Earlier this year Marvel Comics introduced a series of $1 reprinted introductory titles under the True Believers logo. All featured characters leading into Marvel’s Secret Wars summer event series. A new batch of True Believers titles are being released this month, offering a great jumping on point to ten titles featuring the best of Marvel’s pantheon of strong women leads.
Each issue is a reprint of the first issue of key titles, many available in their full story arcs as trade paperbacks and hardcovers for those who get hooked. And expect to. Whether you’ve been in or out of the Marvel Universe lately you’ll find stories here that even made national news. Like Jason Aaron’s story of the first woman holding the Thor mantle (and hammer). Like Ms. Marvel, soon to be featured in a Marvel Cinematic Universe film.
Like Nathan Edmondson and Phil Noto’s Black Widow, the borg.com pick for Best Comic Book Series of 2014.
The True Believers titles to look for include Black Widow, Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, Princess Leia, She-Hulk, Silk, Spider-Gwen, Spider-Woman, Thor, and The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl. And each issue is only $1.
Here are the rest of the covers:
Look for all these this month at your local comic book store. And don’t forget to buy some for friends of all ages–girls, boys, women, and men everywhere are fans of all these titles.
