Yeah, I should feel bad about a good JMS story about college-era Spider-Man but boy did this really just get me into ranting about how Nick Lowe and Marvel Editorial in general just seem to be lost at sea with that IP.

With several miniseries spawning out, do we really need an anthology to try and flesh it out even more? No but it's not that bad. 

WORLD OF REVELATION #1 with three stories so we’ll get to the creatives when we get to those but first, the solicit.

This book is obnoxious which means I know it's also out there as someone's favorite book of the week. It is definitely not on mine. 

LONGSHOTS #1, written by Gerry Duggan and Jonathan Hickman, art by Alan Robinson, colors by Yen Nitro, with letters by Ariana Maher.

It feels like a solid first draft of a story but not entirely sure if its worth reading issue to issue. 

LAURA KINNEY - SABRETOOTH #1 written by Erica Shultz, art by Valentina Pinti, colors by Rachelle Rosenberg, with letters by Cory Petit.

So Carol Danvers has a random book in the Revelation line where she's the current Phoenix. Of course because everyone gets to be a Phoenix at one point in their lives at this point. It's not bad though. 

BINARY #1, written by Stephanie Phillips, art by Giada Belusio, colors by Rachelle Rosenberg, with letters by Travis Lanham.

I was not actually expecting to really enjoy this but well, here we are. 

AMAZING X-MEN #1 written by Jed MacKay, art by Mahmud Asrar, colors by Matthew Wilson, with letters by Clayton Cowles.

Yeah, after that long talk about the DC KO Bracket, we get the first issue... which cuts the last fourth of that bracket talk away completely. Cheers. 

DC K.O. #1, written by Scott Snyder, art by Javi Fernandez, interlude art by Xermanico, colors by Alejandro Sanchez, with letters by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou.

A fantastic look at the DC KO Bracket, where you get to hear the Comic Archivist try to explain some of the characters on the list, and how power scaling works in the DC Universe.

After seeing the preview for this in every Mad Cave book I've covered, I am really happy it's a fantastically fun first issue! 

GUNPOWDER PROPHETS #1 written by Justin Jordan, art by Patrick Piazzalunga, colors by Roman Stevens, with letters by Taylor Esposito.

Yes. Yes. A thousand times yes. Legitimately one of the best first issues ever to get you needing to read the rest. Love it! 

STARSHIP GODZILLA #1 written by Chris Gooch, art by Oliver Ono, with letters by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou.
