New Comic Book Day 21/06/2017 - Works of Monumental Distraction

Evening comics people! A lot of strange and wonderful things for you this week!
Topping the bill is the comic of Owen and my Arch-Nemesis, Shirtless Bear-Fighter. An orphan (presumably) betrayed by the bears that raised him grows to become more savage than the creatures he despises. When super-bears start to take over there is only one shirtless man who can punch them in the face and save the city!
DC continue their interesting crossovers this week, with Wonder Woman versus the Tasmanian Devil, and Lobo versus Roadrunner. How will Wonder Woman cope with the rampaging ID that is the Tasmanian Devil? Will he win her over with his bizarre charms? Lobo versus Roadrunner is an even more intriguing idea? What happens when an immovable object meets an unstoppable force? Looney Tunes.
Weapons of Mutant Destruction is the story of a group of scientists that just won't learn, or are conducting the most rigorous and painstaking study on the futility of eradicating mutants with mutant cyborg hybrids. Once again the brain trust that is Weapon-X are attempting to wipe out mutant kind having learned no lessons from the previous X number of times. But is the Hulk back already? Or have they concocted something new and Terrifying?
That's all for this week! See you Wednesday!
Tom and Owen
