An all-new Batman series by the DETECTIVE COMICS creative team of Paul Dini and Dustin Nguyen! As a new Batman rises on the streets of Gotham City, the heroes, villains and citizens take notice.

MARVEL COMICS
CAPTAIN AMERICA #600
Written by Ed Brubaker, Roger Stern and Mark Waid; Pencils by Dale Eaglesham and Butch Guice; Cover by Steve Epting.
THE STORY: Where were you when Captain America died? It's the anniversary of the day Steve Rogers was killed, a day of reflection and mourning in the Marvel U...a time to look back on the things Steve did and what he stood for... or is this issue actually the beginning of the most wicked plot twist since issue 25? Yeah, actually it's both. Plus, contributions from Cap creators past and present, including a very special essay by Joe Simon, a classic story from Cap's Golden Age, a full gallery of 600 Cap covers, and more anniversary shenanigans than you can shake a shield at!.
INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #14
Written by Matt Fraction; Pencils and Cover by Salvador Larroca.
THE STORY: It's the perfect jumping-on point, as the second half of WORLD'S MOST WANTED begins here! Don't miss out on this critically acclaimed blockbuster! Tony's failing health makes the Iron Man too complicated to pilot. Hill hunts the world's most un-huntable man. Pepper defies Norman Osborn and H.A.M.M.E.R. itself. And all of Iron Man's rogues' gallery is after him and the billion-dollar bounty on his head...starting with the murderous Madame Masque! But believe it or not, there'll soon come a time when everyone looks back on these as the good old days.
DARK HORSE COMICS
ALIENS #1 (OF 4)
Written by John Arcudi; Pencils by Zach Howard.
THE STORY: A group of wildcat planetary prospectors plant their flag on a distant new world, rich in land, resources ... and mystery. Within this seemingly uninhabited planet lies the greatest archaeological discovery in history, an ancient, abandoned complex of impossible proportions carved deep within the living rock, a mind-numbing labyrinth of passages, ramps, bridges, and galleries that seems to extend limitlessly. But as the exploration of the leviathan dead city proceeds deeper and deeper, the members of the team slowly begin to lose their grip on reality. But madness gives way to fear as the explorers begin to disappear one by one. Something else lives within the necropolis, a faceless horror as deadly and merciless as space itself, a lethal terror that has waited centuries to awake ... and destroy.
At long last, Dark Horse Comics heralds the return of the heavyweight champion of modern science-fiction/horror, Aliens!
Plus much, much more! So let's get to the list, shall we?
