STAFF PICKS! for July 2, 2014! - The Comic Stop


Staff PicksHEADQUARTERS


Todd’s Picks!


Big Trouble in Little China #2: This book has the look, feel, and spirit of the film and is wonderful to read. Get on board with the continuing adventures of Jack Burton!


Black Widow #8: Natasha and Bucky get together for beers. And beating people up.


Deadpool vs. X-Force #1: This latest “Deadpool vs.” title will act as the palate cleanser before the main course of “Deadpool vs. Dracula” and the high-caloric dessert of “Deadpool vs. Hawkeye.”


Earth 2 #25: Superman vs. Superman vs. Darkseid. BATTLE!


Infinity Gauntlet Omnibus HC: The entire epic, in one beautiful hardcover volume!


Legendary Star-Lord: A new ongoing series about the roguiest rogue who ever rogued.


Rocket Raccoon #1: I’m still waiting for DC to bring back Ch’p, but until then this is the best rodent in comics!


Scooby Doo Team Up #5: WONDER WOMAN guest-stars in this issue. Velma and Daphne go full-on Amazon along side Diana.


Southern Bastards #3: This book is good and disturbing. Jason Aaron is working on a masterpiece.


Superman Unchained #7: After a 3-month delay, this soon-to-be-over series limps towards the finish line.


EVERETT


Heather’s Picks!


East of West #13: The Son of Death is free and on the move. I’m sure it’s totally fine and no one’s plans will be thwarted at all!


Moon Knight #5: This bizarre crime procedural continues with a rescue mission into a mob-infested abandoned hotel. I do love an unlikely, unhinged hero. I don’t love that we’ll soon be losing Warren Ellis as writer of this book. Brian Wood’s no slouch, but I like it just the way it is and I hope he keeps up the momentum.


Twilight Zone #6: I’ve been pleasantly surprised by this book. I was wary because of my love of the classic show, but I think they’ve captured the spirit of it, and even Serling’s voice, quite nicely.


Woods #3: It’s not looking good for our ragtag band of nerds as they try to figure out where they are and why. Meanwhile, the situation at the school-turned-base-camp devolves.


Kaitlyn’s Picks!


Rocket Raccoon #1: Rocket the “raccoon” is getting his own series! And it starts with this issue! On Wednesday!


Southern Bastards #3: Redneck organized crime is the best organized crime. It’s time for Earl Tubb to fight back for a town he claims to have no feelings for.


ALSO ARRIVING AT CS2: GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY Heroclix, and new WONDER WOMAN action figure, and the Absolute edition of ALL-STAR BATMAN AND ROBIN THE BOY WONDER will give you plenty to do over the holiday weekend!


REDMOND


Joe’s Picks!


No picks from Joe this week, but be sure to ask him what he recommends next time you see him in the store!


Jared’s Picks!


Guardians of the Galaxy Galaxy’s Most Wanted #1: Groot and Rocket do some bounty hunting, but who is the target really? Also includes reprint of Thor #316, with Thor fighting Drax!


Miles Morales Ultimate Spider-Man #3: Peter Parker is alive, but more importantly, Miles has to tell Katie he’s Spider-Man. Or thinks he does, anyway. Miles meets Norman Osborne.


The Woods #3: Night falls, and so my watch begins. On an alien planet. No wall. Monsters all around, the cover one looks like a dinosaur. This planet is somewhat less than friendly.


ALSO ARRIVING AT CS3: THANOS rises in a new hardcover compilation, GREEN ARROW targets your toy shelf with a new action figure, and the new DOCTOR WHO car magnet will turn your Taurus into a Tardis!


U-DISTRICT


Sean’s Picks!


Cosplayers #2: Dash Shaw’s (aka Full Nelson’s arch nemesis) latest installment in the glorification of cosplay.


East of West #13: Of all the terrific titles coming out of Image line up, this one might be the most impressive. Just gets better & better with every issue.


ALSO ARRIVING AT CS4: More ROCKET RACCOON #1 Variant Covers than you can shake a stick at, a new VAMPIRE HUNTER D novel, and TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLE minifigs! Cowabunga, Dude!
