quote:ASTONISHING CAPTAIN AMERICA #1 (of 5) Written by ANDY DIGGLE Art & Cover by ADI GRANOV When a top-secret orbital research station is dragged from the sky by an unknown alien force, army-of-one Steve Rogers finds himself caught between two global superpowers on the brink of war! But how does it involve Volkov, a Russian officer he last crossed paths with during the closing days of World War II, and who disappeared on an ill-fated lunar mission over forty years ago? The red-hot creative team of Andy Diggle (DAREDEVIL, SHADOWLAND) and Adi Granov (IRON MAN: EXTREMIS) send super-soldier Captain America on a one-man mission into the heart of darkness! 32 PGS./Rated T+ …$3.99
His Thunderbolts run got off to a glorious start, then crashed and burned. His Daredevil run, what little I read before dropping it, was insipid. I didn't even bother with Shadowland.
But, dammit, deep down I still believe in Andy Diggle!! His work on The Losers and Adam Strange made me a Diggle fangirl for life!!
This appears to have sci-fi elements, which would be a step in the right direction.

Mark Waid on Daredevil? I'm definitely intrigued! Art by my favorite Marcos Martin? He'll yes! I'm actually excited about the DD relaunch now after this last era being such a dissapointment.
And Moon Knight and Alpha Flight actually look pretty groovy too.

There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met.

Oh look, Hercules is back. I'm not digging his new look, but I never really dug his old look, so I guess he can't win with me.

Matt Wagner returns to Zorro in July! Great news!
I've been raving about how good his Zorro series by Dynamite was (it was utterly fantastic) and I'm thrilled he's going to do another 12 issues.

Dynamite picked up the licensing for the Shadow! Cool! I'm almost definitely getting that.
PS - should this thread be deheadlined? Posts have been inconsistent since the early Spring. Either way works for me, I'm just curious.

Marvel December (and possibly November?) really push Valkyrie into the forefront. The FEAR ITSELF event has been iffy, at best-- but some of the stuff spinning out of it could be good. It looks like Val's going to run a gauntlet, of sorts, facing various Marvel characters. Including a meeting I've wanted to see for decades now. Dani Moonstar, shown riding Brightwind is one of the characters Val's going to face. I can't wait!
What caught your eye in December's solicits?
