Revealing April’s ComicBoxer Picks!

**Click here to join COMICBOXER Today! As low as $17.99/month. ALL Comics, NO filler!**

THANK YOU for participating in April 2015’s MYSTERY BOX! It was another record breaking month for us, and we were pretty excited about the books in this month’s shipment. We also threw in a bonus book from Free Comic Book Day, which was on May 2nd. Exactly how did this month’s comics make the cut? Read below and find out!

rebels1Rebels #1 by Brian Wood & Andrea Mutti – Dark Horse Comics

Brian Wood takes us back to the year 1775 with Rebels, a look at the American Revolution through the eyes of Seth and Mercy Abbott. Wood is best known for his storytelling on books like DMZ, Northlanders, and The Massive. Expect his writing to draw parallels between the worlds of 1775 and 2015.

 

 

 

 

 

 

bloodshot-reborn1Bloodshot Reborn #1 by Jeff Lemire & Mico Suyan: Suyan Variant – Valiant Comics

This is the first time we’ve included a Valiant book in ComicBoxer, and we’ve included this one for good reason! Valiant is making huge headlines these days – their movie deal with Sony has paved the way for at least 5 films in the Valiant Universe, Bloodshot first among them. This comic is a great place to start for those unfamiliar with the character. Oh, and say hello to “Bloodsquirt” for us – a character drawn in the book by writer Jeff Lemire over Mico Suyan’s already fantastic art!

 

 

 

 

 

kaijumax-omalleyKaijumax #1 by Zander Cannon: Bryan Lee O’Malley Variant – Oni Press

Kaijumax is awesome. Don’t let the cute cover by Scott Pilgrim artist Bryan Lee O’Malley fool you – this is Orange is the New Black or Oz meets Pacific Rim. What happens when giant monsters get captured? They get sent to Kaijumax! But what if they were just trying to take care of their Kaiju family? Are some Kaiju just misunderstood? This variant has been selling for as much as $12 online!

 

 

 

 

 

ladymech-tablet1Lady Mechanika: Tablet of Destinies #1 by Joe Benitez & M.M. Chen – Benitez Productions

Lady Mechanika, Joe Benitez’ steampunk heroine, makes the jump from Aspen Comics to Joe’s own publishing company. This character has immense popularity, and we leaped at the chance to include the first issue of her new series in this month’s box.

 

 

 

 

 

Avengers_Vol_5_44_TextlessAvengers #44 by Jonathan Hickman & Stefano Caselli/Kev Walker – Marvel Comics

Secret Wars is upon us and entire universes are coming to an end. A climactic battle between Captain America and Iron Man end the current Marvel Universe as we know it. This super-sized 56 page finale is action-packed, and we’re calling it the last comic featuring both the Ultimate Universe and the 616 universe. It’s also the perfect lead-in to Secret Wars #1 coming in May.

Our third Marvel Star Wars book in as many months, and this time we’ve included the awesome Action Figure Variant, which is sold out and already commanding prices of up to $10 in the aftermarket!

Descender-01-6b1c3Descender #1 by Jeff Lemire & Dustin Nguyen – Image Comics

Amazing writing from Jeff Lemire and beautiful water-colored panels from Dustin Nguyen make this book a true work of art! If the first issue is any indication, this is a series that we will be rushing to read each month it’s released. Sony has already optioned the movie rights to this story, which has pushed this issue past the $10 mark online!

 

 

 

 

 

spider-woman5Spider-Woman #5 by Dennis Hopeless & Javier Rodriguez – Marvel Comics

This landmark issue of Spider-Woman gives Jessica Drew an all-new hip and updated costume, which was something Marvel needed to do after the controversy of the variant cover from issue #1. The new outfit is already a hit with readers – this issue is sold out and headed for reprints!

 

 

 

 

 

4376741-chrononauts-01-cvr-Chrononauts #1 by Mark Millar & Sean Murphy – Image Comics

Who doesn’t love a good time travel story, especially when written by one of comics’ most prolific creators Mark Millar! Joined by superstar artist Sean Murphy, this tells the story of the first trip through time, and like the first landing on the moon, this trip will be televised! The announcement of a movie deal for this book with Universal, plus an “optical illusion” on the cover, has pushed this sold-out Sean Murphy cover as high as – wait for it – $30! WOW!

 

 

 

 

 

hellbreak1Hellbreak #1 by Cullen Bunn & Brian Churilla – Oni Press

Cullen Bunn, writer for books such as Magneto, Deadpool Kills, and Sixth Gun takes us to Hell and back in this offering from Oni Press. Project Keberos has been developed to break into hell, rescue lost souls, and then break back out. The book promises “thousands of hells” and we can’t wait to see how Brian Churilla visualizes that.

 

 

 

 

 

convergence-0jpg-d12dccConvergence #0 by Dan Jurgens & Ethan Van Sciver – DC Comics

The end of “The New 52” all begins here. Dan Jurgens gives us this Superman-centric introduction to the event where DC’s universes will collide, giving us a look back at the heroes and villains of DC’s past, present, and future. Convergence will run through the months of April and May before the publisher begins a mini-relaunch in June!

darthvader1Darth Vader #1 by Kieron Gillen & Salvador Larrocca – Marvel Comics
With Disney and Marvel behind the reigns of the Star Wars comic universe, you didn’t think they were going to stop with just the one main, ongoing title did you? Nope! And we’re thankful they didn’t because we LOVE this new ongoing Darth Vader series set directly after the Death Star’s destruction in Episode IV – a New Hope.

 

 

 

 

 

 

nameless1Nameless #1 by Grant Morrison & Chris Burnham – Image Comics

This is the first issue in a six issue miniseries by Morrisson & Burnham, and the first time they’ve collaborated on a book since their run on Batman and Robin. This book deals with the occult, the apocalypse, and the depravity of humankind. Sounds like a book that is a perfect fit for the writing of Grant Morrison! This book is also sold out of its 1st printing.

 

 

 

 

 

Spider-Gwen-1-Cover-Robbi-Rodriguez-720x1112Spider-Gwen #1 by Jason Latour & Robbi Rodriguez – Marvel Comics

Spider-Gwen is taking the world by storm! Her first appearance in Edge of Spider-Verse #2 already fetches over $100 a copy online. Now you’re in on the ground floor of her brand new ongoing series! The sky is the limit for this alternate universe Gwen Stacy. We’re sure that more comic appearances, tv, and perhaps even movies are in her future!

 

 

 

 

 

lady-m-1bLady Mechanika #4 by Joe Benitez & Peter Steigerwald  – Aspen Comics

December 2011 was the last time we saw the super popular steampunk heroine Lady Mechanika in print, and Joe Benitez finally delivers with this much-anticipated 4th issue. We can’t wait for the launch of his new Lady Mechanika series in April 2015, and this book serves as the perfect introduction.

 

 

 

 

 

BOOM_Cluster_001_A_MainCluster #1 by Ed Brisson & Damien Couceiro – Boom! Studios

Ed Brisson (Sheltered, Sons of Anarchy) continues to be one of the best new writers in comics, and he delivers here with Cluster #1 a sci-fi tale about a future where Earth relies on its convicts to form armies to better defend the planet from attacking alien life forms. This book is already sold out of its 1st printing.

 

 

 

 

 

asm-14-notoAmazing Spider-Man #14 by Dan Slott & Olivier Coipel: Phil Noto Variant – Image Comics

It’s the conclusion of the Spider-Verse story! What better way to enjoy the ending to this major Spider-Man centric event than by flipping through the pages contained behind this beautiful Phil Noto variant cover which depicts a Polaroid-style portrait of Peter Parker’s first girlfriend Gwen Stacy!

starwars-marvel1Star Wars #1 by Jason Aaron & John Cassaday – Marvel Comics
Disney’s deal for the Star Wars franchise in 2012 brought the worlds most popular space adventure under the same umbrella as Disney’s other hot property – Marvel Comics.

Harley_Quinn_Vol_2_14_Textless_Flash_VariantHarley Quinn #14 by Jimmy Palmiotti, Amanda Conner, Bruce Timm – DC Comics

No two covers are alike!

 

 

 

 

 

Spider-Verse_Team-Up_Vol_1_3_TextlessSpider-Verse Team Up #3 by Various & Jamal Campbell: SIGNED – Marvel Comics

Spider-Verse has been capturing the hearts and minds of Spider-Fans since the event started a few months back. So many alternate universe Spideys have been introduced and this is a book that teams a bunch of them up!

rumble_01rgbRumble #1 by John Arcudi & James Harren – Image Comics

Amazing visuals from James Harren and Dave Stewart, along with action-packed writing from John Arcudi, makes Rumble #1 an adrenaline-fueled book. Rathraq the Scarecrow Warrior God shows up and starts wreaking havoc at a dive bar. This has the makings of a great action/adventure story.

 

 

squarriors1Squarriors #1 by Ash Maczko and Ashley Witter – Devil’s Due Entertainment

If the cover to this book doesn’t draw you in, then I don’t know what will! A story about warring animals in a post-human world, this first issue of a 4 issue series delivers impact, action, and brutality, all beautifully depicted by the very talented story artist Ashley Witter.

November 2014’s Mystery Box – a look inside!

**Click here to join COMICBOXER Today! As low as $17.99/month!**

THANK YOU for participating in November 2014’s MYSTERY BOX! We’re really excited about the picks we made this month, and we hope you will be too! How did this month’s comics make the cut? Read below and find out!

BM_Cv36_LEGOvar_Comp-720x1107Batman #36 by Scott Snyder & Greg Capullo: LEGO Joker Variant – DC Comics
Everyone’s favorite super villain is back in Snyder and Capullo’s “Endgame” storyline, and things appear to be getting more dark and twisted than ever! The fact that this variant has a LEGO version of the clown prince of crime gracing the cover made it a shoe-in for this month’s box!

 

 

 

All-New_Captain_America_Vol_1_1_Textless All New Captain America #1 by Rick Remender & Stuart Immonen – Marvel Comics

A bold, new direction for Captain America! This issue, featuring former Falcon Sam Wilson in his new role as Captain America is groundbreaking and will be looked back upon as an important moment in the history of Marvel Comics.

 

 

Superior_Iron_Man_1_Tom_Fowler_RRG_VariantSuperior Iron Man #1 by Tom Taylor and Yildiray Cinar “Groot in a Bottle” variant – Marvel Comics 

Tony Stark has been bitten by the Axis bug, and Iron Man is feeling a lot more like a jerk than he usually is. This special “Rocket and Groot” variant cover illustrated by Tom Fowler pays tribute to the famous Iron Man “Demon in a Bottle” cover.

 

 

 

4212079-01The Kitchen #1 – by Ollie Masters and Ming Doyle – Vertigo Comics

It’s the 1970s, in Hell’s Kitchen, New York City. Jimmy Brennan and his fellow mobsters have gone to prison and there’s nobody left to continue on with the business, save for the mob wives! This is a classic gangster story told from a completely different point of view. An added bonus is the great cover by Becky Cloonan.

 

 

 

humans_01The Humans #1 by Keenan Marshall Keller, & Tom Neely – Image Comics

If Sons of Anarchy and Planet of the Apes got married, this would be their offspring. The Humans is balls out exploitation on the printed page. Nothing is off limits in this book. It’s been generating a decent amount of buzz on the comic con circuit over the last year, and Image Comics has high hopes for the book.

 

 

 

odyc1ODY-C #1 by Matt Fraction & Christian Ward – Image Comics

One of the greatest stories ever told, Homer’s The Odyssey, is retold here with a few changes. First, instead of the world of Ancient Greece the story takes place in a futuristic, sci-fi setting. Second, all the male roles such as Odysseus are gender-swapped into female characters. Also – there’s an 8-page fold out!

 

 

Zero12-Cover-ec511BONUS BOOK! Zero #12 by Ales Kot & Adam Gorham SIGNED EDITION – Image Comics

Zero is a great book by Ales Kot that is in development to be a TV show at some point in the future. Each issue, Ales invites a different artist to draw the book.

Check out October 2014’s Mystery Box picks!

**Click here to join COMICBOXER Today! As low as $16.99/month!**

THANK YOU for participating in October 2014’s MYSTERY BOX! A whopping SEVEN comics were included in this month’s box. We’re really excited about the picks we made this month, and we hope you will be too! How did this month’s comics make the cut? Read below and find out!

wytches1Wytches #1 by Scott Snyder & Jock – Image Comics
This probably has one of the most chilling and jarring first few pages of any comic released in recent memory. A movie announcement based on the book has driven prices of this issue as high as $10 already! Look for the series to heat up even more after the release of subsequent issues.

 

 

 

 Sabrina #1 by Roberto Aguirre Sacasa & Robert Hack – Archie Comics

Continuing the trend of dark and twisted horror-themed comics after the success of Afterlife With Archie, Sabrina is based in the 1960s. The first issue gives us the back-story of how Sabrina ended up living with her aunts and her cat Salem. This is the Stadium Comics exclusive cover by Francesco Francavilla and normally sells for $9.99 in-store.

 

 

Thor #1 by Jason Aaron & Russell Dauterman – Marvel Comics 

It’s an all-new Female THOR! A book that has been met with much admiration and also controversy, Thor #1 has been a huge sales success. The Thor we knew has become unworthy, and there is a new person set to take his place. Who is it?

 

 

 

Gotham Academy #1 – by Becky Cloonan, Brendan Fletcher, & Karl Kerschl DC Comics

Teen Drama comes to Gotham! Meet Olive Silverlock and Maps Mizoguchi – two new characters studying at Gotham Academy. Cloonan and Fletcher add some youthful fun to the Bat Family books, and Karl Kerschl tops it off with a bright and heavily stylized look!

 

 

 

Batgirl #35 by Brendan Fletcher, Cameron Stewart, & Babs Tarr – DC Comics

Hipster Batgirl? Sure, why not! Barbara Gordon moves to Burnside, starts acting her age a little more, and decides to don a more practical costume. The book has been wildly popular – so popular in fact that DC is looking to do more re-inventions of characters similar to the re-invention of Barbara Gordon here.

 

 

 

Rasputin #1 by Alex Grecian & Riley Rossmo – Image Comics

The legendary real-life mystic and “mad monk” who consulted Russia’s royal family is given the comic book treatment here with a few embellishments. The first issue is beautifully drawn by Rossmo (no surprise there) and is light on dialogue, but the story is told in the imagery. Issue #1 is sold out, and we can’t wait to see what they do in issue #2!

 

 

Men of Wrath #1 by Jason Aaron & Ron Garney – Marvel Comics

A tale of bad men, with no punches pulled, portrayed brutally and honestly by Aaron and Garney. Ira Rath is a Hitman with an interesting family history. This is part 1 of a 5 issue miniseries produced by Marvel Comics under their Icon imprint, and is Jason Aaron’s second book in this mystery box!

August 2014’s Mystery Box Contents Revealed!

THANK YOU to all who participated in August 2014’s MYSTERY BOX! You all should have received your comics by now (unless you are one of our international customers). We’re really excited about the picks we made this month, and we hope you will be too! As a bonus for participating in this month’s program, you will have received a special “Guardians of the Galaxy” foil sticker!

So what makes a great ComicBoxer comic? See our reasons for selecting each issue below!

comics-the-multiversity-1Multiversity #1 by Grant Morrison & Ivan Reis – DC Comics
Grant Morrison here is doing what he does best here – exploring DC’s expansive multiverse and bringing focus back to the 52 different Earths that exist in DC lore. This is the first of a series of one shots that will be released over the next several months. Are we headed for another crisis?

 

 

 

fadeout1The Fade Out #1 by Ed Brubaker & Sean Phillips – Image Comics
The masters of noir storytelling are back in this captivating new book, which takes a look at scandal, mystery, and intrigue during 1940s Hollywood. The team behind “Fatale” are set to knock one out of the park again with this book. This is the first book from the Brubaker and Phillips since signing a 5-year deal with Image. This is a sure bet to be an issue collectors will covet.

 

 

harley-selfieHarley Quinn #9 by Amanda Conner & Jimmy Palmiotti “Selfie Variant” – DC Comics
For the month of August, DC put out 22 special “Selfie” variants featuring characters on the cover taking pictures of themselves. We’ve included DC’s current queen of comics Harley Quinn here as covers featuring her are always in demand.

 

 

 

POP-1-CVRPOP #1 by Curt Pires & Jason Copland – Dark Horse Comics
This book supposes that the pop superstars that we idolize are merely products; creations of the world’s richest individuals. These idols have bosses, and those bosses don’t like it when work isn’t performed to their specifications, and they definitely don’t like it when one of their products escape! Artist Jason Copland and writer Curt Pires have both been named “Creators to Watch” in 2013 & 2014. BONUS: If you’ve ever wanted to see a certain Canadian music superstar get what’s coming to him, this is the book for you. No, we’re not talking about Burton Cummings.

 

wayward-1-brjpg-6e4d60_1280wWayward #1 by Jim Zub & Steve Cummings – Image Comics
This book is being heralded as “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” for the new generation, and that’s not far off the mark. Written by Jim Zub, known for his work on Samurai Jack and Skullkickers teams with artist Steve Cummings to bring us the tale of Rori, a half-Japanese girl who just moved to Tokyo and may possess some supernatural evil-fighting powers! Lovers of teen paranormal drama and Japanese culture unite! This is the book for you.

 

 

GuardiansOfTheGalaxy_1_CoverGuardians of the Galaxy #1 (2013) by Brian Michael Bendis & Steve McNiven – Marvel Comics
Originally released in March 2013 this issue brought new life and energy to the Guardians of the Galaxy comic franchise in preparation for the movie which was released this summer. The team you fell in love with at the theater is all here: Star-Lord, Groot, Rocket, Drax, and Gamora along with a special guest – Iron Man! This book was a quick sell out when it was launched and we are happy to include it in this month’s mystery box as a special thank you to our fellow ComicBoxers!
