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.

Andy H: Marvel's 'Generations' is one of those concepts that you can pick and choose from. Last week the Wolverine & All-New Wolverine was a treat, harking back to the Wolverine I knew and loved. The Hulk issue I could take or leave. This week we get the 'new' Thor and the Unworthy Thor in a time travel caper. Our present Thor travels back in time to ancient Egypt for an escapade with a younger Odinson. Throw in a bad guy in the form of Apocalypse and we should see the sparks fly. Jason Aaron writes this one-shot and is still the man to trust in the Thor hotseat so this should be an entertaining treat. James Robinson has kept us waiting but Cable #4 finally introduces Conquest, the villain that Nathan has been chasing through time. I'm looking forward to a decent payoff for my patience. A firm PCG favourite, Kyle Higgins, turns his hand to a 'possible future' for Dick Grayson in Nightwing: The New Order #1. Superpowers have been outlawed and Dick has led the way but when his family is targeted he must turn to the heroes he has hunted for help. On a lighter note, Scooby-Doo Team-Up #29 features our canine hero joining forces with none other than Top Cat. That's a cracking collision of childhood cartoons to keep the big kid in me very happy. Top of my pile this week is Shirtless Bear-Fighter! #3. This series has been a chuckle-fest for me. It's silly and off the wall but so much fun I wouldn't miss it for the world.
