Estos son algunos títulos que me llamaron la atención en el catálogo de comics (´Previews´) que publica el distribuidor de comics en EUA, Diamond, para que las tiendas de comics pre-ordenen los libros de cada mes.
Este es el inicio de nuevas aventuras para SpiderMan (volumen 5!). Nick Spencer tiene una gran responsabilidad como escritor. Secret Empire pueda no ser su mejor carta de presentación, pero Superior Foes of Spider-Man fue muy buena. Y aún recuerdo cuando escribía Morning Glories en Image, muestra que puede desarrollar historias a largo plazo.
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #1 & #2
NICK SPENCER (W) • RYAN OTTLEY (A/C)
An alien invasion hits New York City and the only one who can stop it is…Spider-Man?! But that’s far from all you’ll find here – a revelation from the past puts Peter Parker’s job, relationships, and whole life in jeopardy! And if even that’s not enough, you’ll see a new roommate, new love interests – and a new villain! Spider-Man goes back to basics courtesy of Nick Spencer (SECRET EMPIRE, SUPERIOR FOES OF SPIDER-MAN) and the Marvel debut of RYAN OTTLEY (Invincible)!
Relanzamiento para el Capitán América. Pensé que ya había superado el tema de Secret Empire. Espero no pierdan mucho tiempo en su goma moral. Y esta portada de Alex Ross está excelente.
CAPTAIN AMERICA #1
TA-NEHISI COATES (W) • LEINIL FRANCIS YU (A)
WRAPAROUND Cover by ALEX ROSS
IT IS WINTER IN AMERICA.
For over 70 years, he has stood in stalwart defense of our country and its people. But in the aftermath of Hydra’s takeover of the nation, Captain America is a figure of controversy, carrying a tarnished shield…and a new enemy is rising!
Who are the Power Elite? And how do they intend to co-opt and corrupt the symbol that is Captain America?
El Cosmic Ghost Rider result tan popular en la serie más reciente de Thanos, que ahora le dedican una mini-serie (por cierto, esa serie está super recomendada). Y lo mejor que se mantiene el escritor, Donny Cates. Mini-spoiler: sí es Frank Castle, el Punisher.
COSMIC GHOST RIDER #1 (of 5)
DONNY CATES (W) • DYLAN BURNETT (A)
Cover by Geoff Shaw
EXPLODING FROM THE PAGES OF THANOS!
Frank Castle was the Punisher. A deal with the devil made him Ghost Rider. A deal with Galactus made him cosmic. A deal with Thanos made him…DEAD?!? Not to worry, he’s coming back, and he’s got a plan to make the universe a better place that’s going to lead him into an even CRAZIER adventure than he’s ever been in! Join hot new comic (and cosmic?) writer Donny Cates (THANOS, DOCTOR STRANGE) as he pushes his wildest creation past the breaking point!
Este evento, Infinity Wars, no me interesaba para nada. Sonaba a aprovechar los éxitos de la película, pero he oído buenos comentarios de Infinity Countdown que está completando publicación como preludio a la historia principal. Y este sería un buen punto para chequear cómo va.

Incluyo al Punisher sólo por la portada. Me gusta el diseño de la armadura de war machine. Lástima que el arte interno es diferente.

Mounstro de tentáculos en un comic de Star Wars!?!? No sean mal pensados! (pobre doctora Aphra…)
STAR WARS: DOCTOR APHRA #22
SI SPURRIER (W) • KEV WALKER (A)
Cover by ASHLEY WITTER
STUCK IN A JUNKYARD JAIL AT WAR. IT CAN’T GET WORSE – RIGHT?
• I mean, unless you add a vengeful FORCE GHOST. And insane MURDERDROIDS. And a BOR BRAIN-LEECH. And a SENTIENT BIOHAZARD…
• Surely even rogue archaeologist DOCTOR APHRA can’t find a way to make things even worse.
• Wrong. Because her current beau and her ex are just about to meet…
