Spidey and Sonja, slinging on a roof-top

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.
