Ether #1 (Dark Horse)
Really awesome art, quirky and compelling first issue. Don’t pass on this.
Rating: BUY IT
Harbinger: Renegades #1 (Valiant)
For the die-hard Valiant fan, this will be a nice addition to the story line. For the casual fan, this will be harder to get into.
Rating: SKIM IT
Slam! #1 (Boom)
Super solid art! Not a story that captured me but I’m not the audience for it. I think this has a ton of potential and will really resonate people. Worth looking at and seeing if it’s for you.

Yakuza Demon Killers #1 (IDW)
Really liked the art in this first issue. I don’t know if the story captured me but I want to read what comes next.
Rating: SKIM IT
Grand Passion #1 (Dynamite)
I tried to get into this but the art and the clunky story just didn’t do anything for me.
Rating: LEAVE IT
