There's quite a few new comics in WHSmith and all good Newsagents as they say. Panini continue their relaunch of their Marvel editions with the latest issue of The Amazing Spider-Man which continues the Hunted story line with parts five, six and seven from the US editions of Spidey's comic #19 & #20.
This adventure is obviously going to be of some length as it continues into at least the next issue and probably beyond. I'm quite enjoying a return to Peter Parker's world and am happy to recommend this title.
Also out this week is the latest issue of Judge Dredd Megazine which comes poly-bagged with another section of the 2000AD Encyclopedia.The Meg contains all the normal features including a new story for The Returners. Devlin Waugh's amusing but very "adult" tale continues.
There is a very well researched feature on the history of Valiant one of my favourite British comics of all-time. Rebellion are reprinting some of the Valiant's content in their Treasury of British Comics range with Volume One of The Steel Claw and hopefully they will get around to doing Kelly's Eye and The House of Dolman in the not too distant future.
Also available when you do the weekly shop is the latest 2000AD prog which brings Thistlebone, the current Dredd story-line and the rather entertaining Intestinauts all come to an end and there is a short Terror Tales: Dry Spell which frankly I thought was just a bit of space filler. Only Feral & Foe will continue into the next but one issue.
Next week 2000AD will be an oversized "Regened" issue for "younger readers.
Also on the shelves are new Commando pocket library books, X-Men #2 (see review below this post) and a variety of Panini's Marvel Specials. I had hoped to pick up the new Shift! and The Dandy Summer Special but these were not available in my local Shop.
Happy Reading.
