New Comics For August 16, 2006

Buenas tardes, mis amigos. It is that time of the week where the Revolution gives a preview of what titles we have up for review this week. Tomorrow is going to bring a nice amount of comics to the Bunker. Overall, it is a bit of a weak collection of titles, but I’m sure we will be treated to a few gems. Let’s roll the list of incoming comic books.

DC COMICS

52 WEEK #15
CHECKMATE #5
NIGHTWING #123
ROBIN #153
SHADOWPACT #4

MARVEL COMICS

GHOST RIDER #2
IRON MAN #11
ULTIMATE FANTASTIC FOUR #32

Which DC title is the Revolution most looking forward to? That is easy. 52 #15. This title is pretty much a guaranteed solid read each and every week. Robin #153 should be a fun issue. I’m interested to see Robin and Boomerang in action together. Which DC title is the Revolution least looking forward to reading? That is also easy. Nightwing #123. I have already beaten this title to death. We know that the Revolution is just hanging on waiting, and hoping, that Marv Wolfman can resurrect this title.

The Marvel title that the Revolution is most looking forward to reading would be Iron Man #11. Undeterred by what are obvious attempts by Marvel to assassinate Tony Stark’s character over in Civil War, the Knaufs are cranking out a well written and interesting story. The Knaufs write one of the best versions of Tony Stark. Which Marvel title is the Revolution least looking forward to? Probably Ghost Rider #2. I love Ghost Rider, but the thought of having to slog my way through a Daniel Way story isn’t very appealing. I’m sure we’ll get at least one “shocking” scene.
