The Initiative AnnualFollowing a brief announcement concerning the future of the show (in regards to content over the next few weeks), we get right to the week’s new releases from Marvel as well as the Pick of the Week, we hear from our man watching for Skrulls again with another voicemail from Carlos, and some love is given to Moon Knight Annual #1 with some gushing directed toward Duane Swierczynski, Jefte Paolo, and Shannon Blanchard. Plus, Derek Coward stops by to let us know what Marvel titles he’s picking up this week from his comic shop.
