New Comics Day 5/9/12

In addition to my pull list my comic's shop held the Archaia Free Comic Book Day book for me. Its a slim little hardcover with a new Mouse Guard story as well as samples from their other titles...

The Tick returns with the Tick/Invincible where the Image hero gets summoned to the far less serious super-hero universe by a villain who's a mash-up of Marvin the Martian and the Martian Manhunter. Its even got a two-page spread parodying Kirkman's spray-the-walls violence...

Plus this week also has a regular issue of Invincible with more fall-out from Mark's recovery and escape from Viltrumite custody...

Fatale finishes up its first arc with an unexpected face-turn from one of the supposed bad guys...

Hopefully this isn't the actual last issue for iZombie since its more than a bit of a cliff-hanger...

Courtney Crumrin looks at some of the incidents in the title character's previous stories from the perspective of the normal townsfolk. Just a reminder that the effects of spells doesn't stop when Courtney stopped paying attention to them...

And finally a new Resurrection Man with a cross-over with the new Suicide Squad. I still don't like that they felt the need to give the Wall such a total physical make-over but at least her manipulative, twisty and abrasive personality is still the same...
