I'm def gonna get SFOSM since it's been getting built up for months and months now and will be pretty integral going forward. And it's a pretty small week, so I'll check out Avengers AI. I like the cast but had initial reservations due to the abundance of Avenger titles.

Thanks TMoB

I'm pretty sure I'm dropping Green Lantern, but I'll skim it. If nothing in there makes me want to buy it, I'll leave it in the shop. And I'm not really planning on buying Superior Foes of Spider-Man, but I love Shocker, so it's worth a skim at the least.

Other than that, excited for what's up there. Phantom Stranger has been excellent of late and I'm excited to see Heaven. I've been curious about Pandora for a while, so it's good to finally get to read it. And Batman Incorporated has been fantastic for a long while. After a disappointing filler last issue, I'm glad to get back to the actual story.

EMERALD CITY OF OZ #1 $3.99 - (JH recommended! It's the only book this week that stands out. With DC, I'd probably go with Swamp Thing, as the new writer is doing pretty good with it. Green Arrow is so much better, too; but, he really shouldn't be so young. Even with the New 52, it makes no sense.

Yeah, I loved Ollie prior to the relaunch. I just can't wrap my brain around this young version. I planned on picking his book up at #1 but didn't like him being young and passed on it. Then I skimmed it again, planning to buy it, when Lemire started but nothing drew me in.

I really WANT to buy Swamp Thing. I picked up (and later sold) the first twelve or so issues and enjoyed them, but it was just too demented for me. Maybe this new writer would be better suited for me. I'll skim what he's come out with so far. Is it still as dark as Snyder's run?

As for Emerald City of Oz, that's part of that ongoing Oz mini deal, with Scottie Young, right? I've always been curious about that. I might check it out in trade sometime. It's something that both my daughters and I would probably enjoy.

I read the last two issues of Phantom Stranger, and you are right. It's much better than the first three I read and later gave up on. I just don't see how the last issue tied into the Trinity event. Maybe the next issue will be more clear.

I think it was a loose tagging, but I read in an interview that the Heaven story is the actual tie-in. And yeah, I nearly dropped it around issue 3 or 4, but then it picked up right around then. The back issues are worth looking up.


And hey! Owl #1 comes out next week! Welcome back Project Superpowers!

IRON MAN #12
VENOM #37

Maybe:
AVENGERS A.I. #1
SUPERIOR FOES OF SPIDER-MAN #1

Very small week to kick off July. It is mostly for that reason that I have these two "maybes" for new releases this week. No surprise, the new Avengers title kicks off at $3.99. I do question whether Spider-Man can support another spin-off title with sales starting to dwindle on VENOM and SCARLET SPIDER (albeit after 2-3 years), AVENGING SPIDER-MAN needing a relaunch and MORBIUS being axed. It is also the second team book in a couple of years that Shocker and Boomerang are regular members of (after a stint on the Jeff Parker run on THUNDERBOLTS). As for AVENGERS AI, I'm curious due to Pym, Victor Mancha, and Mark Waid's great epilogue issue to AOU.
