Batgirl Vol 4 Annual #3 (DC Comics)
Batgirl clashes with Spyral's Helena Bertinelli in her latest mission, as well as another mysterious agent who refuses to show his face. Grayson meets Batgirl in a classic cat and mouse game. Dick and Barbara are my OTP so I'm definitely looking forward to them being reunited.

Superman #42 (DC Comics)
So we know Superman has lost most of his powers and everybody knows his secret identity as Clark Kent. And it all started when Lois Lane discovered The Truth! Something big is gonna happen as the series hits its 50th milestone.

Mulan Revelations #2 (Dark Horse Comics)
The first issue of this new series was solid, so I'm ready for more. It's a really cool mix of historical meets futuristic and the mystic, plus science fiction. Now that Mulan's ancestral power has been awakened, she must fight against the dark forces in her country.

Southern Bastards #10 (Image Comics)
For the one print issue, a special charity variant will be sold. All of the profits will be donated to help fund the funerals and provide other assistance to the families of the victims of the Charleston, South Carolina shooting. You get an awesome comic plus you'll be making a difference, it's a win-win situation.

The X-Files Annual 2015 (IDW Publishing)
Before The X-Files Revival, check out the paranormal investigations by Fox Mulder and Dana Scully in comic book form. When Mulder investigates the disappearance of innocent boy, the case takes him to the scariest place on earth...a high school reunion.
