1. Avengers Vs X-Men: One month into this epic cross over event which pits Marvels most iconic teams, the X-Men and Avengers, against each other and all I can say is wow!

3. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #10: If you want a comic that is going to blow your mind with awesome, check out TMNT. Issue 9 was amazing, and saw one of comics greatest villains return to print. I won't spoil it for you but he's a ninja master, and his name starts with S. The best part? Issue 10 looks to be even better! We have all the back issues you need to get caught up on this the second story arc of IDW's new ongoing TMNT comic so there is no excuse to miss it!

We just added a whole section of monster T's that rock, as well as a new kids T-Shirt section. If you haven't noticed the warming weather, I would suggest getting outside! Perhaps a nice walk to Albuquerque's number one comic shop is in order?

1. Earth 2: This New 52 series is part of the second wave of books that DC will be releasing at the beginning of May. It features Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and The Flash from a parallel universe to the one we know so well. From what I’ve learned so far their secret identities will be different from the usual suspects and will more so resemble the heroes that form the JSA. Keep your eye out for this book. The first wave was to test the waters and set the groundwork for these new books. Let’s see how well DC will ride this wave
