New Books for 7/2/08

This week looks pretty solid, not as amazing as last weeks though. That week set the bar pretty high (more about that tomorrow, I promise), but this week certainly has its winners. Above all I am pretty excited to read Jonah Hex #33, which features Jonah Hex in Canada, and you know what that means: Darwyn Cooke is doing the art work. Also in this week is the continuation of Batman R.I.P. in Batman #678 and the first issues of Vertigo's Madame Xanadu, DC's Jokers Asylum and Marvels Patsy Walker Hellcat.

In the trade department keep your eyes open for Superman: Last Son and House of M: Avengers. I read House of M: Avengers as it was released and really liked it. Easily my favorite spin-off from the event. Superman: Last Son was something I always wanted to read. Its of course by Geoff Johns along with Richard Donner, but it also has great art by Andy Kubert, but it took forever to come out, and I just forgot about it.

Enjoy the week everyone!

*Edit: Holy crap, I didn't even see Walking Dead #50. A must read.
