As September draws to a close and we move into what will be a remarkably busy October for Marvel Comics we are back with this weeks selections. There isn't a great deal around to choose from this week however we've highlighted a few that might be worth grabbing if the opportunity should present itself..... So as always below are this weeks 'Comic Picks of the Week' Hip Hop Family Tree #2 Hip Hop Family Tree issue #1 was a must have book to get - and issue #2 is no different. With a TV show in the works along with Hip Hop and Comics going hand in hand at the moment (see the upcoming Hip Hop Variant covers from Marvel) this book sits with a ton of potential. In this issue we see Hip Hop jump from the streets into the record business with a focus on acts like the Sugar Hill Gang and Grandmaster Flash. This is one that will be in demand long term - so it's worth getting a couple at cover now whilst you still can. The link to pre-order this is below - Hip Hop Family Tree #2 The Cavalry S.H.I.E.L.D 50th Anniversary (Action Figure Variant) It seems as if action figure variants simply sit in the 'picks of the week section' permanently these days. Another week sees another figure variant and this time round Agent Melinda May gets the treatment. When doing my regular comic book store run round this week I did notice that the figure variant featuring Fitz and Simmons wasn't stocked in massive numbers so do wonder if they have been ordered in lesser numbers in recent weeks with demand slowing down.... Regardless this is another for the set - down the line people will be looking for issues they missed and this could be one of them. Order this one below - The Cavalry Action Figure Variant Bloodthirsty - One Nation Under Water #1 Last up this week comes another Titan Comics title. Titan seem to be doing very well this year with Doctor Who's continuing success and recently Rivers of London flying off the shelves. This time round we have what already seems to be a tricky book to get in Bloodthirsty. The synopsis is as follows - Haunted by the catastrophe that tore his city apart 10 years ago, Coast Guard veteran Virgil Lafleur struggles with the hardships of a post Katrina New Orleans. But when his younger brothers murder leads him into a vortex of intrigue, corruption and violence Virgil becomes obsessed with bringing the killer to justice. This should be an interesting book if not only for the read. Pre Order this one below - Bloodthirsty #1 So that's it for another week - other comics worth keeping an eye on are -
Archie #3 Disciples #4 However by all cases not a massive week for comics.... That being said that normally means there will be a scramble for a book everyone has overlooked! Until next week - Happy Comic Book Hunting!
