Weekly Comics Discussion – December 21, 2005

This week’s shipping
list
includes a number of notable items. Those
that caught my eye are listed below.

DC Comics

  • GREEN LANTERN – This finally comes out.
  • GREEN LANTERN CORPS RECHARGE #3 (OF 6) –
    Continuing this limited
    series.
  • INFINITE CRISIS #3 (OF 7) – Sure to be a top
    seller.

Marvel Comics

  • BOOK OF LOST SOULS #3 – The series by JMS
    continues.
  • FANTASTIC FOUR #533 – If memory serves, this
    launches the latest
    round of “Hulk vs. Thing.” I may be thinking of that
    an issue early,
    though.
  • FANTASTIC FOUR BY J. MICHAEL STRACZYNSKI VOL 1
    PREMIERE HC –
    Collecting the first storyline in Straczynski’s
    run.
  • SPIDER-WOMAN ORIGIN #1 (OF 5) – Spider-Woman gets
    the “origin”
    treatment. She seems to be a big deal at Marvel right
    now, with the
    recent Essential, this miniseries, and her own story
    arc in New
    Avengers
    .
  • SUPREME POWER HYPERION #3 (OF 5) – JMS continues
    this bridge
    between Supreme Power and the new
    Squadron Supreme
    launching next March.
  • ULTIMATE GALACTUS BOOK 2 SECRET TP – I’ll be
    picking up this
    collection.
  • ULTIMATE WOLVERINE VS HULK #1 (OF 6) – By
    Lindelof, this series
    launches today. It seems to be solicited on a
    bi-monthly basis.
  • ULTIMATE X-MEN FANTASTIC FOUR SPECIAL – To be
    followed by next
    month’s Ultimate Fantastic Four / X-Men Special.

  1. Book of Lost Souls?
    So is “Book of Lost Souls” a Marvel Superhero Title, or a standalone of some sort?

      standalone of some sort?

      It’s a standalone title in a universe of JMS’ creation.
      It’s published by Marvel through their ICON imprint, which
      means it’s creator-owned.
