Wednesday Wants
Each week, Barry raises from his slumber of gin and cigarettes, dusts himself off, sees his shadow—six more weeks of winter!
Zeus Comics manager gives us his picks for this “I can’t believe it’s not Final Crisis” new comics Wednesday. Check out Zeus Comics for more comic goodness.
SECRET WARRIORS #1
He’s back! After a long hiatus and subsequent return in Secret Invasion, Nick Fury is back to lead the next generation of heroes in a saga set to unlock the deepest secrets of the Marvel Universe. Written by Jonathan Hickman (creator of Nightly News) and Brian Michael Bendis (pick a Marvel title, he’s probably written it), with art by Stefano Caselli.
CABLE #11
Cable’s still in the future with the so-called “mutant messiah”, Bishop’s still crazy, so no news there. However, Phonogram fans take note! Jamie McKelvie kicks off his two-issue arc along with regular writer Duane Swierczynski, as Cable and his young charge take another blind step into the far-flung future, facing danger around every turn.
SECRET SIX #6
Last month’s jaw-dropping shocker of an ending left us almost speechless, so we expect writer Gail Simone to leave us in total sweaty-palmed terror by the end of this one! The Secret Six—-or what’s left of them—-are determined to complete their mission to Gotham City, but what they don’t realize is just how dangerous the city has become since a certain Dark Knight’s “departure”. All that, plus more fantastic art form Nicola Scott and an “Origins & Omens” back-up!
FINAL CRISIS: LEGION OF THREE WORLDS #3
Grant Morrison’s chaotically epic Crisis may be done, but for the heroes of the 31st century, the madness has just begun. As the Legionnaires attempt to recruit the last of the Green Lantern Corps, Earth falls under attack from Superboy Prime and his Legion of Super-Villains. Three Brainies are better than one, and if they can stop snapping at each other for half a panel, they may find a way to pull together their three Legions and score a victory. Written by Geoff Johns, art by George Perez and Scott Koblish.
