Week of November 4

A very difficult week is brightened by a bunch of new comics. Unlike last week where the books were all of the independent variety, this week all medalists are from DC and Marvel.

Bronze Medalist

Absolute Superman #1

Rafa Sandoval & Ulises Arreola

The first of two DC books is the brand new Absolute Superman. The Absolute books have been good so far and this gives us an indication of the power and the capability of our new Kryptonian. Striding through the wheat fields of …Kansas? I think. Looks great.

Silver Medalist

Plastic Man No More #3

Cover art by Alex Lins & Marcelo Maiolo

The new Plastic Man series has won a medal for each issue, I believe. I love this one that makes me think of Doctor Strangelove with Plastic Man wrapped around the bomb. Of course, the bomb is more than just a bomb.

Gold Medalist

Kahhori: Reshaper of Worlds #1

Cover art by Afua Richardson

The Marvel debut of the original character that appeared in What If…? season two is here and the cover is beautiful. Kahhori looks as she did in What If, but the background is lovely as she moves through the woods.
