It may be the night before Thanksgiving, but, more importantly, it’s Comic Book Day and we’re thankful for a bountiful pull list this year. Remember – when you’re feeling like you’re about to snap and finally tell Uncle Frank that his stories aren’t cute, they’re racist, just take a deep breath and pick up one of our top picks. Other than that, have a safe and happy holiday and trip the light tryptophantastic.
Top Picks
Indestructible Hulk #1 | Mark Waid & Leinil Yu
After a smashingly good turn in this summer’s blockbuster The Avengers, Hulk-hungry audiences have been clamoring for more Bruce Banner and today Marvel finally delivers. In Indestructible Hulk #1, one of their new Marvel NOW! titles, a superstar duo of Mark Waid (Daredevil) and Leinil Yu (New Avengers) set out to answer the question of what if that green bundle of rage and that bespectacled bundle of nerd rage found a way to work in tandem, combining their brains and brawn to defeat evil at every turn. Guess what? Indestructible Hulk #1 will smash your puny expectations (in a good way). Don’t let this one pass you by.
Edgar Allen Poe’s The Conqueror Worm |Â Richard Corben
In case the phrase “Richard Corben one-shot” wasn’t enough to send you running to the stands with money clenched in your fist, then the fact that the Eisner Hall of Famer is tackling one of Poe’s grislier poems should be icing on the morbid cake. What really shines about this Dark Horse one-shot is the atmosphere that Corben creates through his gorgeous illustrations, which transport the reader back in time and give the book a truly immersive feel. Plus, we are beyond down for anything that includes the phrase “gruesome puppet show based on [the protagonist’s] life” in the product description.
Fairest, Vol. 1 TPB |Â Bill Willingham & Phil Jimenez and Andy Lanning
Bill Willingham’s consistently excellent Fables-verse continues to expand with its lady-laden monthly series Fairest, which puts the spotlight on popular Fable femme fatales like Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Rapunzel and others. A perfect companion piece for dedicated Fables readers, this trade paperback collection puts the first seven issues in your hot little hands and should make that long flight home go by much faster. Let’s face it – were you really that excited to down three Bloody Marys then pass out on a fat guy midway through Hitch?

You know I was fine until I discovered this Nerdist feature two weeks ago. Now I’m waiting on my second Perhapnauts order in as many weeks and I’ve got a comiXology queue the size of King Kong.
