We have a good one, folks, as we have a heavy slate of releases filled with multiple graphic novels, collections, and box sets to shock and awe you (and your bank accounts). Let’s get to all that in the latest edition of The Pull.

Comic of the Week: The Power Fantasy #11

It’s been a bit since we checked in with Kieron Gillen and Caspar Wijngaard’s Image Comics series that was one of my Comics of 2024, and you know what? It’s still great! This look at the superpowers that be and their chaotic, combative, and dramatic lives and existences is one of the strongest and consistent titles at a high time for Image as a publisher. It’s a good time to jump in, as this is the arc closer and the second trade’s hitting next month, so if you’re new to the show, I highly recommend it. It has the goods.

Trade/Graphic Novel of the Week: The Avengers in The Veracity Trap HC

I’ll be honest: I have no idea what this is about.

Could I look it up? Sure.

Am I going to? No.

Why’s that? Because it’s drawn by Michael Cho, and that’s all that matters. If the only thing that comes from Abrams ComicArts’ collaboration with Marvel — aka MarvelArts — is that we occasionally get graphic novels and novellas with art by elite talents like Cho as well as writing and design by someone like Chip Kidd, then it’s well worth whatever was necessary to bring it to life. I cannot wait to bask in the glory of Cho’s art.
