Start Here: Five New Comics For July 4th
Jul 02, 2018
Never get left behind again, thanks to START HERE!
Admittedly, to be a comic book reader, you have to be a special breed. That is, usually, you have to be willing to go backward and forward in continuity – play catch up as best you can or get left behind by the ever-expanding funny book ecosystem.
Except, that’s not entirely true.
Yes, there are a lot of comics out there, but there are plenty of jumping on points because of that fact. Here are 5 titles hitting stores on July 4th, 2018. Each is a new series or the beginning of entirely new story arcs. Simply head to your comic shop and tell your store clerk, “Hey, I’d like to START HERE, please.”
Project Superpowers #0
After 10 years, Project Superpowers is back with an all-new 5 part mini-series! Project Superpowers #0 (MAY181006) heralds the arrival of that mini-series ahead of Project Superpowers #1 in August.
The heroes have escaped imprisonment from Pandora's box and landed in 2018. Is it too late to save the 21st century? Not for these extraordinary individuals!
Quantum Age: From the World of Black Hammer #1
The Black Hammer series has long circulated around the heroes of Spiral City. Now, centuries later, the sacrifice of those heroes has inspired a whole new generation. These new heroes are here to solve the ultimate mystery of the hammer-verse: What happened to the greatest heroes of the 20th century? Find out in Quantum Age: The World of Black Hammer #1 (MAY180320).
Catwoman #1
Catwoman returns in a new monthly series written and drawn by none other than Joëlle Jones. Selina’s new series will spin out of this year’s much-anticipated Bat Wedding in BATMAN #50. But if you’re expecting a romantic tale set during a tropical honeymoon or focused on Selina and Bruce’s newly wedded bliss, think again. Catwoman #1 (MAY180456) puts Selina back on the streets dealing with a mysterious copycat and taking on a brand new, as-yet-unrevealed villain!
New Lieutenants of Metal #1
Meet the New Lieutenants of Metal (MAY180033), a precision strike force ready to face any threat, and the most kick-ass, head-banging heroes ever assembled! Their names are legend: The Mighty Krieg, Vandenborg Riot, Manowarrior, Steppenwulf. Beset on all sides by a roster of vicious foes, the New Lieutenants of Metal are guaranteed to deliver you unto greater comic book glory.
Cosmic Ghost Rider #1
The alternate future version of Frank Castle has become a fan-favorite since debuting in THANOS #13, stealing the spotlight with his crazy antics and unique origin story – and in this story, Cates and Burnett promise to pull out all the stops as Cosmic Ghost Rider’s plans for a better universe come to fruition…however crazy they may be. Ride along with Donny Cates and Dylan Burnett's Cosmic Ghost Rider #1 (MAY180803).
