Why this caught my eye:

Momoko has been getting a lot of spotlighting at Marvel so I'm glad to see her getting a core title as full creator. Check out this little trailer Marvel pulled together for more.

ANARCHY IN THE SPIDER-VERSE! SPIDER-PUNK GETS HIS OWN SERIES!


HOBIE BROWN is THE ANARCHIC SPIDER-PUNK - set to protect EARTH-138 with his ax in hand and his chaotic band of punk rockin' heroes backing him!

Why this caught my eye:

Can always go for some more Hobie Brown Spidey, and I'm really liking Mason's art.

 

WEAPON X-MEN #1

A MULTIVERSE OF LOGANS BANDS TOGETHER! 


In Original X-Men, you saw the Phoenix recruit the young X-Men to fix yet another time-displaced disaster. But now the threat is deadlier than ever...and it's time to call in the X-Men's big gun. He's the best there is at what he does, in every universe does it in...and this job is too big for just one of him. Wolverines from across the Multiverse converge to take on a foe even the Phoenix fears! But with friends like Zombie Wolverine, who needs enemies? Christos Gage and Yildiray Çinar kick off an action-packed epic!

Why this caught my eye:

One would think we would be tired of the multiversal teams by now, but this sounds fun enough and that's a solid creative team.

 

DEADPOOL #1

A NEW ERA FOR THE MERC WITH A MOUTH, AND A GUN, AND A SWORD... 


CODY ZIGLAR (Futurama, Miles Morales: Spider-Man) has a wild ride planned for the Merc with the mouth! Introducing a terrifying new villain who won't stop until he catches Wade in his DEATH GRIP. But all work and no play makes Deadpool a very dead boy!

JAN240885


Why this caught my eye:

I just hope that's not Hydra Bob on the cover. Also, Antonio's art's looking pretty nice.

 

MS MARVEL MUTANT MENACE #1

HATED AND FEARED!


Ms. Marvel has officially come out to the world as a mutant and a member of the X-Men...and she's about to learn just how hard things can get for mutantkind! Kamala Khan is used to being a hometown hero - there's no way her community would turn on her just because she's a mutant, right? ...Right??
