January comics / cómics de enero

The beginning of 2016 comes with plenty of comics, just the way I like it. The first issue of Silver Surfer was very good, and I really enjoyed the conclusion of Nameless (I’ll be reviewing the series in April); Doctor Strange and Jupiter’s Circle keep getting better and better. I must say my favorite comic of the month was Alan Moore’s Providence # 6. And now without further ado here are January comics as per solicitations:

ALL NEW ALL DIFFERENT AVENGERS #3  
(W) Mark Waid (A) Adam Kubert, Mahmud A. Asrar (CA) Alex Ross. Warbringer has made good on his name, and the All-New Avengers stand poised to yank defeat from the jaws of victory unless they can put their differences aside--and in the case of Ms. Marvel and Nova, that doesn't seem very likely! Rated T+

BLACK MAGICK #1
(W) Greg Rucka (A/CA) Nicola Scott. The hammer falls this Halloween! From New York Times bestselling and Eisner Award-winning writer GREG RUCKA (LAZARUS, Stumptown, Gotham Central) and superstar artist NICOLA SCOTT (Birds of Prey, Secret Six, Earth 2)! Detective Rowan Black works robbery/homicide for the Portsmouth PD, but her greatest mystery is the truth about herself…both who she has been, and who she will become. Yet there are others in Rowan's world with very long memories, and the power that one person holds, another will always covet. PLUS, each issue also features an all-new work of original fiction by GREG RUCKA! A new gothic-noir ongoing series about legacy, destiny, redemption…and the price of magic.

DC ESSENTIALS DC THE NEW FRONTIER #1
World War II is over. The Cold War has begun. And the Age of the Super-hero is in decline. But where are the heroes of tomorrow? This is the opening chapter of DC: THE NEW FRONTIER, reprinted at just $1.00 with pages from the DC ESSENTIALS CATALOGUE!

DOCTOR STRANGE #4 
(W) Jason Aaron (A/CA) Chris Bachalo. Doctor Strange has gathered a circle of magic-using friends to try and best monitor magic in the Marvel Universe. But this tactic is too late as forces are destroying all magical objects and beings in the multiverse and they are turning their sights on our dimension. At least Strange won't have to die alone... Rated T+

HUCK #3 
(W) Mark Millar (A/CA) Rafael Albuquerque. Huck takes his mission across the country, helping those in need, while powerful figures in the US establishment try to use his abilities for their own ends.

INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #1 
(W) Brian Michael Bendis (A/CA) David Marquez. Exploding out of the pages of Secret Wars, one of the most popular super heroes in the world gets a gigantic new series. From the creators that brought you Ultimate Spider-Man comes new armor, a new supporting cast, new villains and a new purpose that is going to tear itself across the entire Marvel Universe and beyond. With a shocker of a last page that will have everyone talking and the return of one of Tony's biggest nemeses, you will not want to miss this! Also, who are Tony's biological parents? The quest begins here!

JUPITER'S CIRCLE, VOL. 2 #2 (MR)  
(W) Mark Millar (A) Wilfredo Torres (CA) Frank Quitely. Disillusioned Skyfox tunes out with the Beat Generation, while his former teammates struggle to face social unrest.

LUCIFER 1 SPECIAL EDITION (MR)
(W) Mike Carey (A) Chris Weston, James A. Hodgkins (CA) Duncan Fegredo. Reprinting the first issue of the hit series for just $1.00! When Lucifer Morningstar asked Dream of the Endless to sever his wings so he could walk among mortals, the former Lord of Hell thought he was making the right decision. But managing a piano bar in L.A. has lost its charm, and now the darkest star in the City of Angels is ready to get back in the game. Only this time he'd rather play God.

MIRACLEMAN BY GAIMAN & BUCKINGHAM #6 (MR)
(W) Neil Gaiman (A/CA) Mark Buckingham. The cast of the Golden Age converges on London to remember, to renew and to rejoice. Miracleman walks amongst the London's Day crowds searching for answers -- before revealing a miraculous gift to humankind! Then, in 'Retrieval,' HE wakes up...and the Silver Age begins! Including material originally presented in MIRACLEMAN (1985) #22, plus bonus content. Mature

NAMELESS #6 (MR) 
(W) Grant Morrison (A/CA) Chris Burnham. The end has come for Nameless and the crew of the White Valiant. Imprisoned within the labyrinthine mind of a monstrous alien lifeform, there can be no escape, no exit, no hope. But who is the Veiled Lady and what part will she play in Earth's salvation-or its damnation?

PROVIDENCE #6 (MR) 
(W) Alan Moore (A/CA) Jacen Burrows. Fans and critics alike are hailing Alan Moore's Providence as the horror event of the year! Mild mannered newsman Robert Black is uncovering a mysterious undercurrent of fear as the pieces of the Lovecraftian puzzle slowly begin to make a coherent picture. The dramatic tension is building with each incredible ad-free 40 page issue and this issue begins the big unveils. The work has been researched and developed by Moore and Burrows over the course of several years. And the end result is an amazing tome of Lovecraftian influenced nightmares where Moore has written every cover, every single page, and every nuance of this work to create his most fully-realized vision to date.Fans of Moore's immersive style and meticulous grasp of storytelling will be thrilled to add this essential piece of comics history to their collections! Available with Regular, Pantheon, Portrait, Dreamscape Wraparound, Women of HPL, and a special Ancient Tome Incentive cover, all by collaborator Jacen Burrows.

RED THORN #1
(W) David Baillie (A) Meghan Hetrick-Murante (CA) Choong Yoon. On the rain-soaked streets of Glasgow, a girl whose drawings somehow come to life has just stumbled across her one true love. And thousands of miles below those streets, an ancient demi-god plots his escape from the prison where he's been held for nearly two thousand years. Evil forces are at play and no one is safe as the legends of Scottish mythology collide with the modern world. Fans of FABLES and THE SANDMAN won't want to miss this riveting dark fantasy epic!
