The Pull List: BATMAN TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES II, AMERICA, and MORE

Welcome, Wednesday Warriors! It’s new comic book day! But before you head to the local comic shop, arm yourself with a few recommendations—add a new title or two to your list. And for you big spenders out there, we also have a complete list of this week’s releases. Live your best life and read comic books. Without them, you dwell in darkness.

BATMAN TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES II #3

Batman Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II #3 from DC Comics and IDW Publishing

Written By: James Tynion IV and Ryan Ferrier
Art By: Freddie Williams II
Colors By: Jeremy Colwell
Letters By: Tom Napolitano

The awesomeness of the latest team-up of Batman and TMNT continues big in Batman Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II #3. Thanks to that jerk Baxter Stockman, all of the Turtle’s greatest foes are getting jacked up on Venom, rendering the lot significantly swole; this is bad news for Batman and his ninja buddies, obviously. James Tynion IV and Ryan Ferrier script a laser-hot story while the mighty Freddie Williams II, backed by the superb color art of Jeremy Colwell, produces some truly beautiful pages here. Come for the beefed-up Hand Ninjas, stay for the Raphel and Damian fight.

AMERICA #11

America #11 from Marvel Comics

Written By: Gabby Rivera
Art By: Stacey Lee with Flaviano
Colors By: Jordan Gibson with Chris O’ Halloran
Letters By: VC’s Travis Lanham

America is not Marvel Comics’ usual kind of series. Perhaps that’s why it was never really meant for this world (its cancelation has already been announced), but if you never gave this book a shot you are really missing out. Gabby Rivera doesn’t write America like a typical superhero book. The energy and life of it never feel contained to the Marvel Universe; it’s bigger than that in the best possible ways.

Visually, it moves almost like a cartoon, with a vibrant fluidity that bursts off the page. Stacey Lee and Flaviano inject so much personality and charm into every panel, you can’t help but smile when you read this thing… largely because the characters are smiling right back at you. Then there are the colors. Folks, the colors in America are out of this world. Jordan Gibson with Chris O’ Halloran make this thing absolutely shine. America #11 is a great and a perfect example of everything this series does well. It’s a real shame it’s not staying around longer.

ICE CREAM MAN #1

Ice Cream Man #1 from Image Comics

Written By: W. Maxwell Prince
Art By: Martin Morazzo
Colors By: Chris O’ Halloran
Letters By: Good Old Neon

Look what we have here! Why, it’s a charming new comic series called Ice Cream Man! This must be a delightful romp about good times, delicious treats, and friendly folks, right?! What’s that you say? Oh, it’s a nightmarish hellscape about rotting corpses, venomous spiders, and werewolves? Well, that’s pretty fun, too. W. Maxell Prince, Martin Morazzo, and Chris O’Halloran definitely subvert expectations with this one. Don’t let the bright colors and happy smiles on the cover fool you—this comic is an anthology horror series and it’s downright terrifying. We loved it like we love mint chocolate chip ice cream, which is to say we loved it a lot.

Okay, that’s it for us this week! We hope 2018 is an awesome year of comic book reading for you. Check out the complete list of this week’s books below and let us know in the comments what you’re reading and loving these days.
