It’s new Comic Book Day, so let’s get into today’s releases!

Single Issues:

• Everything comes down to this!
•  Kingpin’s quest that violates all natural law!
•  Tombstone and Robbie Robertson’s years’ old enmity!
•  Randy Robertson and Beetle’s timeless love!
•  Boomerang’s scheme!
•  Spider-Man’s whole status quo!

The last part to the King’s Ransom storyline, so don’t go into this without reading that!

The teenage Hyperion’s cosmic quests with his Shi’ar friends near their end, but none of the young heroes are ready to say farewell. A quick mission in the Negative Zone sounds like the perfect coda to a storied fellowship…but what awaits Hyperion, Gladiator and the rest is horror and agony beyond their wildest nightmares!
Also included in this issue: a special preview of the new spinoff series, THE STARJAMMERS!

Part of the Heroes Reborn event, so make sure you’ve read issue 1 of Heroes Reborn, released last week! This specific issue is introducing the Imperial Guard – this universe’s Guardians Of The Galaxy!

Peter Parker is the biggest Hyperion fan in the world, and he also just happens to be chummy with his favorite hero thanks to a photography gig at the Daily Bugle! SURELY, nothing can go wrong, with his camera (and him) in the heart of the action… Right?

Another tie-in to Heroes Reborn!

KRAKOA IS FOR CLOSERS!
The deals have been made. Mutantkind is safe on Krakoa.  As the Reign of X continues, what are the wants of the mutants who have everything? Leading the charge is X-CORPORATION, headed by CXOs Monet St. Croix and Warren Worthington, a duo as cutthroat and ruthless in the boardroom as they are on a battlefield. But X-Corp needs more than just its figureheads. As Monet sets out to staff their team with some of the brightest and most deviant minds in mutantkind, Warren finds himself in a tense meeting with one of Krakoa’s first allies who wants to know the truth: on Angel’s wings, will X-Corp crash or soar?  

The next series in Jonathan Hickman’s epic X-Men run! This is taking place after Dawn Of X, Empyre and Reign Of X, so you’ll need to be all caught up – I’ve got a Dawn Of X reading guide up now, Empyre coming this month, and will be doing a follow up with Reign of X and all other X-Men goings-on when there’s a few more bind ups come out!
