Moon Knight #1 — Writer: Jeff Lemire;  Art: Greg Smallwood;  Colors: Jordie Bellaire The Unbelievable Gwenpool #1 — Writer: Christopher Hastings;  Art: Gurihiru with Danilo Beyruth Spider-Gwen #7 — Writer: Jason Latour;  Art: Bengal;  Colors: Rico Renzi Only two Marvel debuts this week — Moon Knight starts in a One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest setting, with its title character in an insane asylum, trying to decide whether the whole Konshu/superpowers thing is real, or just a symptom of his madness; considering that multiple personality disorder’s been hard-wired into his origin from the beginning, it’s probably a little of both. … Continue reading

The Astonishing Ant-Man #1 — Writer: Nick Spencer;  Art: Ramon Rosanas;  Colors: Jordan Boyd The Uncanny Inhumans #1 — Writer: Charles Soule;  Pencils: Jay Leisten;  Inks: Steve McNiven;  Colors: Sunny Cho Karnak #1 — Writer: Warren Ellis;  Art: Gerardo Zaffino;  Colors: Dan Brown Marvel continues its reboot rollout with three new titles this week:  Ant-Man has some imaginative ideas from Spencer — like a Silicon Valley entrepreneur who’s created an Uber-like app for supervillains: need a hero assassinated?
