In which Shawn looks at the New Releases and lets you know which books she is most excited about!
1) Scott Pilgrim GN vol 6 Scott Pilgrim’s Finest Hour
The hype surrounding Bryan Lee O’Malley’s final book and the movie Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World is crazy! In this volume Scott must defeat the final Evil Ex in order to be able to date his love interest, Ramona Flowers. These books are a lot of fun to read and they just keep getting better and better. I am a big fan of Scott Pilgrim’s publisher, Oni Press, and I really hope that they get a lot of attention from Scott Pilgrim fans.
2) Red Mass for Mars #4
Finally, the conclusion to Red Mass for Mars is out! I really enjoy b’s work, whether creator owned or not. Shield is awesome, Fantastic Four is fun and Pax Romana is/was engaging.
3) Zatanna #3
This is the conclusion to the first story arc and the last of interiors from Stephane Roux, hopefully not forever because he is an amazing artist. But don’t be too sad, Stephane will continue to do covers and the wonderful Paul Dini will still be writing it.
So I pick up this book and the cover is in 3-D with instructions to look on the back cover for a free pair of 3-D glasses. And when you flip it over there aren’t real 3-D glasses. Oh Deadpool, you get me everytime. You are cute and funny for now, but you better be careful or the gags and gimicks will start to wear thin. I’m looking at you Deadpool #1000 and Deadpoolmax (which could be awesome because Dave Lapham and Kyle Baker are working on it, but still we don’t need another Deadpool title).
5) Finding Nemo Losing Dory #1
I’m digging the cover! And I like the interior art. Both are by Jake Myler who is able to give life and emotion to fish which is no small feat.
