Comic of the Month Club is an awesome monthly subscription service for comic book fans. Subscribers receive 6-8 personally curated comics every month. They carry Marvel & DC, but they also have some great independent publishers like Vertigo, Image, Chaos! and more. They have titles all the way from the Silver Age to the Modern Age; you never know what you’re going to get!
The books are not only bagged and boarded, they are also in bubble wrap to prevent any damage while within the box.
Here are the contents of my box!
The curators from Comic of the Month Club included a letter to keep everyone informed about what will be coming in the very near future. It looks like possible themes could be coming. I think it would be great to receive a different theme each month.
Let’s take a look at the individual books. It appears if there was a theme, it would be comics of the 1990s (most of them anyway).
West Coast Avengers #83 – Marvel Comics. The incredible Herb Trimpe did the artwork for this comic book.
Spawn #27 – Image Comics. The comic created by the incomparable Todd McFarlane has art by the man himself plus Greg Capullo! I did a review on this book and you can read it here.
G.I. Joe – Hasbro. I don’t think this comic book is from the 90s. It appears the legendary Larry Hama had a hand in this book. Hama has done a ton of work on G.I. Joe in the world of comic books.
Eternal Warrior #14 – Valiant Comics. The cover alone looks like the reader could be in for a wild ride with Bloodshot on the cover.
Daredevil #337 – Marvel Comics. The conclusion of the “Humanity’s Fathom” story line.
The Mighty Thor #453 – Marvel Comics. It just so happens that I’m typing up this review as I am watching the movie Thor. One of my favorite films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Superman in Action Comics #702 – DC Comics. During the DC New 52 run, all of the comics started over at #1. Action Comics was getting up there in the number count as you can see this one is #702. DC has since gone into their Rebirth and Action Comics has picked up from where they left off. It won’t be long until they hit the 1000 mark.
Green Lantern #65 – DC Comics. Kyle Raynor is the Green Lantern in this comic book. It looks like Supergirl is a guest as well.
Justice League America #91 – DC Comics. This was a sad story for the League and you can read my review here.
Comic of the Month Club is a ton of fun! Random comics sent to your door is definitely a good thing. I hope themes do become a thing for the service. Like I mentioned above, I hope there will be an option to receive a random theme each month.
