My Pull List for Week 44 of 2019

This week I add 29 comics and a graphic novel to my list and so I’ve got plenty to read as soon as the World Series is over.


 

New Weekly Releases

  • The Last God
    by Philip Kennedy Johnson, Richardo Ferderici, Dean White, and Jared Blando.
    Published by DC Comics, 2019.
    THE LAST GOD tells the story of two fellowships of heroes struggling with the same threat…30 years apart. One group will doom their world, the other must save it.  Thirty years ago, a band of heroes traveled beyond the borders of creation and killed the last living god, saving the realm of Cain Anuun from an apocalyptic army of the undead. The legendary companions became the rulers of their world and ushered in a new era of peace and prosperity. But it did not last.  Now the foul legions of the Last God march once more, laying waste to all of Cain Anuun and revealing that the aging fellowship may not be the great heroes they claim to be. With the world burning down around them, a new group of unlikely champions must band together and accomplish what no other has done: kill the Last God, once and for all. THE LAST GOD: BOOK ONE OF THE FELLSPYRE CHRONICLES is a high-octane, no-holds-barred dark fantasy epic from writer Phillip Kennedy Johnson (Last Sons of America, Warlords of Appalachia, AQUAMAN) and artist Riccardo Federici (DARK NIGHTS: METAL, AQUAMAN), featuring additional work from Kai Carpenter (BOOKS OF MAGIC), Dean White (ALL-STAR BATMAN, Uncanny X-Force) and Jared Blando (Dungeons & Dragons).
  • Roku #1
    by Cullen Bunn and Ramon Bachs.
    Published by Valiant Comics, 2019.
    How many lives must the lethal assassin Roku take in her first series?  Killing her way around the globe, the deadly weapon called Roku will face a challenge she can’t simply execute.  Being bad has never been so fun.
  • Excalibur #1
    by Tini Howard and Marcus To.
    Published by Marvel Comics, 2019.
    The Otherworld is rocked by war! It is a new era for mutantkind as a new Captain Britain holds the amulet, fighting for the Kingdom of Avalon with her Excalibur at her side – Rogue, Gambit, Rictor, Jubilee…and Apocalypse.
  • The Sandman Universe: Hellblazer #1
    by Si Spurrier and Marcio Takara.
    Published by Vertigo Comics, 2019.
    The second year of the Sandman Universe begins with the long-awaited arrival of one of DC’s most iconic characters…John Constantine, Hellblazer!  He’s cheated death and damnation more times than he can count, but never like this. Long ago, in the crucible of a magical war waged across countless futures, Constantine was murdered by an all-powerful adversary: a twisted version of Timothy Hunter, bloated with evil.  But over the past year strange forces have conspired to restart Tim Hunter’s tale, and somehow-amid sorcery, insanity and secret agendas-this older, wiser, wilier shade of Constantine has been dragged back with it. Unlike young Tim, John remembers every second of a life that went very, very wrong. Now he must ask himself why he, the last person in the world to deserve a second chance, has been given one. Is John Constantine here to put Tim Hunter on the right track and avert a terrible outcome? Or is it because he’s the only person in existence with the guts to do what REALLY must be done? After all, he’s a nasty piece of work, chief…ask anybody. This oversize one-shot sets the stage, and is the perfect jumping-on point, for a new era of Sandman Universe tales beginning in November…and is the official start of the strangest chapter yet in John Constantine’s long life!
  • Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: Long Night at Goloski Station #1
    ny Mike Mignola and Matt Smith.
    Published by Dark Horse Comics, 2019.
    A quiet night at a rundown Russian train station turns into an all-out demon battle for Hellboy when three sinister interlopers pass through.
  • The Plot #2
    by Michael Morcei, Tim Daniel, and Josh Hixson
    Published by Vault Comics, 2019
    Secrets fester in the Blaine family-and in their home. Chase uncovers a piece of history best left hidden, while Mackenzie explores the fraught past between her uncle and Reese.
