Back to normal this week, so those of you feeling lost and out of kilter this week can relax, this week has you covered.
As some of you are aware through social media, Valiant are kicking off their Cats in Cosplay covers this week with Faith, and it's brilliant. We're in the process of shrinking our variant orders at the moment, but we couldn't resist going a bit heavy on this. Valiant is also getting more and more interesting, so take a look.
Marvel are kicking off a few more number ones this week, fans of Champions may fancy picking up Nova, fans of Deadpool may be interested in Slapstick, and fans of Darth Vader should be very pleased to see Kieron Gillen picking back up where he left off with Doctor Aphra!
That's not Gillen's only new release this week, Uber Invasion is a new #1 from Avatar, it's a dark one, but if you think super powered Nazi's might be up your alley it's one to consider.
Animosity #1 is back in stock! Again!
DC continue their policy of just having fun with comics with a very funny depiction of the gates of Hell in Midnighter and Apollo #3, they aren't for everyone but it's worth checking out the cover for some amusement.
That's all for this week! Hope to see you in the store soon!
