Shawn Says: Spotlight on New Releases April 28, 2010

In which Shawn looks at the New Releases and lets you know which ones she is most excited about!

1) Invincible Iron Man #25

This issue introduces Iron Man’s new costume!

2) Wilson HC

This is Daniel Clowes’s first original graphic novel. The story is told through a series of one page “strips” using different artistic styles. Wilson is about a man’s journey of self discovery as he tries to reconnect with his family.

3) Neil Gaiman Instructions HC

Gaiman gives us instructions on what to do if we are in a fairy tale world. It is beautifully illustrated by Charles Vess. Definitely worth a look!

4) Fraggle Rock #1

Some of you may remember Jim Henson’s series Fraggle Rock. Being a Henson/Muppet uber-fan I know I remember! And I own them all on DVD, but I digress. This first issue contain three short stories. The last story is done by Jeffery Brown (so is the Uncle Traveling Matt cover). Check out the FCBD Mouse Guard/Fraggle Rock flip book for a taste of this new series!

5) Garrison #1

Jeff Marriotte and Francesco Francavilla bring us a creator owned book from Wildstorm. This is the first issue of a six-issue miniseries about a killer. The only question is: Is he good or his he bad. I am really glad that Wildstorm does this and I really hope that they continue to support creator owned endeavors!
