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. Click here for a list of the latest releases.

Jo S: In an effort to tame my growing list, I've had to take the shears to this week’s selection, but pruning it down turned out to be more of a job than expected. No new green leaves for me this week - a set of what may turn out to be could-have-beens were trimmed away, leaving growing room for series which are strong and sturdy for me already. Mighty immovable oaks for me this Wednesday are Hulk #8: I wasn't so keen on #7 as the previous story as the art lacked some of the wit and detail seen before but the writing is still great; Godshaper #4, funky, clever and inventive; and the engrossing Grass Kings #5: each episode pulls me deeper into the world of the Grass Kingdom and this is refusing to loosen its grip on me. The Marvel garden is blooming lushly currently - this week I'll also be returning to the quirkiness of Weapon X, the emotional grab of Jean Grey and the crackling comic pace of Secret Warriors. Every garden needs a little rain, so I'll add Black Cloud #4 - this is my Tenuous Title of the Week but I'm giving it that one last go. Finally the squirming, fly-blown compost heap that is Regression #3, a horror whodunnit with gruesome graphics; the last issue finished with plenty of questions and even more creepy crawlies - well, a garden’s not a garden without a few bugs.
