woven within the complex fabric of Spawn’s rich mythology will begin to coalesce in ‘Spawn’ #220.

In ‘Avengers vs. X-Men’ #5 the fiery conclusion of Act One is brought to you by Matt Fraction and John Romita Jr. Clashing on a lunar battlefield, the tide of the conflict will be turned as The Phoenix takes its host… All hope is lost!

The return of the Valiant Universe continues as the first superhero legend of the modern age is reborn. Teenager Peter Stenchek is out of work, on the skids, and unbeknownest to him, a psionic-powered “harbinger” with the potential to reshape the course of human history. Toyo Harada is a wealthy business magnate, a respected philanthropist, and the most powerful harbinger of all; or so he thought. As they forge an uneasy alliance, will Harada offer Peter a chance for redemption, or attempt to induct him into a secret network of conspiracy, subversion and control? Peter is about to discover that he’s not alone in the world and, soon, the generation who has nothing will take on the man who has everything in ‘Harbinger’ #1 .

All this plus… ‘Detective Comics’ #10! Batman must defend Wayne Enterprises from espionage and himself from the menace of Hypnotic! The latest chapter in the Two-Face backup story. This issue is also offered as a combo pack edition with a redemption code for a digital download of this issue.
