4001 A.D. #1 (Valiant)
There is a great intro that catches you up on what’s going on so you aren’t lost reading, and the art matches the style of the story perfectly.

Cinema Purgatorio #1 (Avatar)
I had my doubts about this but all of the stories were actually really good reads. Worth your time and money.

Renato Jones: The One % #1 (Image)
There are some odd layout and pacing choices in this first issue, but overall I really liked this. I think it’s a series I will get into big time. Check it out.

Beasts of Burden: What the Cat Dragged In One-Shot (Dark Horse)
I can’t say this is something you can just pick up without reading what came before. I’m so glad to have this back but read the other stories first.

The Punisher #1 (Marvel)
Brutal, lovely, old school Punisher. Felt good to have this style back for now. Good reset for the character. I’m in.
