STAFF PICKS :: IMAGE FIRSTS! BUY ‘EM ALL!! :: APRIL 30, 2014
Set aside 8.00 and pick up the $ 1.00 reprints of the first issues of these white hot series from Image Comics:IMAGE FIRSTS BLACK SCIENCE #01| $1.00 From the Research firm of Remender, Scalera and White— Science goes where it really shouldn’t and Earth is screwed
IMAGE FIRSTS DEADLY CLASS #01| $1.00 Rick Remender and Wesley Craig enroll you in the most deadly High School of all time.
IMAGE FIRSTS EAST OF WEST #01| $1.00 Jonathan Hickman and Nick Dragotta’s East of West where the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse descend upon the American West. Infernal Saddles!!
IMAGE FIRSTS LAZARUS #01| $1.00 Greg Rucka and Michael Lark cross-pollinate the sci-fi future of Mad Max with the cut-throat nepotism of Dallas and Dynasty. Sounds good and nasty.
IMAGE FIRSTS VELVET #01| $1.00 from Ed Brubaker and Steve Epting. Velvet does for the spy game what the Winter Soldier storyline did for Captain America.
IMAGE FIRSTS PRETTY DEADLY #01| $1.00. The pretty Kelly Sue DeConnick and the deadly Emma Rios team up to bring an epic that has been described as a hybrid of Sandman and Preacher. You had us at Kelly Sue and Emma.
IMAGE FIRSTS SEX CRIMINALS #01| $1.00 This is one of my favorite series being published right now; from the minds of Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky— yes it is as good as you’ve heard. You officially have no excuse to avoid the book everyone else is reading –that is unless you are under 18.
IMAGE FIRSTS MANIFEST DESTINY #01| $1.00 And my personal fave by Chris Dingiss and Matthew Roberts— think of it as Ken Burn’s presents Fables. It is magical.
Buy them all… this is a golden opportunity.
