If you’ve been following Mark Millar’s amazing Old Man Logan arc, you’re probably as excited as I am that Wolverine #71 dropped this week.

Steve McNiven’s artwork perfectly complements the tone and pace of the story. Here’s the story so far. Warning: SPOILERS AHEAD!

Daredevil: Born Again, the seminal, legendary story by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli, starts off in the thick of the action and doesn’t stop, ripping through Daredevil issues #227 through #233, taking the reader on a searing, gut-wrenching ride that’s provoking and thoroughly entertaining. It makes you question: what makes a hero? What makes a friend? A lover? An honorable man? A patriot? How low can a man (or woman) be taken (or take himself) and still survive?

I’ve got to admit, I’m a sucker for unconventional superhero comics, which is why I loved the initial run of The Umbrella Academy, by Gerard Way and Gabriel Ba–despite the hype (’cause I can be contrary like that). The vivid artwork, unusual characters, and time-shifting plot caught my attention, and I’ve been eagerly awaiting The Umbrella Academy: Dallas #1 ever since. Fortunately, since I work for TFAW.com, I was able to get my hands on an advance copy so I can tell you what you’re in for!

The first issue of The Cleaners, written by Mark Wheaton and Joshua Hale Fialkov and drawn by Rahsan Ekedal, reads like a cross between an episode of CSI, The X-Files, and the aftermath of a horror flick. Is it a forensic mystery? A supernatural tale? A how-to manual for cleaning up after a mass murder? I'm not sure yet, but the debut issue has definitely piqued my interest.
