The Pull List: ROCKETEER AT WAR #1, NAMESLESS #6, KING CONAN and More

Happy Holidays, Wednesday Warriors! One last comic trip before Santa comes and visions of the multiverse dance in our heads. As usual, we are here to arm you with a complete list of this week’s books and to call out a couple of our favorites. If you’re on the nice list this year, we hope you get all the omnibuses, deluxe editions, and fancy statues you deserve. If you’re on the naughty list, there’s a copy of Wertham’s Seduction of the Innocent in your stocking.

THE ROCKETEER AT WAR #1

Rocketeer at War #1 from IDW

Written By: Marc Guggenheim
Art By: David Bullock
Colors By: Ronda Pattison
Letters By: Gilberto Lazcano

Rocketeer comics are always a must buy; that’s just a rule to live your life by. A Rocketeer comic written by Marc Guggenheim with art from the fantastic David Bullock? That is something we simply can’t live without. This issue is a beauty and does a great job of capturing the Dave Stevens’ spirit. IDW has handled the Rocketeer license effortlessly, putting out awesome series after awesome series. The Rocketeer at War #1 looks like their winning streak isn’t breaking anytime soon.

NAMELESS #6

Namesless #6 from Image Comics

Written By: Grant Morrison
Art By: Chris Burnham
Colors By: Nathan Fairbairn
Letters By: Simon Bowland

Explaining Nameless is difficult, perhaps impossible. It’s a Lovecraftian-fueled nightmare, an endless trip of tentacles and hammer-smashed faces. What exactly is Grant Morrison saying with this series? Maybe a lot, maybe nothing at all. Either way, he’s got Chris Burnham bringing it to life in stunning fashion. It’s gross and beautiful, you fall in love and then want to vomit. Nameless is a comic that could only have been created by Morrison and Burnham, and for better or worse this is what has been unleashed on the world. Black Sun Rising, indeed.

KING CONAN: WOLVES BEYOND THE BORDER #6

King Conan: Wolves Beyond the Border #1 from Dark Horse Comics

Written By: Timothy Truman
Art By: Tomas Giorello
Colors By: Jose Villarrubia
Letters By: Richard Starkings

Timothy Truman and Tomas Giorello have been doing amazing stuff with the King Conan series. Each new mini-series is cause for celebration, and King Conan: Wolves Beyond the Border #1 is no exception. Truman has essentially sent himself up as the de facto Conan comics writer — he just gets the character better than anybody. Dark Horse may be experimenting with the character in other titles, but King Conan is straight out of the pulps. Giorello’s insanely detailed pencil work fits the barbarian’s world like a glove (glove covered in the blood of fallen foes). Read this comic and watch the heads roll. Literally. Heads are just being cut off every other page.

MOON GIRL AND DEVIL DINOSAUR #2

Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur #2 from Marvel Comics

Written By: Brandon Montclare and Amy Reeder
Art By: Natacha Bustos
Colors By: Tamra Bonvillain
Letters By: VC’s Travis Lanham

We loved the first issue of Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, and as luck would have it we are loving the second issue just as much. There are all sorts of Devil Dinosaur mayhem in these pages, from rampages through the city to difficult conversations under a bridge (reasoning with a dinosaur is no east task, even when their first name isn’t Devil). This series is so damn charming and lovable, you can’t help but feel completely engrossed in this little corner of the Marvel Universe. From hipster monkey men to Devil Dinosaur antics, this book is a winner through and through.

That’s it for us this week. What’s on your pull list? What’s on your Comic Christmas Wish List? Share it with us in the comments below!
