Bruce Wayne has returned from his worldwide quest to take the law into his own hands! This issue reveals the early steps of building everything that surrounds Batman – the costume, the cave, the car, the gadgets!

“SOMETHING TO FEAR” concludes! The survivors attempt to pick up the pieces after what they’ve just lived through.
FIRST IMAGE PRINTING! In almost every slasher movie, there’s one girl who makes it all the way to the end. She’s the survivor… the last girl. Meet Cassie Hack, the lone survivor of an attack by a vicious slasher called The Lunch Lady. Now, Cassie – along with her monstrous partner, Vlad – travels the country, hunting down other slashes before they can leave a trail of blood and terror. This collection includes the critically acclaimed one-shots “Euthanized,” “Girls Gone Dead,” and “Comic Book Carnage.” It also includes never-before-seen production art, sketches, and pin ups, as well as a new short story, “Slashing through the Snow.” Also included is an introduction by award winning author, Craig Thompson (Blankets)
Between keeping New York City safe as Spider-Man, being a member of two Avengers teams and the FF, and his day job at Horizon Labs, Peter Parker’s life is as crazy as it’s ever been. And it’s about to get even crazier. Welcome to Spider-Island, where a million New Yorkers suddenly possess Spider-Man’s powers – but none of the responsibility! Can Spidey play world-saving super hero while the Big Apple gets eaten alive from the inside out when he’s suddenly not quite so special? When he’s surrounded by a million people just as powerful as him? When even his girlfriend is web-swinging through the city? And just wait until you meet J. Jonah Jameson, the Spectacular Spider-Mayor! Collecting AMAZING SPIDER-MAN (1963) #666-673 and the “Infested” material from #659-660 and #662-664, VENOM (2011) #6-9, SPIDER-ISLAND: DEADLY FOES, and SPIDER-ISLAND SPOTLIGHT.
He’s been Bucky and Captain America – now, James Barnes returns to the role of the Winter Soldier! They’re the super-spies of the Marvel Universe – and when ex-Russian sleeper agents awaken, Bucky and the Black Widow must go on the hunt for men trained by the Winter Soldier himself. But when the trail leads to Latveria, Bucky comes face-to-face with Dr. Doom! Can Bucky and the Widow prevent war with Latveria? Can Bucky stop the sleepers he himself trained? Eisner Award-winning writer Ed Brubaker and superstar artist Butch Guice kick off an explosive new era for Bucky Barnes! Collecting FEAR ITSELF #7.1: CAPTAIN AMERICA and WINTER SOLDIER #1-5.

Cover of the Week #20
Cover of the Week time!
Week 20 saw some fine artwork showcased on the front of our favourite papery literature including the likes of Winter Soldier #5 by Lee Bermejo (you can’t go wrong with a big monkey!), Michael Kormarck‘s beautiful painted cover for Hulk #7.1 and almost-winner Avengers vs X-Men #4 by Jim Cheung. However, there is one that was voted Cover of the Week #20…
…Fury Max #4 by Dave Johnson!
A stunning piece of work and something that would look good hung on anyone’s wall, let alone adorning a comic!
Congrats to Dave and Marvel, they get the paper crown this week!
