EMPLOYEE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR 5/29!!

X-MEN #1

(W) Brian Wood  (A) Oliver Coipel

 Because you demanded it! The X-Women finally get their own book, from critically acclaimed superstars Brian Wood (X-MEN, ULTIMATE X-MEN, DMZ, The Massive) and Olivier Coipel (AVX, HOUSE OF M, THOR)! An old enemy shows up at the X-Men's door, seeking asylum from an ancient evil come back to earth. Meanwhile, Jubilee has come home, and she's brought with her an orphaned baby who might hold the key to the earth's survival...or its destruction. Against a backdrop of what seems like an alien invasion and an eons-spanning war between brother and sister, Storm steps up and puts together a team to protect the child and stop a new threat that could destroy all life on earth!

That's right, Casey, X-Men hater supreme is throwing his chips behind the all adjective less, regular calorie X-Men book that brings together all of my favorite X-Women in one place!! Channeling the evolved 90's Jim Lee vibe (complete with the Shirow touch), Coipel puts together the most deadly, badass and sexy looking Super-Heroes to ever pull on skin tight latex! Look how friggin cool/hip/hacker 90's slick Jubliee looks on that sentinel head!! And Storm with her F'Ning EPIC mohawk--Psylocke with her butt shots and much much more!! Plus, Bendis isn't writing it Bendis isn't writing it!!!! Oh man, happy day.

RECOMMENDED BY CASEY!!

ZANADU RECOMMENDATIONS FOR 6/13/12

MASSIVE #1

(W) Brian Wood  (A) Kristian Donaldson

In a post-war, post-crash, post-disaster, post-everything world, the environmental-action trawler Kapital scours the earth's oceans for its mysteriously missing sister ship, The Massive. Captain Callum Israel, a man who has dedicated his life to the ocean, now must ask himself-as our planet dies-what it means to be an environmentalist after the world's ended. Callum and his crew will come up against pirates, rebels, murderers, and thieves as they struggle to remain noble toward their cause. Can you save a planet that's already doomed?

From the team that brought you 'Supermarket', comes an ongoing story of survival amongst the treacherous waters of an Earth crippled by the folly of man. Despite the futility of it all, one man fights to keep his integrity and purpose against the pounding waves of fear and despair that erode all who attempt to hold on to their humanity in this hollow shell of a world.
