Comic Book Wednesday: October 17th Picks

Okay, who has the new Shuri series on their list? I love that superhero TV shows and movies have piqued non-comic book fans interest in characters which at times resulted in some of those characters getting their own comic series or miniseries.

Other than that, here is my list:


DC Comics

Aquaman #41

Book: Aquaman #41

Description:

From the pages of JUSTICE LEAGUE, the road to 'Drowned Earth' starts here! Aquaman is missing-and the world has gone to hell! With Arthur imprisoned by Black Manta, Queen Mera is left to deal with the arrival of an alien armada aiming to punish the Earth for the sins of Atlantis. As the cosmic tides begin to rise, Mera finds herself in a fight for her very life when the flood unleashes new horrors of the deep!





Nightwing #51 (Porter Variant)

Book: Nightwing #51

Description:

And while Nightwing struggles to uncover the truth behind the 'fear germ' that is killing people in their sleep, he must also try to overcome his own sudden struggles with heights and vertigo. He has lost his primary skill set as a hero and will have to focus on his brilliance as a detective instead. And a distracting love triangle certainly isn't helping him focus...This new storyline spins out of events in BATMAN #55. Don't miss the start of a new direction in Nightwing's crimefighting career!






Scooby Doo Where Are You #95

Book: Scooby-Doo! Where Are You? #95

Description:

Sunday! Sunday! SUNDAY! And Scooby and the gang are spectators at the local monster truck mash-up! But when the Diesel Dragon invades the track driven by the barbaric Black Knightmare, can anyone stop them? A certain Machine is here to solve that Mystery!






Dynamite Entertainment

Xena #9 (Cover A - Cifuentes)

Book: Xena: Warrior Princess #9

Description:

There can be only one Xena... but you wouldn't think so if you were to happen upon the festival in Dyme. Gabrielle and Xena mingle among admirers, but some 'fans' can take things a little too seriously...






IDW Publishing

Ghostbusters Crossing Over #7 (Cover A - Schoening)

Book: Ghostbusters Crossing Over #7

Description:

Several teams of Ghostbusters from across the multiverse have just about pulled off a very difficult task-tracking down and recapturing all the ghosts that had escaped from the containment unit. Crisis averted, right? They wish. In this issue, the Ghostbusters of many worlds come face-to-face with the goddess of chaos herself. TIAMAT HAS RETURNED!






Marvel Comics

Shuri #1

Book: Shuri #1

Description:

FOLLOWING IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE BLACK PANTHER! The world fell in love with her in the movie. Now, the Black Panther's techno-genius sister launches her own adventures - written by best-selling Afrofuturist author Nnedi Okorafor and drawn by Eisner-nominated artist Leonardo Romero! The Black Panther has disappeared, lost on a mission in space. And in his absence, everyone's looking at the next in line for the throne. But Shuri is happiest in a lab, surrounded by gadgets of her own creation. She'd rather be testing gauntlets than throwing them. But a nation without a leader is a vulnerable one - and Shuri may have to choose between Wakanda's welfare and her own.






Thor #6

Book: Thor #6

Description:

ALL-FATHER THOR FACES HIS DOOM!

If you thought Old Man Phoenix was crazy, then wait'll you see what we've done to Marvel's greatest villain. It's the end of the universe - and the return of Doctor Doom. A Doom more powerful than anything that has ever lived. Get ready for the greatest battle the far future has ever seen, as Old King Thor and the Phoenix Wolverine stand together at the end of time against an army of monsters and the final Doom.
