06-03-24 | Next week seems to be all about team-ups. Both DC Comics and Marvel are treating us to a slate of new titles which combine our favourite characters in new and unusual ways. Two heroes in one comic? Surely that means: more bang for your buck!
TEEN TITANS YEAR ONE
They don’t make ‘em like they used to! Teen Titans Year One collects the six issues series which revisits the origins of this classic superhero team. With the Justice League out of action the Titans form to save the world. Plenty of group action and angsty character development in this 2008 classic!
SYMBIOTE SPIDER-MAN 2099 #1
Two of Spider-Man’s most beloved characters, Spider-Man 2099 and Venom, are merged in one. See the alien symbiote take possession of Marvel’s futuristic Spidey. If you thought Spider-Man 2099 was wicked, wait until he starts wielding his newfound alien powers! Venom 2099 is along for the ride too.
BATMAN / DYLAN DOG #1
America’s greatest superhero teams up with Italy’s finest monster hunter. Both Batman and Dylan Dog inhabit a gothic world filled with tragedy and deceit. No wonder they make such a great team! Having already been published in Italy, this essential European team-up now arrives stateside.
BLACK WIDOW & HAWKEYE #1
Thanks to the Marvel movies, Black Widow and Hawkeye are experiencing the peak of their popularity. Which makes their very own title, by artists Stephanie Phillips and Paolo Villanelli, the perfect jumping on point for new readers. Join Marvel in celebrating their sixtieth anniversary!
NAPALM BABY #1
Looking for something less whimsical? Creative duo Remender and Bengal explore the implications of religion and super powers in this stunning graphic novel. Napalm Baby deals with a child raised by a cult into believing she is a god. Another winner from Image Comics, sure to become a classic.
