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.

Stewart R: It's a new Image #1 and you always have to figure that the Millar hit rate of 50% for 'must-read' series (figure courtesy of Stewart R's mind and opinion) means that it'd be a foolish decision to leave MPH #1 on the shelves. The lesser known #1 out this week which has me a little more intrigued is Last Broadcast #1 from Archaia. The blurb passes this off as a fantasy occult mystery where the urban exploration of those areas deemed 'off limits' or marked 'no trespassing' will lead to a mystery dating back to the 1930s and no doubts dark and thrilling times. The art style has a manga edge to it yet the artist, Gabriel Iumazark, hails from Brazil and I'm interested to see how effectively his striking line style captures this unfolding story. From a number two perspective I'm heading Marvel's way for Amazing Spider-Man #2 to see how Dan Slott settles back into the task of writing Peter and ensuring that his exploits remain gripping, whilst wild horses couldn't drag me away from my copy of Elektra #2 this week. I've actually found myself thinking back to that great debut by Blackman and Del Mundo - the latter's distinct visuals particularly - and I'm very excited to see what transpires once Elektra has landed on Monster Island!
