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: I’m all about endings and beginnings this week with my pull-list featuring four new starts and a brace of final issues. Lady Mechanika: The Clockwork Assassin ends with issue #3 this week: I do like Benitez’ homage to steampunk empress Kate Lambert and this story has not been lost to the style. Kurt Sutter’s Sisters Of Sorrow picked up in issues #2 and #3, after a slightly slow start, and a Mother Superior of a finale seems to be on the cards for this tale nuns with big guns. Taking a couple of risks on issues #1 this week: I don’t know much about Eternity #1 but Matt Kindt’s writing was what got me into comics in the first place so I’ll definitely give it a go. The big event in my real world this week is the Thor: Ragnarok premiere, so it seems a good time to snag a Thor issue #1 and Thor: Where Walk The Frost Giants appears in timely fashion. The rank outsider this week is Ruff And Reddy Show #1: sitting squarely in the ‘Dunno, could be rubbish, might be genius’ rack, this looks like it might be a giggle, although talking animals generally have to work hard to keep my attention. Finally, I’m dropping a few quid in the ‘Save DC Metal’ collecting tin by taking a zero-commitment look at the one-and-done Batman: The Merciless. Batman: The Drowned kept my boat afloat last week, I enjoyed the entertaining Murder Machine before that, and the Wonder Woman logo on the cover sealed the deal.
