Comic Picks of the Week - 5th August

On initial glance I considered this to be a slow week for comics - however after looking a little closer there are a few pick ups worth grabbing.

Imperium #7

First up comes Imperium #7 which will pick up where the Divinity mini series finished.

Valiant are on fire at the moment and if pre-sales of this book are anything to go by then this is going to be a sell out and really hard to find!

Right now if you are super quick Forbidden Planet are still taking pre-orders, quite how long they will last is another question as comic buyers and speculators everywhere snap these up......

Imperium #7 Cover A

Imperium #7 Cover B

Cover B seems more popular at the moment and if you should stumble across Cover C (Pictured below) then as a 1:20 it's worth grabbing!

This Damned Band #1

Another book out this week is 'This Damned Band'

The book synopsis reads -

'1972: the worlds most famous rock band thought they were 'worshiping satan' only to find out they were actually wor-shiping Satan'

This book sounds really interesting and looks like it could be hilarious!

Pre-orders have been limited on this one to '1 copy per customer' but can still be picked up.

Don't be surprised if this has a low print run too!

This Damned Band #1

Darth Vader #8

Last but by no-means least this week comes Darth Vader #8.

Star Wars is hot right now (when has it never been) but it's about to get even hotter with the new movie set for December.

Comic book fans and Star Wars fans alike are snapping up all the latest releases - some to enjoy the stories others keen to spot new characters.

Either way anything that comes out is worth grabbing - and this book carries on that trend.

Darth Vader #8

So that concludes my pick ups for this week - other notable mentions worth checking out are -

• We Stand on Guard #2
• Dark Corridor #1
• Infinity Gauntlet #3

Enjoy New Comic Book Day everyone!
