"Reborn," "Moonshine," "Romulus" & More In Image Comics October 2016 Solicitations

[Samurai Jack]

Definitely planning on buying Alex + Ada: The Complete Collection Deluxe Edition HC! Been waiting for that series to be collected in one book.

I'm not liking that Wayward is now 3.99 monthly, especially since I've been buying regular and variant covers per every issue. I may either not buy the fourth story arc now, or I'll just buy Wayward up to #20 and then switch to trades or hardcovers for the rest of the story. I'll probably wait for Glitterbomb to be collected in trade as well after buying the first issue.

New Image comics I might buy, with bolded titles likely being definitive buys:

Moonshine 1
Reborn 1
Green Valley 1
Romulus 1
Black Light District: 6 Issues (One-Shot)
Outcast 22
Red One 4
Snotgirl 4
Wayward 17
The Double Life of Miranda Turner Vol. 1: If You Have Ghosts TP

Goddamned (Jason Aaron really needs to think about a new artist for this book.)

I'm not sure I'd assume Guerra is the problem here.

[Paulie Blade]

To those wondering - yes, Reborn will consist of six issues, at least that's what I remember from Capullo's twitter. What's funny is I never expected this to be an Image title.

Concur that Capullo's Twitter stated as 6-issue mini.

Are we sure it's not Guerra? Aaron's other books seem to come out on time. Being another Image book of his, does Southern Bastards suffer delays on a regular basis? I don't read the book so I have no clue on that one. It could be on Aaron's end. I'm open to it. Look at what happened when Hickman was over worked at Marvel. Everything he worked on suffered for it and all had delays of some sort.

Cool to see Ancestor getting a trade release! It's been running for a while now in Island Magazine and man, this whole story is nuts. Starts out as fairly generic (if disturbing) "join our cult"-fare, but around the third issue it's devolved into absolute madness. Not sure if I like it? But it sure is weird...

Habitat also ran in Island btw, always nice to see Simon Roy draw far-future societies on the brink of collapse, especially in colour.

I've not read any Alex + Ada before but I hear good things so I'll probably end up getting the deluxe of that.

Definitely worth a read. If you like the artstyle (be sure to check some previews), this series is a real treat. One of my favourites from last year for sure.

does Southern Bastards suffer delays on a regular basis?

It's suffered HUGE delays recently. It could be a combination, but Guerra is an old pro and never had problems on Scalped that I recall.

Descender #16
Lazarus #26

On break:

Wasn't it just one big delay for the last issue?

Still annoying when they go right back on hiatus afterwards though.


EDIT: Nevermind I forget that he has more than one creator owned book. D'oh!

[Mjolnir]

It's suffered HUGE delays recently. It could be a combination, but Guerra is an old pro and never had problems on Scalped that I recall.

Well of course his creator owned books suffer delays. The big check and contract at Marvel demands Star Wars, Doctor Strange, Mighty Thor all ship on time and 100% likely Unworthy Thor will as well barring something from Coipel's part in it. If Aaron can't turn scripts in for his creator owned stuff and other writers as well on time like their main books, why bother until you have time in your schedule? Issue 1 came out in November and we're still waiting for the last issue of the first arc to come out (issue 5).

Ah! That's where I know that name from. I loved the art on Scalped so another reason for me to pick this up.

I'd ahve to check, but I don't think a single issue of the Homecoming arc came out monthly.

[Fuzzy Barbarian]

Wow, Shutter. I've never seen a solicitation that tells trade-waiters that it'll be a long time before an arc is collected like that. Jeez...

Definitely:
MOONSHINE #1 - Sounds interesting and I like what I've read of Azzarello's Wonder Woman.
CANNIBAL #1 - The cannibals thing just seems like a slight twist on zombies. But Buccellato is a good writer, especialyl when he gets to do darker stuff. I'll give it a go.
THE BLACK MONDAY MURDERS #3 - Giving it an arc, because it's Hickman
DESCENDER #16
KILL OR BE KILLED #3 - Brubaker has earned an arc
OUTCAST BY KIRKMAN & AZACETA #22
SNOTGIRL #4 - First issue was weird but enjoyable, despite a really hard-to-like protagonist.
ALEX + ADA: THE COMPLETE COLLECTION DELUXE EDITION HC - YEEESSSSS!!!!!!!! Finally!!! A ahrdcover!!! I am buying the **** out of this!

Maybe:
GREEN VALLEY #1 (OF 9) - Heard great things about American Alien and I liked Chronicle. But that premise is just sounds so generic and vague. Also, Green Valley is a street close to me so that might be an immersion breaker :P
ROMULUS #1 - Sounds pretty generic as well. But someone I know really likes Postal, and the cover's pretty...
ECLIPSE #2
HORIZON #4
MECHANISM #4

You might be right. When your pull list is as impeccable as mine you tend not to notice a single book getting delayed.
