I'm about to read Chip @Zdarsky and @MChecC, but thought we'd share this video ol' Chipperoo made for us – AND YOU! – regarding their run! pic.twitter.com/4Oed6gS2RU

This first issue of #Daredevil is awesome. A perfect introduction to the character and where he is in the Marvel U today.

There’s a darkness and heart here, put in by @zdarsky and @MChecC, and this has all the makings of a classic run. #PreNCBD pic.twitter.com/170Fzm5T6a
I can’t stress this enough: this DAREDEVIL books is exactly how you introduce a new audience to a character. Textbook. Amazing. #PreNCBD

This is a really interesting story about a girl who is murdered in 1969, but comes back in 2019. It’s only minutes for her. Now she has to figure out what happened to her. pic.twitter.com/rj1CDuv6V2

Castellucci knows the exact language to use towards the women characters that’s so innocuous, and extremely damaging. It’s tough to read, and yet, this series should be read many times over. pic.twitter.com/ztrCf21uz6

FEMALE FURIES is going to spark a LOT of discussion. A chronicle of the Fourth World characters through the lens of systemic sexism. #preNCBD pic.twitter.com/u5Ack8uG3v

OBERON provides a fresh angle on characters from A Midsummer Night’s Dream. It can function as a sequel of sorts to that tale, or a neat twist on the “child saves a magical land” story. #preNCBD pic.twitter.com/jf1HbXDS01

I’m quite curious to see how the AGE OF X-MAN event will go. There are a few miniseries rolling out over the next month, not all of which you need to read(if you don’t want to). pic.twitter.com/HCY6T8E0K4

OBERON’s here to mess up some poor girls life, but the story feels fresh. I’m curious what will happen next. pic.twitter.com/HEyzFpqlo4

The newest RED SONJA by @Manruss and @ColakMirko is wonderful. Brutal in action and vicious in tongue, I’m excited to read more… and sword and sorcery is usually not my jam. #preNCBD pic.twitter.com/eGIyuKgE5y

Ever wanted to see a magical girl beat someone with a baseball bat?

Can’t get enough of the “models as drug mules” plot. So, so good. pic.twitter.com/LjHzTbVGml

Ugh, DIE is just too damn good. I’m all wrapped up in the characters, and it’s only issue 3. pic.twitter.com/mA4CA0OyT9

GI JOE SIERRA MUERTE is the classic team synthesized through decidedly indie sensibilities to great effect. Feels like a classic story, with surprising visuals. #preNCBD pic.twitter.com/v13SDCDRAT

Very excited to see how these sell for Marvel. They’re reprinting the first 11-12 issues of MOON GIRL and MS MARVEL in a smaller, digest format. pic.twitter.com/AZOZIJ7amw

MAKER COMICS are *such* a great idea! Will be looking into the garden one for myself. pic.twitter.com/HcYW1fIjR9
