By: Scott Lobdell (writer), Brett Booth (penciller), Norm Rapmund (inker), Andrew Dalhouse (colorist) The Story: Cheer up, Wonder Girl. For some, it’s traditional to get beat up on New Year’s.

By: Nathan Edmondson (writer), Scott Clark (penciller), Dave Beaty (inker), Andrew Dalhouse (colorist) The Story: Who knew that arrows-versus-guns isn’t a completely one-sided draw?

By: Scott Lobdell (writer), Brett Booth (penciller), Norm Rapmund (inker), Andrew Dalhouse (colorist) The Story: Presenting the fabulous entrance of Bunker!

By: Nathan Edmondson (writer), Cafu (penciller), Jason Gorder (inker), Andrew Dalhouse (colorist) The Story: Seriously, Cole—didn’t anyone tell you, “Bro’s before ho’s?” The Review: Ah, the brother-versus-brother showdown.

By: Scott Lobdell (writer), Brett Booth (penciller), Norm Rapmund (inker), Andrew Dalhouse (colorist) The Story: All that talk about sewer mutants and mole people are just rumors, I swear!
