Papers piling up.  Comics piling up.

These are not your grandfather’s piles.

Thank God.

• PastAways #2 (Dark Horse)
• Astro City #22 (DC/Vertigo)
• The Multiversity #2 (DC): I&N Demand The Multiversity and Convergence existing in the same time, in the same space, doing pretty much the same thing–it’s no surrpise, really: yeah, this is DC’s WTF campaign rebranded and repackaged.  It’s an in-house secret war, with the money–clearly–on the upstart Convergence.  Morrison’s The Multiversity, however, reflects an immutable truth: good writing is good writing–and bad writing needs a balls-out marketing campaign.

• Superman #40 (DC)
• G.I. Joe #8 (IDW)
• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #45 (IDW): I&N Demand TMNT was on my chopping block last month, and then they had to go and chop…  Hey: if you read #44, you know what I’m talking about.  If you didn’t, well, then, chop, chop!  Get on that!

• Alex + Ada #14 (Image)
• They’re Not Like Us #5 (Image)
• Daredevil #15 (Marvel)
• Moon Knight #14 (Marvel)
• Silver Surfer #11 (Marvel): I&N Demand Silver Surfer has been otherworldly.

• Brides of Helheim #5 (Oni)
• Burning Fields #4 (BOOM!)
• Godkiller: Walk Among Us #4 (Black Mask)
• Hit 1957 #2 (BOOM!)
• Mayday #1 (Black Mask)
• Quantum and Woody Must Die #4 (Valiant)
• The Twilight Zone: Shadow & Substance #4 (Dynamite)
• War Stories #8 (Avatar)

Avery’s Pick of the Week

What are you looking forward to this week?

Turning all sorts of pages,
