Hey everyone, me again. A massive thank you to Pauline who did a sterling job looking after the weekly updates in my absence. The team have certainly been busy recently and I’ve trained two new publishers this week already. Exciting times, but what of this weeks highlights?
Having delivered Kick Ass and Powers, Icon continue to send us awesome comics. This week sees the release of both Criminal and Incognito written by Ed Brubaker (The Death of Captain America) and art by Sean Phillips (Marvel Zombies). Incognito is described as the most insane and evil super-villain comic you’ll ever read. The comic deals with former villain Zack Overkill, who is in the Witness Protection Program after giving testimony against The Black Death. Zack is required to take a drug that eliminates his super abilities and given a job delivering mail in an office.
Trying to escape the boredom of a normal life, Zack experiments with illegal drugs. It quickly becomes obvious they interfere with the power-blocking drug and he once again has his super strength. He begins wearing a mask again and searches for action in the streets and back alleys acting as a vigilante rather than a super-villain to avoid being arrested for violating his parole agreement. A great read.
From IDW we have more Star Trek and Transformers, plus a new series called Witch and Wizard: Battle for Shadowland based on James Patterson’s #1 novel. Oh and before you ask, we are still eagerly waiting for the next Locke & Key. The wait will be worth it though as they are doing something extra special for us…
