[Editor’s note:
Unfortunately, there wasn’t as much response on the Jinxworld

shocking Union story to date!

Ron Marz wraps up this excellent miniseries, whetting your appetite for
more. Are you
listening Dark Horse??

Sim and Gerhard tease us with another
glimpse into the epic storyline as we head into the
homestretch. See the beginning of the end that everyone
will be talking about for years to come..
Young Justice
- Peter David and Todd Nauck juggle an ensemble cast, all while providing
some hillarious laughs and excellent art! Be on the lookout for Teen Lobo!
Zero Girl -
Sam Keith makes his triumphant return to
comics with another personal and bizarre story. Catch it
now!
Ultimate Spiderman - The ultimate team of Bendis and Bagley continue to amaze and
mesmerize. The pivotal moment in Peter's life delivered with such
intensity and heartfelt
storytelling that the original pales in comparision. This is the comic you
should be handing out/reading to your kids.
