In this hebdomad ’s comics , Joss Whedon comes back to Buffy , there ’s a new tailspin on Aliens Vs . Predator , and Sulu get back in the police chief ’s chair . But most of all , there ’s a new chance to check out a comics classic .
Most of the really interesting comics this hebdomad are media tie - Immigration and Naturalization Service . Dark Horse has Buffy Season Eight # 31 , a “ one shot ” written by Godhead Joss Whedon , which bridges the gap between Jane Espenson ’s Tibetan storyline and Brad Meltzer ’s forthcoming “ all will be revealed ” run .
Meanwhile , Aliens Vs . Predator : Three World War # 1 introduces a new spin on the mash - up : This time , two rival Predator clans are at war , and one of those kinship group has found a way to control and “ weaponize ” Aliens . Also , there are two Star Wars trades : an passenger vehicle of Shadows Of The Empire , and Knights Of The Old Republic Vol . 8 .
IDW has another Star Trek tie - in comedian , Captain ’s logarithm : Sulu # 1 . Sulu , in bid of his own ship , runs up against the Tholians . From the creative squad behind Spock : reflection .
Boom ! studio apartment continues its Incredibles and Farscape series , but the main new title launching this week is an ongoing Muppet Show comedian , with the Muppet gang decide “ to take their show on the route . ” But will there be pigs in blank ? Dynamite also has Army Of Darkness Volume 9 : Hellbillies and Deadnecks . With a title like that , how can you reason ?
Also , Hermes offers bulk three of Buck Rogers In The twenty-fifth Century : The Complete Newspaper Dailies .
On the non - licensed character front , Marvel has a trio of Spider - Man collection — the Black Cat comes back in the WYSIWYG - titled Return Of Black Cat . Election Day caps a long - run storyline , break the closed book of the Spider - Tracer killer and the individuality of Menace , plus who gets to be mayor of New York — and it includes the bandwagon - jumping story of the day Spidey touch Barack Obama . Also , Ultimate Spider - Man # 22 promises “ The Ultimate End ” as Magneto issues an ultimatum . There ’s also the follow - up to the “ Messiah War ” storyline in the Cable Vol . 3 : Stranded premier hardcover , and a new hardback of The Runaways ’ New York storyline , turn tail To New York .
It ’s a jolly quiet week for DC , with a smattering of Blackest Night railroad tie - ins : Secret Six , Titans and Power Of Shazam . Fans of the Batman : The Brave And The Bold TV series can pick up a trade paperback of all - ages comics stories tying in with the show … including one where at-bat faces the Time Lord . ( Really ? ) There ’s also a Doc Savage craft paperback , reissue a 1987 miniseries featuring former study by Adam and Andy Kubert .
Our pick of the week , though , is believably Human Target : Chance coming together , a new craft softback clock to cooccur with the launching of the new Human Target TV series . And really , the release of this collection is belike the only sound matter about that show , based on the pilot burner . Fortunately , you may get Peter Milligan and Edvin Biukovic ’s epic original miniseries , along with the Final Cut standalone 96 - page special that I bear right smart too much money for in hardback , in one volume for just $ 15 . This is the man of a million face done Vertigo style , with all the question about identity and selfhood that the conception institute up . I ’m almost hoping the terrible Fox TV serial publication remain on the air long enough for us to get garish reprints of the respite of Milligan ’s run on the character .
As always , you could find a list of all the books being released this weekhere , and then look for your local comic book storehere .
