New comics are due to hit the shelves on Wednesday so here’s a look ahead at some of the books we’ll be picking up this week. To see what’s available at Paradox this week, click here.

Sticking with Marvel for one more spin of the dice I will be looking at Nova #7 to see what personal stamp Zeb Wells begins to put on the book, #6 being a subtle handover from the work of Jeff Loeb that felt as if Wells was honouring what had come before, rather than galloping off with his own story. Elsewhere around the shelves I'll be putting a copy of Green Lantern: New Guardians #23 into my basket as the partnership of Justin Jordan and Brad Walker is shaping up to be a fantastic creative collaboration. I'm excited for more of Stjepan Sejic's lush visuals and Matt Hawkins' world building over on Top Cow's Aphrodite IX #4, and following the continued decimation of her allies' family - unknown to her that it's been by her hand - I'm hoping that Aphrodite discovers that she's being used as a puppet of death! That's one title that really is nailing the dramatic tension! And speaking of tension, the town of Wausau, Wisconsin is turning into a pressure cooker, pumped to the brim with nervous energy as the mysterious phenomena of 'Revivers' continues to go unexplained. If you haven't been reading Tim Seeley and Mike Norton's rural dramatic horror book, Revival, it really is worth picking up in collected form and then jump in with #13 this week where there's certain to be more family-based stressed, small-town politics and reincarnated gore.
