Saturday is right here, and which means Weekend Reading 126 has arrived! We’re hoping you’ll share your studying plans with us, both right here within the remark part or over on social media @comicsbeat.
AVERY KAPLAN: I’m having a double Who HQ weekend! The nonfiction children graphic novel sequence has secured some very proficient creators. First up is Who Was a Daring Pioneer of the Skies? Amelia Earhart written by Melanie Gillman and illustrated by A.C. Esguerra. Then, it’s on to Who Was the First Man on the Moon? Neil Armstrong by Nathan Page and Drew Shannon.
ADAM KARENINA SHERIF: I’ve been actually having fun with choosing up single points that I merely really feel like studying and never stressing about having all of the previous points. “Every issue is someone’s first issue” and all that goodness. This week’s haul included Black Adam #2 by Priest and Rafa Sandoval, Sword Of Azrael: Dark Knight Of The Soul by Dan Watters and Nikola Čižmešija, and Edge Of Spider-Verse #2 that includes the debut of Spider-UK by Ramzee and Ruairí Coleman which I’m significantly jazzed about.
ZACK QUAINTANCE: I’m ending a novel that I’ve completely been devouring — Severance by Ling Ma (no relation to the present). It’s pretty much as good of an end-of-the-world story as I’ve learn, and whereas not as flashy as one thing like Station Eleven, I think about followers of that one would nonetheless like Severance lots. As for comics, the Mike Grell Green Arrow learn I’m doing is down to simply three extra points, and I’ll be studying begin to end Phenomena: The Golden City of Eyes, a forthcoming graphic novel from author Brian Michael Bendis and artist André Lima Araújo.
TAIMUR DAR: I’ve been fascinated seeing the lowering dependence of Hollywood movies on the Chinese field workplace with movies like Top Gun: Maverick and Spider-Man: No Way Home. So I’m going to learn up on the historical past with Red Carpet: Hollywood, China, and the Global Battle for Cultural Supremacy by Erich Schwartzel. And very similar to Zack, I picked up and began studying Phenomena: The Golden City of Eyes throughout SDCC however I’ve been so busy since returning I haven’t had an opportunity to complete it. So I’m hoping to get to the graphic novel as effectively.
DEAN SIMONS: Last weekend turned out to be surprisingly busy – and this one seems to be additionally – so my studying of this month’s Forever Magazine has carried over. Also, I lastly was capable of watch Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero this week and it made me quite nostalgic for the early manga so I’m revisiting Akira Toriyama’s authentic DB comics this weekend. Dragon Ball Z was the primary anime I used to be religiously hooked on as a child (although Teknoman was up there) and it was because of that I began studying manga. Nice to have the ability to revisit that point.
