★ PICK OF THE WEEK ★
IRON MAN #9
KIERON GILLEN | DALE EAGLESHAM
MARVEL COMICS

“The Secret Origin Of Tony Stark”

Death’s Head and Iron Man team-up to hunt down a genocidal criminal. Not the problem. A shipful of dead badoon. Not the problem. What Tony finds in the depths of that ship: the problem. Big problem.

The lead into the biggest Tony Stark story of the year.

DETECTIVE COMICS #20
JOHN LAYMAN | JASON FABOK
DC COMICS

The superhuman transformation of Ignatius Ogilvy is just the tip of the iceberg when an extremely unexpected character comes to The Penguin’s aid! And in the backup story, Emperor Penguin makes a trip to Blackgate Prison he won’t soon forget!

SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN #9
DAN SLOTT | RYAN STEGMAN
MARVEL COMICS

It ends here! “Superior No More!”

The hottest comic in comics comes to a turning point that will get you angrier than you were after Spidey #700! The time has come to see who will live, who will die, and who will emerge as the one, true Superior Spider-Man!

SONIC THE HEDGEHOG #248
IAN FLYNN | JAMAL PEPPERS | JIM AMASH | JOHN WORKMAN | MATT HERMS

‘When Worlds Collide,’ Part 3 of 12.

It’s Sonic versus Mega Man – Round One! The fight that every fan of both the Blue Blur and Blue Bomber has been waiting for is here at last, and it looks like Sonic’s got the hometeam advantage! Can Mega Man cope with the Blue Blur in a land of loops? Meanwhile, Dr. Wily is concerned his old rival might cause problems, which sets Dr. Eggman’s sites on Dr. Light! Don’t miss a moment of this historic crossover event as the heroic fights and evil friendships rage on! Continues in this month’s Mega Man #25!
