Star Wars: Visions #1 serves as a compelling prequel to “The Duel”, thanks to the stellar work of storyboard artist Takashi Okazaki.

Punisher War Journal: Brother #1 seems to blend the bloodthirsty brutality of the Punisher with the structure of a Bourne movie

Miracleman #0 is a tribute to the power of storytelling as well as a celebration of the legendary hero’s 40 years in the “Modern Age”.

Savage Avengers #6 is another journey into chaos from Marvel’s most hardcore team, sending them from a world of dragons to one of robots.

Ant-Man #4 puts the cap on a well-crafted miniseries that explores the past, present, and distant future of Marvel’s astonishing Avenger.

A.X.E.: X-Men #1 puts Jean Grey through a mental wringer, as it explores the concept of whether it’s possible to achieve redemption.

Spider-Man #1 is an epic start by legendary creators, as both Dan Slott and Mark Bagley return to the Wall-Crawler once again.

Shang-Chi and the Ten Rings #3 is game-changing. Any previous thoughts of where the series may go have evaporated with the second half of the issue.

Thunderbolts #2 is much better than an already great first issue. The best elements have been expanded upon and have become even more brilliant.

Ant-Man #3 turns its focus on current Ant-Man Scott Lang, as Al Ewing and Tom Reilly’s astonishing anniversary series draws to a close.
