    2025/07/11
    It’s been a milestone week in the world of comic books, with breaking news and fresh releases capturing the imagination of fans everywhere. The biggest headline is the official worldwide launch of James Gunn’s new DC Universe, ushered in by the highly anticipated Superman movie. While Creature Commandos on HBO Max gave fans a sneak peek months ago, Gunn himself says that Superman marks the real beginning. With this cinematic debut, DC’s interconnected universe officially starts its “Gods and Monsters” chapter, setting the stage for upcoming projects like Supergirl starring Milly Alcock, and the return of Peacemaker with its second season just around the corner. The next wave of stories promises to expand the DC Universe on both screens and in print, bringing fresh energy to legendary characters and new faces alike.

    The comic shelves have also been alive with standout issues this week. Supergirl continues to earn rave reviews for both its storytelling and artistry, with the latest issue being hailed as a perfect ten. On the lighter side, Marvel is having retro fun with its Swimsuit Special: Friends, Foes & Rivals. The nostalgia-powered one-shot pokes fun at the 1990s Swimsuit Specials and, while deliberately silly, offers readers a throwback to an era of comics infamous for its playful excess.

    Meanwhile, Marvel is stirring up excitement on multiple fronts. Fans of Hulk are celebrating the announcement of Return to Planet Hulk, a special one-shot reuniting writer Greg Pak and artist Carlo Pagulayan. This story returns to the beloved gladiatorial world of Sakaar just in time for the 20th anniversary of the original Planet Hulk arc. At the same time, Marvel is pushing its boundaries with Marvel Zombies: Red Band, a new limited series that promises horror, humor, and gore in equal measure, catering to fans eager for edgier content.

    Original stories are making waves too, with titles like Radiant Black wrapping major arcs with surprise twists, and The Power Fantasy turning superhero lore on its head through ambitious, philosophical storytelling and breathtaking artwork. And over in the DC Universe’s publishing slate, Batman finds himself tormented in Arkham as Bane’s ultimate plan unfolds, The Flash faces the fiery menace of Heat Wave, and Wonder Woman finds herself on a mysterious, mouse-infested island in a quirky new arc that’s already sparking curiosity among readers.

    Beyond single issues, industry news buzzes with the return of fan-favorite creators, chart-topping graphic novels, and previews for future blockbusters that will keep collectors and newcomers alike eagerly awaiting each Wednesday. Jack Kirby, the legendary king of comics, has been honored with New York City renaming his birthplace “Yancy Street,” a fitting tribute to his legacy.

    With big-screen launches shaking up shared universes, inventive indie hits, and classic characters being reimagined in new and unexpected ways, it’s an electrifying moment for comic book fans. Whether your passion is for cosmic epics or tongue-in-cheek nostalgia, there’s never been a better time to jump into the pages of adventure.

    2025/07/09
    The world of comic books is buzzing with excitement and transformation this July, as both Marvel and DC unleash a wave of new stories, dramatic events, and surprise releases that have fans eagerly flipping through the latest issues. This week saw comic shops stocked with fresh titles, variant covers, and the start of what could become one of the defining X-Men events of the decade.

    Marvel has set the stage for a major shakeup with the announcement of Age of Revelation, a new event launching this October to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Age of Apocalypse. The saga propels the X-Men a full decade into the future, centering on Doug Ramsey—now Revelation—who’s evolved his mutant powers to shape worlds with words. What appears at first to be a mutant utopia, crafted by Revelation alongside Cyclops’ team, soon reveals darker undertones: humanity is vanishing, and not everyone is on board. Already, select comic stores have started receiving limited “shadow drop” editions of X-Men: Age of Revelation #0, offering fans a tantalizing preview of the dystopian drama on the horizon. The full storyline will ripple throughout Marvel’s line, spawning new titles like Amazing X-Men and unexpected crossovers such as Radioactive Spider-Man and Iron and Frost, with more series details to be revealed soon.

    On the DC side, Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman continue to headline hotly anticipated releases. Superman #28 and the Absolute Superman and Absolute Wonder Woman runs are drawing attention with multiple variant covers and brisk sales in recent months. Fans of Batman are also anticipating the upcoming Batman #161 by Jim Lee and Jeph Loeb, as well as the new spin on Gotham’s past in Batman: Gotham by Gaslight – A League for Justice, taking the caped crusader back to an alternate Victorian era.

    Meanwhile, the Marvel Swimsuit Special: Friends, Foes & Rivals #1 splashes onto shelves, offering a lighter take on iconic and obscure characters enjoying some sun, while Jeff the Land Shark continues his cosmic adventures in IT’S JEFF: Infinity Paws #1 and the latest issue of Miles Morales: Spider-Man delivers new twists for the beloved Spider-hero. The Fantastic Four make headlines with the launch of a new #1 issue, promising a blend of classic cosmic adventure and unexpected time travel mishaps that scatter Marvel’s first family throughout Earth’s history.

    Crossovers and mashups continue to capture the imagination—Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x Naruto both sit high on June’s top sellers list. On the indie front, series like Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees and The Unchosen are generating critical buzz for their original stories.

    Collectors can also enjoy special printings, facsimile editions, and a new Fantastic Four bookazine loaded with interviews and retrospectives. And as always, variant covers remain a sought-after prize, whether it’s a retrovision take on Psylocke or eye-catching wraparounds for the latest Marvel and DC releases.

    With such a dynamic mix from superhero epics to indie darlings, the comic book landscape is alive with creativity and surprises, giving every fan a reason to visit their local shop this week and beyond.

Tom Holland’s Spider-Man will soon share the big screen with Jon Bernthal’s Punisher and, possibly, Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Placed between the mega-events Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, this film could see Peter Parker entangled in a multiversal crisis, with fan speculation swirling around the fate of alternate Spider-Man variants.

Meanwhile, fan-favorite characters like Magik are taking center stage in their ongoing series, with the latest issue drawing interest for its twisty plotlines and magical mayhem.

    The symbiote corner of the Marvel Universe is experiencing a seismic shift as Knull, the God of Symbiotes, returns from the dead, setting the stage for a showdown that could reshape the cosmic order. Eddie Brock, longtime host of Venom, faces a major transformation—an event that’s capturing attention as fans try to unravel the mystery of Venom’s new host and what it means for the web of symbiote lore.

Nostalgia echoes as fans mourn the passing of Jack Betts, known for his role in Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man, reflecting on the enduring legacy of J. Jonah Jameson and his endless crusade against the web-head.

    This summer, the comics world is alive with reinvention, nostalgia, and wild experimentation—a testament to the power of heroes, villains, and the dedicated creators who keep these worlds spinning.
