Teams: Manly's axing after show-stopping game

The NRL's form player of the year, Tom Trbojevic, is set to make his return for the Sea Eagles after missing round 23 with a facial injury.Last week, Trbojevic was ruled out as a precaution amid conflicting reports the superstar fullback had damaged a pre-existing facial fracture.

Suli has been dropped to reserves, replaced by Brad Parker who slots straight into the centres.

Blackpool vs Doncaster Prediction & Tips

Blackpool vs Doncaster for this League 1 match will be played on 05/05/2021 at 00:00

Bloomfield Road will host a postponed League One clash between Blackpool and Doncaster Rovers. The Seasiders aim to increase their winning run to 3 games, and a convert Doncaster will see them book their place within the playoffs. a person to observe within the home team are Jerry Yates, who scored a brace within the victory over Northampton. Midfielder Ethan Robson, who suffered an injury at the weekend, is unlikely to feature against Doncaster. The Donny, on the opposite hand, aim to create on a 2-1 convert Rochdale. Doncaster regained a much-needed confidence on Matchday 45, but seeing that they need little to play for in Saturday’s clash, we are tempted to place our money on the in-form hosts. All CJ Hamilton, Keshi Anderson, and Matthew Virtue-Thick are sidelined with injuries, while Gary Madine is rated doubtful for the hosts. As for the visiting team, both Brad Halliday and Jon Taylor are injured.

Blackpool vs Doncaster for this League 1 match : 2-1. Visit official website for more update - Betting prediction

Nhan Dinh Wales – Thuy Sy 20h00 Ngay 12/6 Euro 2020-2021

Lịch sử đứng về “xứ sở của những chiếc đồng hồ”

Wales – Thụy Sỹ không có quá nhiều trận đối đầu trực tiếp trong quá khứ. Một phần lý do đến từ việc đây mới chỉ là giải đấu lớn thứ ba của xứ Wales trong lịch sử. Trước đó, đội bóng này mới chỉ dự hai giải đấu là World Cup 1958 và Euro 2016. Một quãng thời gian rất dài mà Wales phải trở thành “khán giả bất đắc dĩ” của các kỳ đại hội lớn của bóng đá châu lục cũng như thế giới.

Trong các trận đối đầu giữa hai đội ở quá khứ, có tới gần một nửa không phải các trận đấu thuộc các giải đấu cúp hoặc vòng loại. Hai đội bóng này chỉ thi đấu giao hữu có vỏn vẹn ba lần ở 47 năm từ 1949 đến 1996. Trong ba trận đấu giao hữu kể trên, Thụy Sỹ chiếm ưu thế với hai chiến thắng và một lần thất bại vào năm 1961.

Phải chờ nửa thế kỷ sau lần chạm trán đầu tiên, hai đội mới có lần đầu giáp mặt tại vòng loại một giải đấu lớn. Khi ấy, Wales – Thụy Sỹ rơi vào chung một bảng đấu vòng loại của Euro 2000. Đất nước xứ sở đồng hồ thế hiện sức mạnh khi thắng đối thủ cả hai lượt trận với tỉ số 2-0.

12 năm sau, họ lại tiếp tục thi đấu cùng nhau trong khuôn khổ bảng G vòng loại Euro 2012. Thụy Sỹ tiếp tục thể hiện sức mạnh trong trận lượt đi với chiến thắng 4-1 trước Wales. Dẫu vậy, trận lượt về tại Swansea đã trở thành định mệnh với đội bóng khi ấy được dẫn dắt bởi HLV lão làng Ottmar Hitzfeld. Hai pha lập công của Aaron Ramsey cùng Gareth Bale không thể giúp xứ Wales đi tiếp nhưng đã khiến Thụy Sỹ lỡ hẹn với vòng play-off của Euro năm ấy.

Trận thắng trước đối thủ cạnh tranh trực tiếp Montenegro ở lượt cuối trở nên vô nghĩa khi đội bóng của chiến lược gia người Đức thua đối thủ đúng 1 điểm sau khi hết vòng loại.

Về thành tích đối đầu, Thụy Sỹ vẫn đang là những người chiếm ưu thế với năm chiến thắng và hai lần thất bại. Những cái tên ở các tuyến của họ cũng là đều hơn so với đội bóng được dẫn dắt bởi HLV Ryan Giggs. Và trên hết, họ muốn trả món nợ cay đắng năm nào.

Mười năm đã qua từ trận đấu đầy tiếc nuối ở Liberty, Thụy Sỹ ắt hẳn đang nuôi hy vọng báo thủ Wales ở một sân chơi lớn hơn, vĩ đại hơn mà cả hai đội bóng chưa từng đối đầu trong quá khứ – vòng chung kết Euro.

“Xứ Bales” đối đầu với đội hình có chiều sâu

Khi Wales lọt vào bán kết Euro 2016, người ta gọi vui đội bóng này với cái tên “xứ Bales”. Cầu thủ tấn công sinh năm 1989 là nguồn sống, người kết thúc những tình huống một cách hoàn hảo nhất cũng như là chỗ dựa tinh thần cho toàn đội lúc khó khăn. Ở tuổi 31, Gareth Bale giờ sẽ là người đeo băng thủ quân của đội bóng sau khi lão tướng Ashley Williams giải nghệ. Dù phong độ không còn ở đỉnh cao như cách đây năm mùa bóng, tiền đạo đang thuộc biên chế Real Madrid vẫn sẽ là niềm hy vọng lớn nhất của các cổ động viên nơi quê nhà vào một kỳ tích đất Pháp sẽ lặp lại ở Euro 2020 tới đây.

Ở hành lang đối diện, Bale sẽ có người sẵn sàng cùng anh tạo ra những pha phản công khi cần. Tốc độ là điểm mạnh nhất của Daniel James – cầu thủ đang dần tìm lại mình ở giữa mùa giải này trong màu áo Manchester United. Chàng trai sinh năm 1997 cùng kỹ thuật đến từ Harry Wilson được kỳ vọng sẽ là nguồn cung cấp bóng tốt cho Hal Robson-Kanu. Cũng không thể không kể đến Aaron Ramsey, một cầu thủ luôn mang lại những điểm khác biệt nhờ khả năng di chuyển của mình.

Vị trí hai hậu vệ biên có lẽ sẽ không có sự thay đổi lớn nào. Ben Davies cùng Chris Gunter vẫn đang là hai cầu thủ tốt nhất mà Ryan Giggs có lúc này. Phía bên trong, Ethan Ampadu hy vọng sẽ thay thế được người đàn anh Ashley Williams để án ngữ trước mặt Wayne Hennessy.

Trái với sự già nua của Wales, Thụy Sỹ đang sở hữu quá nhiều những ngôi sao trẻ vào lúc này. Kevin Mbabu cùng Manuel Akanji cũng như Nico Elvedi là những cái tên đang thi đấu ổn tại Bundesliga sẽ mang lại sự an tâm cho HLV Vladimir Petkovic. Sẽ có chút lấn cấn ở biên trái khi Ricardo Rodriguez – cầu thủ đã xuống phong độ từ mùa giải trước vẫn đang chưa tìm được người kế nhiệm vị trí này.

Trái ngược với hàng thủ, hàng tiền vệ của Thụy Sỹ là tập hợp của những cái tên đầy kinh nghiệm. Đội trưởng Granit Xhaka, tiền vệ tấn công Xherdan Shaqiri cũng như cầu thủ đánh chặn Remo Freuler sẽ được hy vọng là những cầu thủ thi đấu ở trung tâm đội bóng.

Hai cầu thủ kỳ cựu Haris Seferovic cùng Admir Mehmedi sẽ được sự giúp sức tới từ người đàn em Breel Embolo – cầu thủ đang dần thể hiện được mình tại Borussia Monchengladbach. Tốc độ cùng sự càn lướt sẽ mang đến nhiều phương án tấn công hơn cho đội bóng HLV Petkovic thay vì phải phụ thuộc vào những cú đá tầm xa hay rót bóng bổng cho bộ đôi tiền đạo mục tiêu.

Một đội hình có chiều sâu của Thụy Sỹ đối đầu với một xứ Wales đang trong giai đoạn chuyển giao thế hệ. Trận đấu Wales – Thụy Sỹ sẽ là một thước đo ban đầu cho những tham vọng của cả hai ở giai đoạn sau của giải đấu. Một bảng A vô cùng cân bằng đang chờ đón chúng ta ở phía trước.

Đội hình ra sân dự kiến giữa Wales – Thụy Sỹ

Wales: Ward, Ampadu, Lawrence, Mepham, Rodon, Norrington, Roberts, Morrell, James, Bale, Wilson

Thụy Sỹ: Sommer, Akanji, Elvedi, Rodríguez, Xhaka, Fernandes, Freuler, Zuber, Shaqiri, Embolo, Seferovic

Tỉ lệ kèo nhà cái Wales – Thụy Sỹ

Các chuyên gia bóng đá tại nhà cái Ku Bet đưa ra những dự đoán kèo trong trận này như sau:

Wales ăn: Đặt 5 ăn 12

Thụy Sỹ ăn: Đặt 4 ăn 5

Tỉ số hòa: Đặt 1 ăn 2

Kèo trên 2.5: Đặt 1 ăn 2.35

Kèo dưới 2.5: Đặt 1 ăn 1.52

Dự đoán tỷ số 0 – 1

A guide to the 18 counties and why you should/shouldn’t support each one (version 2.0)

Hello! It’s been a couple of years since I did this original guide, so I thought it was time for an updated version as after all, a lot has happened since then.

All the confirmed overseas players I’ve found have been included, the most significant Kolpaks (not all though, because there are many), and the most recent England/Ireland/Scotland players as well…and then some just to look out for.

Without further ado then, here is a relatively comprehensive guide to choosing your county for the year ahead…

Derbyshire

Overseas & Kolpak: Logan van Beek, Kane Richardson (T20), Ravi Rampaul

England/Ireland/Scotland: Mark Watt

England prospects: Matt Critchley, Hamidullah Qadri

Why you should support them: Who doesn’t love an underdog? Quite a bit of young talent around, including in Hamidullah Qadri the first county cricketer born in the 21st century (welp)

Why you shouldn’t support them: They always seem to fly under the radar, and I still haven’t met a Derbyshire supporter (please reveal yourselves if you are out there!)

Durham

Overseas & Kolpak: Cameron Bancroft, D’Arcy Short (T20)

England/Ireland/Scotland: Ben Stokes, Mark Wood, Stuart Poynter

England prospects: Josh Coughlin, Matty Potts

Why you should support them: One of the leading producers of England players over the years, and who have suffered a lot at the hands of the ECB. Who doesn’t have a soft spot for Durham?

Why you shouldn’t support them: It’s been a tough few years due to off-field circumstances, and a lot of their top players have left in the process. Likely to struggle again.

Essex

Overseas & Kolpak: Peter Siddle, Adam Zampa (T20), Mohammad Amir (T20), Simon Harmer, Cameron Delport, Matt Quinn

England/Ireland/Scotland: Alastair Cook, Tom Westley, Ravi Bopara

England prospects: Jamie Porter, Daniel Lawrence, Nick Browne, Sam Cook

Why you should support them: The place to get your Alastair Cook fix post-England retirement. They’re also a lovely bunch of lads, and with their unexpected 2017 CC win have become one of the division’s leading teams.

Why you shouldn’t support them: Have a notable Kolpak contingent, and are just one of those teams for whom when things go wrong, it happens spectacularly.

Glamorgan

Overseas & Kolpak: Shaun Marsh, Marnus Labuschagne, Colin Ingram, Marchant de Lange

England/Ireland/Scotland: Ruaidhri Smith, Timm van der Gugten (well, Netherlands)

England prospects: Prem Sisodiya

Why you should support them: Flying the flag for Wales as the only county not based in England, and another underdog to root for as well. A decent pace bowling attack that should see them improve on last year.

Why you shouldn’t support them: Continually struggling, last year coming bottom of the County Championship and with no trophies in a long time.

Gloucestershire

Overseas & Kolpak: Michael Klinger (T20), Dan Worrall

England/Ireland/Scotland: Adrian Neill

England prospects: Ryan Higgins, Ben Charlesworth

Why you should support them: A team with an exceptional history in short-form cricket, and though they tend to be underdogs nowadays, can still prove themselves worth more than the sum of their parts.

Why you shouldn’t support them: Have tended to stay mid-table in Division Two over the past few years without making huge strides forward. Though known for limited overs success, form can be variable.

Hampshire

Overseas & Kolpak: Aiden Markram, Kyle Abbott, Fidel Edwards, Rilee Rossouw

England/Ireland/Scotland: Liam Dawson, Mason Crane, James Vince

England prospects: Sam Northeast, James Fuller, Aneurin Donald

Why you should support them: Often strong performers in the shortest forms, winning the one day cup last year and having been regulars at T20 finals day in the last decade.

Why you shouldn’t support them: Tend to scrape their Division One safety in the CC every year, so prepare for the stress. Also one of the counties people love to hate, thanks in part to high profile Kolpak signings and the attitude of their chairman.

Kent

Overseas & Kolpak: Matt Renshaw, Adam Milne (T20), Mohammed Nabi (T20), Heino Kuhn

England/Ireland/Scotland: Joe Denly, Sam Billings

England prospects: Daniel Bell-Drummond, Zak Crawley

Why you should support them: A steadily improving county in all formats, reaching the one day final and being promoted from the CC last year. Soon to be 43, the evergreen Darren Stevens is also worthy of a mention here too.

Why you shouldn’t support them: Another team with a notable Kolpak contingent in addition to those above. A team with little experience of the first division as well, so who will be facing a challenge.

Lancashire

Overseas & Kolpak: Joe Burns, Glenn Maxwell, James Faulkner (T20), Dane Vilas

England/Ireland/Scotland: James Anderson, Jos Buttler, Haseeb Hameed, Keaton Jennings, Liam Livingstone

England prospects: Saqib Mahmood, Alex Davies, Matthew Parkinson

Why you should support them: With a strong squad it would be a surprise not to see them promoted this year, especially with the bowling attack that managed to pick up the most bonus points last year. It also looks like they’ve final gotten rid of that god-awful green kit, too.

Why you shouldn’t support them: It’s Lancashire, what more is there to say? (I had to get a dig in here somewhere, didn’t I?)

Leicestershire:

Overseas & Kolpak: Mohammed Abbas, Colin Ackermann, Mark Cosgrove

England prospects: Will Davis

Why you should support them: Just lovely, and definitely improving as a team after many years at the bottom of the pack. Always developing young, talented players. The only ground I’ve been to where I’ve been offered a bag of Sweets Or Weed.

Why you shouldn’t support them: Well known for their top players leaving, and another big exodus took place at the end of the season. Supporting them can be painful, too.

Middlesex

Overseas & Kolpak: Mujeeb Ur Rahman (T20), AB de Villiers (T20), Ross Taylor

England/Ireland/Scotland: Eoin Morgan, Steven Finn, Toby Roland-Jones, Tim Murtagh, Paul Stirling, Sam Robson

England prospects: Nick Gubbins, Ethan Bamber, Tom Barber, Tom Helm, Max Holden

Why you should support them: A squad with a lot of English and Irish talent and hot prospects who will be striving for promotion this year. And there’s the Lord’s factor, because where better to watch cricket?

Why you shouldn’t support them: Have underperformed in the two years following their CC win, and it’s best not to even mention the shorter forms.

Northamptonshire

Overseas & Kolpak: Temba Bavuma, Faheem Ashraf (T20), Jason Holder, Blessing Muzarabani, Richard Levi

England/Ireland/Scotland: Kyle Coetzer

England prospects: Ben Curran

Why you should support them: A team without big resources who have become one of the more successful T20 teams in the country. Also, I love Temba Bavuma in general and just want that stated here.

Why you shouldn’t support them: That T20 success that made them famous went spectacularly downhill last year, finishing well adrift at the bottom of the group. Have lost important players since, too.

Nottinghamshire

Overseas & Kolpak: Dan Christian (T20), James Pattinson

England/Ireland/Scotland: Stuart Broad, Jake Ball, Alex Hales, Ben Duckett

England prospects: Joe Clarke, Zak Chappell, Matthew Carter, Tom Moores, Ben Slater

Why you should support them: A team with a lot of England talent from the past, present, and likely the future. Have strengthened their squad a lot over the winter and will be looking to challenge on all fronts.

Why you shouldn’t support them: Not too popular for buying a lot of their talent, particularly with their winter recruitment. Have also underperformed in the longer format despite a strong squad.

Somerset

Overseas & Kolpak: Azhar Ali, Jerome Taylor (T20)

England/Ireland/Scotland: Jack Leach, Dom Bess, Craig Overton, Josh Davey

England prospects: Jamie Overton, George Bartlett

Why you should support them: A well-liked county, by everyone really apart from the ECB. Also the home of Marcus Trescothick, making centuries into his forties, and probably the best place in the country for spin bowling.

Why you shouldn’t support them: It always ends in pain, doesn’t it? A great track record for finishing high among the runners up, but not getting over the line, which has also returned among the last couple of seasons.

Surrey

Overseas & Kolpak: Aaron Finch, Dean Elgar, Morne Morkel

England/Ireland/Scotland: Sam Curran, Tom Curran, Ollie Pope, Rory Burns, Liam Plunkett, Ben Foakes, Jason Roy, Mark Stoneman

England prospects: Amar Virdi, Will Jacks, Conor McKerr

Why you should support them: England players a plenty, with many coming through the academy system at the moment. The reigning champions of the CC and the favourites to win again, and should compete in the other formats.

Why you shouldn’t support them: One of the definitive love-to-hate counties among the 18, and another who like Notts are regularly called out on their spending.

Sussex

Overseas & Kolpak: Rashid Khan (T20), Mir Hamza, David Wiese, Stiaan van Zyl

England/Ireland/Scotland: Chris Jordan, Tymal Mills

England prospects: Jofra Archer, George Garton, Delray Rawlins

Why you should support them: An up-and-coming team, coached by the wonderful Jason Gillespie. Particularly exciting fast-bowling stocks, and last year’s T20 runners up who will want to go one better. Also, Luke Wright.

Why you shouldn’t support them: For whatever reason, they tend to be bad at 50 over cricket, so probably not the team to root for if you’re after that Lord’s final.

Warwickshire

Overseas & Kolpak: Jeetan Patel, Ashton Agar (T20)

England/Ireland/Scotland: Chris Woakes, Olly Stone, Ian Bell

England prospects: Will Rhodes, Ed Pollock, Sam Hain, Henry Brookes, Dom Sibley

Why you should support them: A likeable team, as they would be with Chris Woakes and Ian Bell. After a few years with an aging squad, now have quite a few young players who have either come through or been given a second chance from elsewhere.

Why you shouldn’t support them: Though they’ve bounced straight back from division two, they really crashed out during their relegation season so their return to the top flight might be a learning curve.

Worcestershire

Overseas & Kolpak: Callum Ferguson, Martin Guptil (T20), Wayne Parnell

England/Ireland/Scotland: Moeen Ali

England prospects: Pat Brown, Josh Tongue, Dillon Pennington

Why you should support them: A team with a lot of strong homegrown young talent, who won the nation’s hearts on their way to their T20 Blast win in 2018. Led by Moeen Ali, and if you don’t appreciate them for that then what’s up with you mate?

Why you shouldn’t support them: The ultimate yo-yo team, constantly being promoted or relegated whilst rarely staying in one place, so not one to support if you don’t want the sadness every other year.

Yorkshire

Overseas & Kolpak: Duanne Olivier

England/Ireland/Scotland: Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Adil Rashid, David Willey, Gary Ballance

England prospects: Ben Coad, Matthew Fisher, Tom Kohler-Cadmore, Harry Brook

Why you should support them: They’re my team and I would die for them, the best team you can support. In seriousness though, they feature a lot of England players from past and present and tend to challenge across all competitions in some degree. Look strongest in the shorter forms.

Why you shouldn’t support them: Another love-to-hate county, as us Yorkshire fans do tend to go on about our successes. It has been a tricky couple of years as well, with a struggling batting line-up and no major reinforcements on that front.

#right i should have all the overseas listed #though as i was writing it middlesex signed ross taylor #so who knows #i haven't listed *all* the kolpaks as it would be a lot #and i'll have missed some ireland/scotland players as to knowledge #I just didn't want player lists to get too long when they're already quite long in places #but yeah #and state your case as well if you wish!#cricket #county cricket

For the week of 18 February 2019

Quick Bits:

Aquaman #45 gives us a new creation story with Father Sea and Mother Salt. It’s interesting world-building for what’s going on on this island. Robson Rocha, Daniel Henriques, and Sunny Gho seem to level up on their art again. This book is gorgeous.

| Published by DC Comics

Avengers #15 continues the vampire civil war, with the Shadow Colonel basically kidnapping Ghost Rider. Jason Aaron is definitely taking this series in weird places, but it remains highly entertaining. Especially with collaborators like David Marquez and Erick Arciniega who deliver some incredible artwork.

| Published by Marvel

Avengers: No Road Home #2 reveals how Nyx and her family took Olympus. There’s also a neat parallel narration for Hawkeye explaining how the guy with just a bow and arrows can take on gods and monsters. The art from Paco Medina, Juan Vlasco, and Jesus Aburtov is gorgeous, they really seem to pushing themselves with their storytelling. It’s just a shame that none of the artists are credited on the cover.

| Published by Marvel

Barbarella/Dejah Thoris #2 is ridiculously impressive. Leah Williams, Germán García, Addison Duke, and Crank! are delivering an intelligent, humorous, and compelling adventure tale here that reminds me a lot of some of what Alan Moore and Chris Sprouse did in Tom Strong. It’s incredibly inventive and the artwork is amazing. Highly recommended.

| Published by Dynamite

Batman #65 gives us the penultimate chapter of “The Price”, featuring an all out battle between Flash, Gotham Girl, and Gotham. The artwork from Guillem March and Tomeu Morey is stunning, with some incredible layouts as the action continues.

| Published by DC Comics

Black Widow #2 is fairly bloody and violent as Natasha racks up a body count tracking down the people running “No Restraints Play”, a site that specializes in depravity. Flaviano’s line art seems scratchier than the first issue, but it works for the violent tone of story.

| Published by Marvel

Bloodborne #9 begins the third arc, “A Song of Crows”, as Aleš Kot, Piotr Kowalski, Brad Simpson, Aditya Bidikar, and Jim Campbell spotlight Eileen the Crow. This is a bit of return to the kind of abstract storytelling and embrace of oblique existentialism of the first arc as Eileen investigates the ritual murder of a hunter, but is confounded by time and holes in the narrative.

| Published by Titan

Catwoman #8 is ostensibly the “conclusion” to “Something Smells Fishy”, but it doesn’t actually end the story in any way and leaves the reader at a cliffhanger of continuing elements. That being said, it’s still an entertaining issue from Joëlle Jones, Elena Casagrande, Fernando Blanco, John Kalisz, and Josh Reed. Wonderful action sequences, and more questions as to the nature of a reliquary that seems to contain resurrective powers.

| Published by DC Comics

Delver #1 begins a new Comixology Original series from MK Reed, C. Spike Trotman, Clive Hawken, Maarta Laiho, and Ed Dukeshire. It’s a very intriguing and unique take on the fantasy gaming theme of a dungeon full of treasure and monsters with delvers working to plumb the depths. But it’s from the perspective of the townsfolk whose land the door to the dungeon appears in and how it changes and impacts their lives.

| Published by Iron Circus Comics

Doctor Strange #11 concludes the battle with Dormammu and the Faltine, for now at least, from Mark Waid, Jesús Saiz, Javier Pina, Rachelle Rosenberg, and Cory Petit. Some very nice art as usual from Saiz, Pina, and Rosenberg.

| Published by Marvel

Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #3 continues “Mother of Exiles” from Tom Taylor, Juann Cabal, Nolan Woodard, and Travis Lanham as Peter finds out a bit about the rumours regarding his neighbour and Under York, another duplicate New York City under New York City, that oddly isn’t the Monster Metropolis. Great humour from Taylor in the dialogue.

| Published by Marvel

Guardians of the Galaxy #2 takes a somewhat different approach as Peter Quill drunk dials Kitty as he tries to make sense of what’s going on with Thanos, Gamora, everyone who’s dead, and the current state of the Guardians. Donny Cates, Geoff Shaw, Marte Gracia, and Cory Petit are really taking this series into interesting offbeat territory, while still delivering some excellent humour and an ominous feel to Starfox’s new band of “guardians”.

| Published by Marvel

Incursion #1 begins a new mini picking up on where the Eternal Warrior and Geomancer are since Harbinger Wars 2 and Ninja-K, and pit them against Imperatrix Virago, a cosmic villain that is devouring worlds (kind of like if Galactus were pestilence), from Andy Diggle, Alex Paknadel, Doug Braithwaite, José Villarrubia, Diego Rodriguez, and Marshall Dillon. The art is incredible, the stakes seem pretty high, and the outlook after this first issue look pretty grim for Earth.

| Published by Valiant

James Bond 007 #4 sees Stephen Mooney join Greg Pak, Tríona Farrell, and Ariana Maher for the art chores for three issues, continuing the tale of Bond and “Oddjob”’s team-up. Like Marc Laming, Mooney seems to be born to draw Bond and espionage themed stories.

| Published by Dynamite

Judge Dredd: Toxic #4 concludes what has been an excellent series dealing with xenophobia and hateful rhetoric from Paul Jenkins, Marco Castiello, Vincenzo Acunzo, Jason Millet, Shawn Lee, and Robbie Robbins. I’ve always found non 2000 AD Judge Dredd stories to be a bit of crapshoot, but IDW have been delivering well with the past two mini-series, this and Under Siege.

| Published by IDW

Justice League #18 is the latest excursion into the Legion of Doom territory from James Tynion IV, Pasqual Ferry, Hi-Fi, and Tom Napolitano. It works with some of the revelations from last issue regarding Martian Manhunter and builds a new narrative for Lionel Luthor’s past and his work with Vandal Savage. It’s interesting to see Tynion working with variations on discarded continuities in this way, building a new past that synthesizes pre-Flashpoint ideas with the current batch of backstories.

| Published by DC Comics

Middlewest #4 only seems to be getting better and better as more of this world and how it seems to work get fleshed out by Skottie Young, Jorge Corona, Jean-Francois Beaulieu, and Nate Piekos. There’s something incredibly magical and special about this series that taps into the feeling of some of the best coming-of-age fantasies as it blends Ray Bradbury, JM Barrie, and Carlo Collodi into this magical realist adventure.

| Published by Image

Miles Morales: Spider-Man #3 concludes the opening arc from Saladin Ahmed, Javier Garrón, David Curiel, and Cory Petit by adding Captain America to Miles & Rhino’s team-up. This has been a very entertaining start to the series, with a nice mix of Miles’ personal life and superheroics.

| Published by Marvel

Naomi #2 reasserts that Jamal Campbell is a powerhouse of an artist and one of the best kept secrets of the past few years who really should have a higher profile. His art is amazing. It also helps that the story he, Brian Michael Bendis, David F. Walker, and Carlos M. Mangual are telling is as compelling as this, as Naomi confronts Dee as she tries to learn about the day of her adoption. It’s very widescreen and epic as it hints at the broader DC Universe, but at the same time this is very deeply personal.

| Published by DC Comics

Old Man Quill #2 gives the Guardians a taste of the depravity and despair that Earth has fallen to in this post-superhero world. Ethan Sacks shows there’s still a bit of humour left, though, in that Piledriver’s descendent thinks that Piledriver was one of the all-time greats. Also the art from Robert Gill and Andres Mossa gives a wonderful amount of detail to the wastelands.

| Published by Marvel

Relay #4 returns after a delay with new artist Dalibor Talajić (I believe Andy Clarke had to bow out due to illness, but I’m not 100% sure on that). Talajić’s art style is not as bright and clean as Clarke’s, giving a darker, shadowy approach that results in the bleak, horror elements of the story coming further into focus.

| Published by AfterShock

Seven to Eternity #13 returns from its own lengthy delay to conclude the arc in Skod, with the revelation of part of Adam’s choice to save the Mud King. It reiterates the theme since the beginning that there seem to be no good choices in this world, that everything tainted, despite Adam’s father believing the world black and white. While we are going into another trade break, Rick Remender, Jerome Opeña, Matt Hollingsworth, and Rus Wooton consistently make this worth the wait.

| Published by Image / Giant Generator

Sharkey: The Bounty Hunter #1 is the latest of Mark Millar’s Netflix feeder series, after The Magic Order and Prodigy, with Simone Bianchi and Peter Doherty rounding out the team. This one feels a bit like if Warren Ellis were writing Strontium Dog, and it works. The artwork from Bianchi is worth it on its own. Gorgeous character designs.

| Published by Image

Venom #11 is another holy crap issue from Donny Cates, Ryan Stegman, Joshua Cassara, JP Mayer, Frank Martin, and Clayton Cowles. There are some really big revelations about Eddie and his family that really need to be read firsthand. Amazing work.

| Published by Marvel

X-O Manowar #24 reminds us again just how good of an artist and storyteller Tomás Giorello is. The action sequences and battle between Aric and Hesnid is incredible, with fairly inventive layouts that just elevate the overall impact of the pages. Giorello and Diego Rodriguez really make this something joyous to behold.
