Comic Book Previews for November 4th, 2009

Had enough candy? Hopefully by the time this Wednesday rolls around you'll have recovered from the sugar high and the inevitable sugar crash in time to pick up and read this week's new comics! Marvel has several solo features and limited series this week, starting with one of the most anticipated, Psylocke #1! This popular X-Man gets her own series this week, as she travels to put the remains of her former body to rest, but of course, it's not that easy! Also, in the spirit of revival and rejuvenation, a new seven-issue series starring none other than Deathlok premieres with Deathlok #1. What will be the tale of one of Marvel's most popular cyborgs? The most powerful mystic in Marvel returns this week when Doctor Voodoo: Avenger of the Supernatural #2 arrives in stores. Follow the ever-developing adventures of Marvel's new Sorcerer Supreme! Black Widow also gets in on the solo action act this week with Black Widow: Deadly Origin #1, a story that brings Natalia Romanova's past into a collision course with her present! Speaking of the past, the saga of Steve Rogers' return continues as well in the pages of Captain America: Reborn #4. Amazing Spider-Man #610 brings about the conclusion to the "Who was Ben Reilly" storyline, setting up an interesting team-up in next week's issue!
