THANK YOU for participating in April 2015’s MYSTERY BOX! It was another record breaking month for us, and we were pretty excited about the books in this month’s shipment. We also threw in a bonus book from Free Comic Book Day, which was on May 2nd. Exactly how did this month’s comics make the cut? Read below and find out!
Rebels #1 by Brian Wood & Andrea Mutti – Dark Horse Comics
Brian Wood takes us back to the year 1775 with Rebels, a look at the American Revolution through the eyes of Seth and Mercy Abbott. Wood is best known for his storytelling on books like DMZ, Northlanders, and The Massive. Expect his writing to draw parallels between the worlds of 1775 and 2015.
Bloodshot Reborn #1 by Jeff Lemire & Mico Suyan: Suyan Variant – Valiant Comics
This is the first time we’ve included a Valiant book in ComicBoxer, and we’ve included this one for good reason! Valiant is making huge headlines these days – their movie deal with Sony has paved the way for at least 5 films in the Valiant Universe, Bloodshot first among them. This comic is a great place to start for those unfamiliar with the character. Oh, and say hello to “Bloodsquirt” for us – a character drawn in the book by writer Jeff Lemire over Mico Suyan’s already fantastic art!
Kaijumax #1 by Zander Cannon: Bryan Lee O’Malley Variant – Oni Press
Kaijumax is awesome. Don’t let the cute cover by Scott Pilgrim artist Bryan Lee O’Malley fool you – this is Orange is the New Black or Oz meets Pacific Rim. What happens when giant monsters get captured? They get sent to Kaijumax! But what if they were just trying to take care of their Kaiju family? Are some Kaiju just misunderstood? This variant has been selling for as much as $12 online!
Lady Mechanika: Tablet of Destinies #1 by Joe Benitez & M.M. Chen – Benitez Productions
Lady Mechanika, Joe Benitez’ steampunk heroine, makes the jump from Aspen Comics to Joe’s own publishing company. This character has immense popularity, and we leaped at the chance to include the first issue of her new series in this month’s box.
Avengers #44 by Jonathan Hickman & Stefano Caselli/Kev Walker – Marvel Comics
Secret Wars is upon us and entire universes are coming to an end. A climactic battle between Captain America and Iron Man end the current Marvel Universe as we know it. This super-sized 56 page finale is action-packed, and we’re calling it the last comic featuring both the Ultimate Universe and the 616 universe. It’s also the perfect lead-in to Secret Wars #1 coming in May.

Thanks for being a part of ComicBoxer. May’s mystery box is one that you DO NOT want to miss!
THANK YOU for participating in March 2015’s MYSTERY BOX! We’re sending out a record number of boxes this month – our club keeps growing and growing! Exactly how did this month’s comics make the cut? Read below and find out!
Princess Leia #1 by Mark Waid & Terry Dodson: Action Figure Variant – Marvel Comics
Our third Marvel Star Wars book in as many months, and this time we’ve included the awesome Action Figure Variant, which is sold out and already commanding prices of up to $10 in the aftermarket! This Princess Leia series is set to be 5 issues long, and is the perfect companion for the ongoing Star Wars and Darth Vader books.
Descender #1 by Jeff Lemire & Dustin Nguyen – Image Comics
Amazing writing from Jeff Lemire and beautiful water-colored panels from Dustin Nguyen make this book a true work of art! If the first issue is any indication, this is a series that we will be rushing to read each month it’s released. Sony has already optioned the movie rights to this story, which has pushed this issue past the $10 mark online!
Spider-Woman #5 by Dennis Hopeless & Javier Rodriguez – Marvel Comics
This landmark issue of Spider-Woman gives Jessica Drew an all-new hip and updated costume, which was something Marvel needed to do after the controversy of the variant cover from issue #1. The new outfit is already a hit with readers – this issue is sold out and headed for reprints!
Chrononauts #1 by Mark Millar & Sean Murphy – Image Comics
Who doesn’t love a good time travel story, especially when written by one of comics’ most prolific creators Mark Millar! Joined by superstar artist Sean Murphy, this tells the story of the first trip through time, and like the first landing on the moon, this trip will be televised! The announcement of a movie deal for this book with Universal, plus an “optical illusion” on the cover, has pushed this sold-out Sean Murphy cover as high as – wait for it – $30! WOW!
Hellbreak #1 by Cullen Bunn & Brian Churilla – Oni Press
Cullen Bunn, writer for books such as Magneto, Deadpool Kills, and Sixth Gun takes us to Hell and back in this offering from Oni Press. Project Keberos has been developed to break into hell, rescue lost souls, and then break back out. The book promises “thousands of hells” and we can’t wait to see how Brian Churilla visualizes that.
Convergence #0 by Dan Jurgens & Ethan Van Sciver – DC Comics
The end of “The New 52” all begins here. Dan Jurgens gives us this Superman-centric introduction to the event where DC’s universes will collide, giving us a look back at the heroes and villains of DC’s past, present, and future. Convergence will run through the months of April and May before the publisher begins a mini-relaunch in June!
