A Stable Fall

November's solicitations weren't all that different from September or October's. At least not in terms of how many things there were I was interested in. Not that much difference in what those things were, either, but let's run through 'em.

What's new? As alluded to above, not much. There's a one-shot for Grit N Gears, following on the heels of the mini-series and focused on a character that apparently is in the mini-series, but I'm not sure I've seen them yet. A "maybe", at best.

Other than that, Ryan Lindsay (who wrote the min-series Everfrost I reviewed back in '21) and Louie Joyce have a one-shot GN out through Comixtribe called A Fistful of Pain. Which is about two sisters who have always quarreled over their family's pet and are either going to fight one last time, or team up to beat a bunch of other people up. Or maybe one then the other if they're feeling ambitious.

Also, I want to take a moment to alert everyone of disturbing news: Marvel is releasing another Sentry mini-series. Granted it's about random people gaining some of his powers and memories, so a bit of the old Captain Universe concept, but this is still a dire portent that we may be cursed with that character's presence once more.

What's ending? Captain Marvel: Dark Tempest is wrapping this month, and so is Marco Fontanili's Space Outlaws.

And all the rest? Moon Knight 29, Uncanny Spider-Man 3, Ms. Marvel: The New Mutant 4, two issues of Fantastic Four. On the latter, I half-expected it to be canceled at 12 issues, but it's at least going to 14. Probably not much further, since they're ready for the Baxter Building to reappear after Richards shunted it forward in time.

With Ms. Marvel, which I assume is the book they kept soliciting with absolutely everything listed as "CLASSIFIED", we'll have to see. The first issue comes out today, and I think trying to rebrand her as a mutant is dumb, but so was killing her off in a Spider-Man comic. Marvel does dumb shit all the time.

The more solicits I see for that Fire and Ice mini-series, the more sure I am it's getting passed by, and the solicit for issue 2 of Slow Burn didn't exactly light me on fire. However, there is still the third issues of Coda, Lone, and Midnight Western Theatre: Witch Trial to look forward to. Seven Seas Entertainment is releasing the fourth volume of No Longer Allowed in Another World, which I am eagerly awaiting. Viz is releasing volume 12 of Zom 100, which I might get around to reading one of these days.
