JINX: THE ESSENTIAL COLLECTION GN-HC
Written by BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS
Penciled by BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS
Cover by BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS
FIRST TIME IN HARDCOVER! POWERS co-creator Brian Michael Bendis brings back his Eisner Award-winning crime-comic classic in an all-new collection! A female bounty hunter, a handsome small-time grifter and his smarmy partner search for a hidden treasure that takes them on a winding trail through the seedy underbelly of Cleveland — a treasure that’s a ticket out of the city and out of “the life.” The treasure hunt propels this character-driven film noir loosely based on the western classic The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. If you’re a fan of Bendis’ work on POWERS, AVENGERS, ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN or SCARLET, then this book is a must-have for your comics library. Collecting JINX #1-4.

Cover by DON HECK
Avengers Assemble! Back in another beautifully restored MARVEL MASTERWORKS edition, Cap, Iron Man, Thor and the gang present another set of trendsetting adventures! Starting off with an intriguing Harlan Ellison adaptation, there’s no time wasted upping the ante when the mutant-hunting Sentinels return from the heart of the sun. Then, the order changeth! After six years as writer of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, Roy Thomas passes the torch to the new scribe who would take the super-team to even loftier heights. Enter: Steve Englehart! Without skipping a beat, he descends into the time-lost Savage Land and brings back the Black Panther — all the while devising the machinations of the Grim Reaper and the Space Phantom that cruelly twist the Vision to their will. The tension peaks when Hawkeye quits, and the mutant menace Magneto takes out not just the Avengers, but the X-Men, too. Toss in Daredevil and the Black Widow, and what we’ve got here is an epic in the Marvel manner. So reserve that copy today, True Believer! Collecting THE AVENGERS #101-111 and DAREDEVIL #99.

THE FANTASTIC FOUR VOL. 6 TPB
Written by STAN LEE
Penciled by JACK KIRBY
Cover by JACK KIRBY
Continuing their greatest-hits streak on the “The World’s Greatest Comic Magazine,” Stan Lee and Jack Kirby weren’t content just to introduce the Inhumans, Galactus and the Silver Surfer. No, a three-peat was thinking far, far smaller than the most amazing team in comics’ history imagined. Their followup was a heart-wrenching tale of tragedy and heroism titled “This Man! This Monster!” If this story doesn’t make you come to love Benjamin J. Grimm, then yer heart must be made of orange rock, fella! Because the greatest Fantastic Four story wasn’t enough, Stan and Jack had yet another unmatched milestone waiting in the wings: the debut of the world’s first African super hero, the Black Panther, and his kingdom of Wakanda! And that’s just the start! In the pages of this MARVEL MASTERWORKS, you’ll also encounter the vile Klaw; see the Silver Surfer go toe-to-toe with the Thing; watch the Human Torch face his namesake, the original 1940s Torch; and wonder in shock and awe at how the Fantastic Four can hope to overcome Dr. Doom when he’s wrested the Power Cosmic from the Surfer himself! We can’t guarantee you won’t wear out the pages of this volume reading stories this great again and again! You may want to order two just in case! Collecting FANTASTIC FOUR #51-60 and ANNUAL #4.

THE MARVEL ART OF MIKE DEODATO HC
Written by JOHN RHETT THOMAS
Penciled by MIKE DEODATO
Cover by MIKE DEODATO
Mike Deodato made a big splash during the mid-’90s with a style combining a solid grasp of anatomy; layouts bristling with dynamic energy; and a brash, trendsetting dynamism that set him apart as a visionary Marvel could build around for the rest
of the decade and beyond. With his startling work on Warren Ellis’ THOR setting the pace, Deodato’s later triumphs on
INCREDIBLE HULK, AMAZING SPIDER-MAN and THUNDERBOLTS set the stage for his jaw-dropping visuals on DARK
AVENGERS — where the stark, moody character of his work was a perfect match for writer Brian Michael Bendis’
deconstruction of Norman Osborn’s sanity. THE MARVEL ART OF MIKE DEODATO celebrates the vibrant and vital career of one of comics’ elite artists with a bounty of interior and cover art, character sketches, and unpublished work. Featuring commentary from many of Mike’s industry peers as well as the artist himself!

It’s a final chance at redemption and a second life — and an opportunity to prove, once and for all, that they’re worthy of the name Avengers. Plus: Ares defeated Chaos King once before, but now the God of War is dead and armed only with his love for his lost son. How can he stop the living oblivion Chaos King has become, even with the help of Zeus and Hera? And at what price comes defeat?

This powerhouse has his sites set on helping Chaos King destroy all reality, so what hope does a simple Thunder God have of stopping him?
