This Weeks Comic Book Preview (24/05/2017)

This week from DC Comics is looking to be a good one.

First of all we have Detective Comics #957. After the events in the League of Shadows story arc, we have the return of Stephanie Brown, AKA Spoiler. She has not featured in this title for a while, after the perceived 'death' of her boyfriend Tim Drake a few months ago, and when she was attacked by various 'victims' of Batman, she left and has not been seen since. This week 'The Wrath of Spoiler' begins. The issue is available for around £2.30.

We are also being treated to Batgirl #11, which will see the finale of 'Son of Penguin'. After the events of last issue which saw The Penguin make his appearance and attempting to help Batgirl, Ethan Cobblepot's plan is coming to a head. This book is available for just over £3, which indicates to me that it will be a slightly longer issue than we have been offered in the past.

From Marvel this week, we are being offered the next chapter in Captain America: Steve Roger, which is serving the purpose of being a tie-in for the Secret Empire Event, and will give us further development on Steve's plans as the Supreme Leader of Hydra, and what his plans are for the rest of the world. Available for just over £3.

Also from Marvel, we have the first issue of I Am Groot, which seems to be starring our favourite tree in his Baby Groot from, mirroring the recent release of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. I think that this could be an interesting series if it is handled correctly.

And finally from Marvel this week, we have Infamous Iron Man #8, which sees The Maker  enact his plan for Victor Von Doom. I've loved this series so far, and hope that Von Doom stays a good guy for as long as possible.
