Buzz-worthy books of the week
Black Panther #1
No surprise here. Panther, the next big addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe come Captain America: Civil War (sorry Spidey), is getting a solo book for the first time in a while. This time he is being spear-headed by a writer who is an experienced journo who focused on social and political themes.
The new 52 are getting their own Bloodlines arc, an event from the '90s about an infestation of parasitic aliens the imparted superpowers on their victims.
I have no idea what this is, but I am intrigued by the solicitation saying it was returning in color and as a series. I haven't heard of it, but it sounds like it is a cult classic that I should have.
Old man Logan vs Old man Rogers
An American League of Extraordinary Gentlemen that sees Teddy Roosevelt assemble a team of would-be American legends before they became legends.
Spinning off of the Spidey-verse, Spider-Woman, Silk, and Spider-Gwen team up to take on a nefarious spy organization from Gwen's home universe.
I'll be honest. I'm probably not going to read this. The Star Wars extended universe is vast and dense, and could easily take over all my free time. But Poe Dameron was a cool character for what little screen time he had. I figured someone might be interesting.
