With the fall of Krakoa, the X-Men's dream of coexistence has never felt more impossible. Luckily, mutantkind’s very own pop princess has a song that will unite the masses - and paint a big target on her back - in an all-new Dazzler comic book limited series coming this September.
From rising Marvel star Jason Loo (Sentry) and newcomer artist Rafael Loureiro, we're getting a major Taylor Swift vibe from the cover below...which may or may not be a coincidence with the singer rumoured to be playing the character in Deadpool & Wolverine.
No stranger to headlining, Alison Blaire enjoyed a successful solo career outside the X-Men in the 1980s with the fondly remembered and long-running Dazzler series. Now, she’s back to inspire a whole new generation, spreading a message of love and acceptance one sold-out show at a time.

DC Comics' "Fire and Ice: Welcome to Smallville", available November 2023, is written by Joanne Starer and illustrated by Natacha Bustos. with covers by Terry Dodson and Rachel Dodson:
"...things could not possibly be worse for 'Fire and Ice'. 'Superman' sent the former 'Justice Leaguers' packing for 'Smallville' following an extremely public and utterly disastrous mission, that was all the fault of 'Guy Gardner' and in doing so doomed them to a fate worse than death: irrelevance.
"Now 'Ice' finds herself drawn to the quiet life and dreams of planting roots. But 'Fire'…well, Fire will do just about anything to get the heck outta Dodge and back on the hero circuit—including challenging the Dcu’s biggest villains to a knock-down, drag-out, live-streamed brawl in the streets of Smallville..."

This comic obviously doesn’t really exist. There is no Amazing Fantasy #1000, it exists only in the heads of the Marvel marketing department. Spider-Man’s 60th anniversary, however, does exist, and he’s one of a handful of characters that forced his way into mainstream pop culture many years before Marvel became the pop culture juggernaut it now is. Peter Parker is, of course, all of us when we were teenage kids. Socially awkward, tough home life, constantly short of money…take your pick, there’s something in there that everyone could relate to. The fact he gained his powers also made every kid reading think, hey, if it happened to him, it could happen to me.
Peter Parker has also had a massive influence on a lot of professionals now working in the industry, as this anniversary issue shows.

As Grant Morrison wraps up his sprawling multiversal epic in The Green Lantern, the architect of the modern DC Metaverse will also be finishing his foray into Earth One. Wonder Woman: Earth One Vol. 3, the finale of Morrison and Yanick Paquette’s multi-year graphic reimagining will be arriving in stores this march.
Volume three picks up right where the last story left off. After successfully beating back Uberfraulein, the leader of an invading Nazi force who the Amazons attempted to rehabilitate after her capture, Wonder Woman has become queen of the Amazons. Diana is preparing her sisters for an attack from man’s world; specifically, government weapons dealer Max Lord and his A.R.E.S. armors. She’s determined to fight back against what she perceives as the god of war and try and bring Themiscyran values to the world of man.

Get your first look at Wonder Woman #75 right here!
There are two things I really dig about Wonder Woman #75. The first is the art. Specifically, Xermanico's work on the big double-page splashes. You'll see one in the preview below that DC sent over, but they persist throughout the issue.
Many great Wonder Woman artists have used the technique of illuminating the gutters with ancient Greek-looking artwork. It's a trick that adds atmosphere to a book, which is so important to the comic reading experience. It's so easy to go from one-word balloon to the next and not slow down to take in the totality of the story the page is trying to tell. Things like illuminated page gutters or quirky panel flow help pull readers out of that literal reading of a comic to make sure you're appreciating the full scope of the work.
The second isn't in the preview.

Lex Luthor is leading the charge in DC's Year of the Villain, and Justice League reveals his new look.
We are living through a little bit of a Martian Manhunter renaissance right now. On the one hand, you’ve got Steve Orlando and Riley Rossmo’s terrific “Year One”-esque take on J’onn’s time on Mars and how that shaped the man he is today in his solo miniseries, Martian Manhunter. It’s a weird, fascinating story about Martian life that, of course, looks incredible as is to be expected from Rossmo’s art.
On the other hand, you have Scott Snyder and James Tynion IV’s Justice League. It’s approaching him kind of like the Timmverse/DC Animated Universe did: he’s quietly the most important person on the team. In the cartoon, he was rarely the focus - it was always about John and Shayera’s relationship,...

It's the biggest team up you can imagine when Wonder Woman and Giganta get together.
For most comic books, the biggest draw for a comic book is the title character or team, with the writer and penciller being close behind in driving readers to a book - Batman is usually going to sell a bunch regardless of who's working on it, whereas Conan isn't going to move anyone's needle without someone of Jason Aaron's caliber working on it. So please understand that I recognize how out of the ordinary what I'm about to say is:
You should read Wonder Woman #66 for Mick Gray's inks and Romulo Fajardo's colors.
The two job titles are moving in different directions in today's comics industry. We've been known to get on one about colorists in the past, so it's probably no surprise that we're big fans of the work Romulo...

You might already know that Aftershock Comics is on a roll. In just three years, they’ve won Diamond’s Publisher of the Year award (for publishers under a certain market share) and have pushed several properties forward to media deals. It’s a publisher that seems to attract smart talent and then provides the support and freedom to create strong work.
Aftershock Comics’ tagline is “The Year of Reading Dangerously.” That has the sense of urgency and the zing that the entire industry needs. In fact, I’ve been hearing John Siuntres talk about Aftershock on his excellent Word Balloon podcast (Aftershock is a sponsor). An interview with creator of Moth & Whisper inspired me to pick up a series I probably wouldn’t have otherwise, in fact.
One of Aftershock’s most recent debuts was Oberon #1. The king of the fairies, Oberon, may be best known for his role...

Exclusive: Wonder Woman writer Allan Heinberg is aiming to bring more female superheroes to the screen, this time in television.
ABC has given a production commitment to an untitled hourlong drama from Heinberg, Marvel Television and ABC Studios. Written by Heiinberg, it is about female characters with superpowers.
In typical Marvel fashion, further details are being kept close to the vest, but I hear the drama is based on lesser-known Marvel characters. There have been a number of fairly obscure female superhero team-ups that have appeared sporadically in Marvel comics over the years, including A-Force, Lady Liberators and Fearless Defenders.
Heinberg, who is under an overall deal at ABC Studios, is executive producing the potential series with Marvel Television’s Jeph Loeb.
Launching a new Marvel series has been a priority for ABC, with the Heinberg project emerging as a strong contender from the get-go, I hear.
