If you’re wondering what some of the best comic book series are from 2014, you need look no further than your local comic book store right now. Three of the top ten series of the year have new issues released today. With Afterlife with Archie, Issue #7, a new story arc begins, featuring the classic Riverdale gang in the aftermath of an encounter with zombies. Image Comics’ Copperhead, Issue #4, continues its standout story of newly-arrived sheriff Clara Bronson and her son in a sci-fi Western town of aliens and mischief. And from BOOM! Studios, Wild’s End, Issue #4, continues what could be described as what would happen if neighbors of Winnie the Pooh and the gang have a War of the Worlds encounter, and if that story was directed by Quentin Tarentino.
Afterlife with Archie is written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa with that fantastic artwork we’ve come to expect from Francesco Francavilla. Copperhead is from the minds of writer Jay Faerber and artists Scott Godlewski and Ron Riley. And Wild’s End is written deftly by Dan Abnett, with artwork by I.N.J. Culbard.
