New Comic Book Day is always a reason to visit Green Brain Comics, and this upcoming Wednesday, May 7th, is bringing some seriously exciting new reads! From monster-noir mysteries to eco-warrior revivals to cosmic superhero epics, here’s a spotlight on what’s fresh and fantastic this week:
FREE PLANET #1
Image Comics – (W) Aubrey Sitterson (A) Jed Dougherty
The first truly independent planet in human history has just won its freedom. But can the dream of liberty survive when two alien empires have their sights set on its untapped energy source? This radical space-faring debut is as philosophical as it is action-packed.
CAPTAIN PLANET #1
Dynamite – (W) David Pepose (A) Eman Casallos
The 1990s environmental icon returns! The Planeteers are back and they need Captain Planet more than ever as they fight to save Gaia from the new menace of Lucian Plunder. Earth’s fate hangs in the balance—and the power is yours!
LOS MONSTRUOS #1
Dark Horse – (W) James Robinson (A) Jesús Merino
Monsters run the streets in this stylish, noir-flavored detective story. In a 1950s city full of werewolves, vampires, and swamp creatures, gumshoe Perry Cutter is on the case of a missing vampiress. A perfect mix of pulp grit and creature feature.
ABSOLUTE SUPERMAN #7
DC Comics – (W) Jason Aaron (A) Carmine Di Giandomenico
In this bold reimagining of Superman’s origin, Kal-El crashes on Earth as an adult and never becomes Clark Kent. With a sentient suit and a cape made from Kryptonian ash, this powerful issue expands on the mystery of the Lazarus Corporation and the hunt to bring Superman down.
FANTASTIC FOUR FANFARE #1
Marvel – (W) Mark Waid, Alan Davis, Andrew Wheeler (A) Rosanas, Davis, Pichelli
This jam-packed anthology celebrates Marvel’s First Family through a series of standalone stories. Torch vs. Thing prank wars, Mole Man hijinks, and cosmic dangers all collide in this beautifully illustrated debut issue.
STAR WARS #1 (2025)
Marvel – (W) Alex Segura (A) Phil Noto
Set just after Return of the Jedi, this new Star Wars series follows Han, Leia, and Luke as they navigate a galaxy in flux. The Empire may be defeated, but new threats—like pirate factions and power vacuums—are rising fast. A must-read for fans of the Rebellion era.
