This week Vargas and Mike are crackin' into previews and giving you the highlights of what stood out to us. In other news — we warn you to avoid some spoilers, Batman and Deadpool are meeting, the Superman cast is going on a world tour, A new Toxic Crusaders comic, Local Comic Shop Day changes, & Bad Idea party at San Diego Comicon. Apart from the books in the title, we're talking about Dark Honor on the Image imprint SYZYGY, and Goddamn Tragedy - a one-shot by Chris Condon out on Oni Comics. Be nice, sign everyones yearbooks, have a great Summer (HAGS), and read lots of comics.

This week we try to think of two celebrities who have appeared as 3 different high profile comic book characters in movies while discussing the Spider-man Nior trailer. Then... You know its all about comics baby. Like the title suggests, we dig into Dan Slotts Superman, Zander Cannons Sleep, The Killer: Affairs of the State II, Whatever Happened to the Crimson Justice?, and Godzilla: Here There be Aliens. BONUS: Vargas missed last week so he catches us up on his take on Exquisite Corpses.

HEY! We've got a lot to cover this week. The Big 2 treated us with a duo of trailers. DC's mega long Superman trailer, and Marvels teaser/trailer for the Riri Williams Iron Heart show. They are both good, but we'll tell you WHY they're good to US!!! In comics we'll discuss the new Exquisite Corpse project that got kick started by James Tynion, the blind bag phenomenon that is Battle Beast (an Invincible spin-off series), a new direction for Supergirl where Sophie Campbell does double duty writing and illustrating Kara back in Midvale, and a brief nod of the hat to Godzilla: Here There Be Aliens. 

Today, we'll be talking about the Old Guard sequel, an All-Star Superman audio book, comic supplies tariffs, and alternate timeline for marvels alternate ultimate timeline?!?! The comics we'll be discussing include Star Wars, Captain Planet, Spacequest, Blood & Thunder, and Vargas' pick of the week... Vanishing Point!

This week we talk about wether a newer variant cover can defy the odds, and become a true "Classic" cover over time. AND of course we'll be talking about first issues along the way. Hope you find a new comic you love this week. XOXO - First Issue Club

Today, the club chats about the new Predator movie and the Beauty getting adapted into a TV show on FX! WOO! Then we're reading some comix. They're in the title, and they're goooood!

HEY! We're talking about first issues! If you wanna hear about the Fantastic Four trailer, we do that over on our patreon. OTHERWISE, stick around for some Thunderbolts and Diamond chatting. In addition to the books in the title, we've got another GI JOE silent mission (feat. Spirit), and Buried Long Long Ago.

This week we're talking tariffs and what a price increases means for us, and what they might mean for creators, before immediately contradicting ourselves and talking about how much money Skybound already made on the massive Transformers Kickstarter project.  For first issues, we're of course covering the new jumping on point for one the most iconic titles out there — Amazing Spider-Man!! Then we've got some minis and one-offs with Fire and Ice: When Hell Freezes Over #1 out of 6 on DC, and Dani's entry into the series of GI Joe 21 homages (better known as 'the silent issue') with GI Joe A Real American Hero: JINX - Silent missions #1.  We play a little bit of catch up on first issues past and talk Dark Pyramid, and Vargas reads each of the first issues of the Joe Hills old DC Black Label Imprint - Hill House!

There are a ton of first issues this week, and we're talking about as many of em as we can! Shout out to Valiants new Beyond books, that weren't at our shop this week. We'll try to catch up on those on the Patreon next week. BUT, we did cover Absolute Green Lantern, Daredevil: Cold Day in Hell, Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe One Last Time, Resurrection Man, I Was a Fashion School Serial Killer, and Past Time. OOO-WEE! What a treat. Such a platter. In the news we're talking about TFAWs online pre-orders stopping, new MCU Fantastic Four clips, and Skybound going public.
