Here at Brainstorm Comics and Gaming, we fully understand that you work very hard for your money. In order to ensure you don’t go home with a book that misses the mark for your entertainment dollar, we give you our top five picks for comics released this week. The High Five consists of new story lines, first issues, first appearances and big happenings–anything that we think a comic collector should pay particular attention to. First and foremost, however, we want to make sure they are great reads.
This preview will only cover the titles chosen and their solicits. To hear why the comics were chosen, go to our YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMVhh7_2R9gcAUHIeJD3VOQ) in order to subscribe to see our weekly High Five segment.
Without further delay, let’s move on to this week’s High Five…..
5) AVENGERS #44
ENTER THE PHOENIX: THE FIERY FINALE!
It all comes down to this. The final battle to decide who will wield the awesome cosmic power of the Phoenix Force. You don’t want to miss… the debut of the all-new Phoenix!
4) BATMAN #107
Tensions are sky-high in Gotham City following the events at Arkham Asylum, and public opinion and unrest are starting to boil over. The Dark Knight has his hands full juggling the investigation of the reappearance of an old enemy and the rise of a new gang in Gotham called the Unsanity Collective… Gotham City is getting more dangerous by the minute! Plus, in part one of “Legend of the Ghost-Maker,” James Tynion IV and Ricardo Lopez Ortiz tell the most insane tale of action and adventure featuring Batman’s frenemy Ghost-Maker! This one is not to be missed!
3) GREEN LANTERN #1
As this new Green Lantern series begins, the newly formed United Planets and the Guardians of the Universe hold an intergalactic summit to decide who can best serve and protect the cosmos from danger. With the majority of Green Lanterns called back to Oa, John Stewart arrives alongside Teen Lantern Keli Quintela, whose powerful gauntlet could be one of the most powerful and unstable weapons in the universe. With the entire landscape of the universe in flux, is this the end of the Green Lantern Corps…or a new beginning?
2) SILVER COIN #1
1) GEIGER #1
Who are the scavengers of a dying earth? GEIGER is set in the years since a nuclear war ravaged the planet, desperate outlaws battle for survival in a world of radioactive chaos. Out past the poisoned wasteland lives a man even the Nightcrawlers and Organ People fear. Some name him Joe Glow, others call him The Meltdown Man. But his name… is Geiger.
