It’s a pretty big week for Valiant Comics, who usually has only two books on the racks any given week. This week, the same holds true this week, but with the addition of a compendium of the original Harbinger Wars.

The biggest, baddest villain in the Marvel Universe will be gracing the cover of Infinity Wars Prime #1. And he’ll be in rare form, penciled by the legendary George Perez and Richard Isanove.

Captain America is about to start a fresh run over at Marvel Comics, and the publisher has brought in a legendary artist for a first issue variant. Joe Jusko will be bringing the Sentinel of Liberty to life this July.

Diamond will have a full booth this Comic Con, with loads of exclusive items. These run the gamut too, from comic books to Vinimates, statues, and more.

Expect a deluge of variant covers for Tony Stark: Iron Man #1 from Marvel Comics next month. A whopping 20 different versions of the book are slated to hit the racks.

Ninja-K #10 takes Ninjak and the series on a new ride, albeit for just one issue. The book is a standalone tale, that delves into the 1980’s version of MI-6’s Ninja program. Ninja-H is part man, part machine, all ninja.

DC Comics is still relishing in the glow of “1000”, with multiple variant editions out there for Action Comics’ milestone right now. But there’s more to come, with an end-all edition hitting stores this coming September.

How many winners will there be in Infinity Wars? Quite a few apparently. First a “Thanos Wins” teaser hit the other day, and now we get a look at a combat-ready Death. And she is apparently also quite victorious.

While Infinity War is raging in theaters across the world, Marvel is about to launch into another “Infinity” themed comic crossover. Infinity Wars (with an ‘s’) hits in the not too distant future, and the publisher has begun the hype machine with a pair of teaser images.

Valiant’s most mysterious and supernatural hero, Shadowman has been making quite the comeback to prominence here in 2018. But the tale told in issue #4 won’t be about the current version of the character, but instead focus on one of his ancestors.

Have you been following the current run of Valiant’s biggest hero, X-O Manowar? Well, even if you have, you might dig this new Compendium from the publisher. The massive tome includes over 800 pages of content, collecting a good chunk of the character’s modern run.

It’s Alien Day, and that usually means a slate of xenomorphic announcements. Of course, Dark Horse Comics is getting down on that, since they’ve been the Aliens publisher for decades. And this year, that means a massive collected edition, called Aliens Essential Comics Volume 1.

The second issue of the freshly renewed Shadowman series ghosts into stores this week, along with issue #14 of X-O Manowar. That’s a big one, by the way, as Aric finally returns to Earth.

The first family of Marvel is back. And the Fantastic Four will be returning in style, with covers by artist Esad Ribic. Get a look at the first one, as well as a teaser trailer for the book, after the break.

Superman has hit a monster of a milestone. DC’s Action Comics has, at long last, arrived at the landmark issue #1000, and you best believe there are variants. A whole lot of variants.

Marvel has had a pretty nice run with Star Wars since re-taking the license. Their main book is going strong and is about to hit issue #50.
