Spider-Man/Red Sonja #1 (of 5); written by Michael Avon Oeming, pencils by Mel Rubi, cover by Michael Turner
Spider-Man and Red Sonja, on a roof top, in those kinds of outfits? Certainly not winter where they are right now...
The wise-cracking Wall-Crawler collides with the She-Devil with a Sword! Longtime Marvel readers know that these two legends have met before -- but that was just the warm-up! They may be from two different eras, but Spider-Man and Red Sonja have both faced the maniacal mage known as Kulan Gath. Now the sadistic sorcerer makes a play for power that will once again bring these two famous heroes together -- but will it be as friends or foes?
Writer Michael Avon Oeming (OMEGA FLIGHT, Red Sonja) and Mel Rubi (Red Sonja) -- plus series cover artist Michael Turner (CIVIL WAR) -- answer the eternal question: What's better in a fight, the proportional strength and speed of a spider, or cold, hard steel and a chain-mail bikini?
Spider-Man/Red Sonja #1 (of 5) from Marvel Comics
Speaking of others clad in a bikini, though not of the metal and instead of the furry kind,
Shanna The She-Devil: Survival of the Fittest. Jimmy Palmiotti, Justin Gray and Khari Evans on four points for the series with modern day pirates, though no hint of the latest albums before release or the simultaneous look see of movies out now. Modern day!
Pirates be coursing about now with
Peter the Pirate Squid from Roman Dirge and Steven Daily. Eight legs and a patch over an eye a pirate squid make.
Drop those Rs right now with the
Hewoes from Bill Maus to come parody the day. Yes, on that show with those mutants and the Japanese kid who loves reading X-Men comics.
Evil comes round for a little visit and it's with Derek Ruiz and Dawid Straus on the
Legend Of Isis looking to see if they can survive the onslaught. Teeth radiated from the phone feel chattery.
All over with the clangy clang with Duncan Rouleau and
Metal Men. Eight bolts to nut down and they're up against a rather big French fry.
Big shoulders, tiny waists and a white picket fence with
Iron and the Maiden. Jason Rubin, Francis Manapul and Joel Gomez in a world of mobsters looking for love, revenge and a second chance.
Took a hint of glint in the eye the other day. And like the painting red on the house, it's a snap for the
First Born from Ron Marz and Stjepan Sejic. Sara Pezzini, the one time wielder of the Witchblade, now ready to be popping child.
Hardcover of the week
So nice we spot it twice. Grab a hold of
Immortal Iron Fist Volume 1: The Last Iron Fist Story Premiere in the hardcover format from Matt Fraction, Ed Brubaker, David Aja and Travel Foreman and chi that block out into smithereens. Say it again, "smithereens"! Now that's a great word.

Heroes For Hire #1; written by Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray, cover art and pencils by Billy Tucci, inks by Tom Palmer
Daughters of the Dragon no more, the band is banding together for another hit of that freelancing feel. Once were only Power Man (Luke Cage) and Iron Fist (Danny Rand), now a whole roster for the timestamp and clocking of superhero work works their magic.
CIVIL WAR Tie-in!
As CIVIL WAR rages through the Marvel Universe, an unlikely group of heroes have gathered together to hunt down and capture criminals who refuse to sign the Registration Act.
In response to the overwhelming number of masked fugitives on the loose, Misty Knight and Colleen Wing use their bail bonds skills, underworld connections and government funding to lead an all-new Heroes for Hire into battle.
Action, adventure, crime, beautiful women and Kung Fu chaos come together in this explosive new series from writers Justin Gray & Jimmy Palmiotti with art by Billy Tucci!
Featuring Black Cat, Shang Chi-The Master Of Kung Fu, Paladin, Misty Knight, Colleen Wing And The All-New Tarantula.
Kicking off another crazy that Batman has to nail down, Matt Wagner tells the tale of
Batman And The Mad Monk. First of six parts from DC Comics.
Avengers... wrong one. This is the
Justice League Of America with the chest thrusting we all know the super heroes love strutting. A new ongoing from Brad Meltzer, Ed Benes and Sandra Hope out of DC.
Stand alone is a one shot does and Jim Valentino and Chance Wolf do with
Shadowhawk One Shot from Image Comics.
Shooting from the hip of Arcana Studios, Shannon Denton, Keith Giffen and Matt Jacobs go toe-to-toe with
Grunts. World War II, were a squad of Americans stumble upon a Nazi super weapon. Rubble ensues in the first of three.
Picking up where things left off before the drop off, Arcana wander through
Dragons Lair. Andy Mangels and Fabio Laguna tap that joystick like you know the understep will fall away in a blinking flash.
A mysterious force seeps out of the shadows looking to sap the magic rap, in
Soulfire: Chaos Reign. Swimming from Aspen Studios, J. T. Krul, Marcus To, Jason Gorder, Don Ho and Beth Sotelo with the sleeves at work.
