Diamond Comic Distributors has revealed the contents of their October 2014 issue of Previews. The issue's front cover features the upcoming Robin Rises Alpha, while the back is graced by a new Marvel Select Cable action figure.
Robin Rises Alpha is the conclusion to the saga of Damien Wayne's death and, possibly, rebirth. Written by Peter J. Tomasi, with art by Andy Kubert, the issue sees Batman traveling to Apokalips to retrieve and restore Damien's body to life.
An iconic figure of 1990s comics, Cable, the ultimate mutant soldier from the future, joins the Marvel Select line in full '90s style, with pouches, shoulder pads, metallic arm, and gun in tow.
