In which Shawn looks at the New Releases and lets you know which books she is most excited about!

1) Sif #1

Written by Kelly Sue Deconnick with art by Ryan Stegman, Sif tells the story of how she is fitting in with the residents of Broxton, Oklahoma. I am really digging the art! This looks like a fun Asgardian story!

2) Captain America Who Won’t Wield the Shield?

There are some super talented people on this book. I was pretty surprised to flip through and see Jason Aaron, Matt Fraction, Brendan McCarthy, Joe Quinones and Forbush Man. It looks entertaining if not slightly silly.

3) Brave and the Bold #33

You mean to tell me that J. Michael Straczynski and Cliff Chiang did a Zatanna, Wonder Woman and Batgirl story? Sign me up!

4) MOME vol 18 Spring 2010

MOME is always full of super talented people and this issue is no exception. I love to flip through and see some new (to me at least), up-and-coming names in comics. I particularly like Chocolate Gun Cold Heat Story and Autumn. My only complaint is that there aren’t page numbers. It can make it hard to figure out what is what.

5) Spirit #1

I am a big Spirit fan so I am super excited about this relaunch. It looks darker and gritter than the last series (the black-and-white back-up in particular). Hopefully this series will stay true to the “spirit” of the Spirit and be a light-hearted, fun crime book!
