What To Read.... What To Read....?

Great Over-looked Titles at Your Comic Book Store

So I was sitting here contemplating what Comic book I should review this week; there are so many new titles, where to start? This got me to wandering around the store looking at all of the great stories available, both new and old. Looking them over again, I found many interesting things in titles that I previously overlooked; some, after seeing them, I remembered, “Oh Yeah! I wanted to check that out.” That's why, instead of writing a review today, I am writing about some featured comic books that you’re not reading, but probably should be. 

Some DC titles include: Adventures of Superman, Futures End and Katana.
Adventures of Superman showcases new Creators each month with original tales of the Man of Steel.
Futures End, DC's game-changing weekly comic, jumps into the future of the DC Universe. Find out what changes for our Heroes and Villains five years time will bring about?
Last, and of course not least, Katana brings us a new kind of hero, a Japanese samurai, whose sword steals the essence of those it slays and stores them inside. Pretty Cool so far, right!

Marvel has some great overlooked titles: Daredevil and Savage Wolverine, to name just two.
Daredevil comes at you hot and heavy with this brand new re-launch. Writer Mark Waid had this to say, "We’re about to change literally every aspect of Matt Murdock’s life. Every aspect." Cool!
Savage Wolverine tells stories of Logan’s past with each new arc by a different creative team. What can I say but, “Expect lots of brawls and babes, and maybe even a few brachiosaurs.”

Dynamite has been really pounding out the hits, as well.
Their most overlooked book is Chaos.  This is an essential must have, Really One Sweet comic! Dynamite has revamped the Chaos Universe and has brought together Evil Ernie, Chastity and Purgatory for the first time in years; these three are headed on a collision path with each other and they meet up, the sparks will fly!!! This book is set to have spin-offs of its major characters, Chastity being the first (and is selling fast) followed soon by Purgatory and Evil Ernie. I can’t say enough about this title, if you’re not reading it, you really should be!

Image, Dark Horse, Avatar Press and a few others are next. But, because this post is starting to get a little long, I’m just going to list the titles of some really great over-looked comics for these last few publishers for now, and promise to get more in depth with them in a future post.

Here We Go:

Image Comics: Death Vigil; Manifest Destiny; East of West; Savage Dragon; Dream Police

Dark Horse: Dark Horse Presents; Eerie; Ghost; Creepy

Avatar Press: God is Dead; Hero Worship; Crossed

Boom Studios: Empty Man; Evil Empire; KaBoom! Comics (Tons of Fun, Kid Friendly Titles!)

Valiant Comics: Archer & Armstrong; Bloodshot; Harbinger; X-O Manowar

These are just a few of the many titles you’ll at White Dragon Comics, just take a moment and browse through your favorite comic book store and see what you might be missing!
