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.

Tom P: What a great week in comics for me! Let's start with Dark Horse. We've got the time-travelling Ei8ht #2 and Mike Mignola's new take on 'the Monster' in Frankenstein Underground #1 - any new book from the Hellboy horror maestro is always a highlight for me. DC is up next with the trendy Batgirl #40 which I've been enjoying; I really dig the new direction and the same could be said of Superman #39 which boasts the killer creative talents of Geoff Johns, John Romita and Klaus Janson. Over at Image I've got C.O.W.L. #9 waiting for me. I picked the trade up on Matt C's recommendation and I've been hooked ever since. It's pure class. Red One #1 will be a must buy as I'm quite a fan of Xavier Dorison a star of the French comics scene whose writing I've followed since I picked up his Long John Silver series via Cinebook. The premise had me hooked, what happens when America's greatest hero... is a Russian spy? SOLD. Top of the pile this week will undoubtedly be Chrononauts #1 from Sean Murphy and Mark Miller. Now that's a team up! When Miller gets it right few can touch him and Murphy can't draw a bad panel as far as I'm concerned. I can't wait to see the results.
