SUPERMAN: 100-PAGE SUPER SPECTACULA­R

HE’S written hundreds of Superman stories before, so when Marv Wolfman says this is the best tale he’s ever written, you know you’re in for a treat.

Written and drawn back in 2006 for the Superman Confidenti­al series, it never made it to the publishers... until now.

Man and Superman is a fulllength tale which takes place as Clark leaves Smallville and comes to Metropolis for the very first time. Not only is he looking for a job, he’s also trying to figure out if he wants to become Superman.

With gorgeous artwork by Claudio Castellini, Superman: 100-page Super Spectacula­r is out now priced £8.99.

THE GIRL IN THE BAY #1

FANS of a good mystery would do well to catch this first issue of the intriguing Girl in the Bay.

Set in 1969, Kathy Sartori is brutally attacked and her body thrown into Brooklyn’s Sheepshead Bay. Miraculous­ly though, the 17-year-old survives, but when she resurfaces she discovers that 50 years have passed, and that a doppelgang­er has lived out an entire life in her place.

Kathy is soon forced to confront this strange double, and the madman who killed her.

Written by J M DeMatteis, with art by Corin Howell, The Girl in the Bay #1 is out now priced £3.35.

G.I. JOE: SIERRA MUERTE #1

A CORE team of classic heroes are about to go rogue in this miniseries from the pen of Michel Fiffe.

Storm Shadow has gone AWOL, everyone is trying to thwart Cobra Command – even Cobra itself – and it’s down to a pack of America’s fighting elite to bring order from chaos.

Fiffe, who is responsibl­e for the award-winning indie comic Copra, also did the artwork for this run, so it promises to be something very special.

Look out for some gorgeous variant covers too.

G.I. Joe: Sierra Muerte #1 is out now, priced £4.25.
