 In which Shawn (formerly Reynolds, presently Daughhetee) looks at the New Releases and lets you know which books she is most excited about!

1) Iron Man Legacy #1

Marvel is putting out a new ongoing  Iron Man series just in time for the movie. Iron Man Legacy is going into Iron Man’s past and telling his untold stories. This issue also reprints his origin story. Black Widow #1 is also out this week!

2) Flash #1

Flash’s new ongoing series starts today! It is part of the Brightest Day crossover (Brightest Day #0 also came out today!).

3) Dan DeCarlo’s Jetta HC

This is the first inIDW’s Good Girl Art Library. It not only reprints Jetta issues but it also includes pin-ups from some super talented artists like Colleen Coover, Molly Crabapple, Andrew Pepoy and Robert Ullman.

4) Mercury SC/HC

Mercury is the latest young adult novel from Hope Larson. It takes place in Nova Scotia in two different time periods. I picked up one from Larson at MoCCA this past weekend. It is always delightful getting to talk to her. I also picked up Dash Shaw’s Body World which also came out today. So many good books and first issues came out today!

5) The Light #1

The writer from Olympus, Nathan Edmundson, and the artist from Surrogates, Brett Weldele, weave a horror story about a virus and a mysterious light.
