Recibí mis cómics de enero en tiempo récord. Y los leí aún más rápido. Icon sigue produciendo algunos de los títulos más interesantes como Brilliant y Superior, mientras que Avatar sigue engriendo a los fans del terror... este mes finaliza Caligula pero comienza Ferals. Unwritten y Morning Glories siguen siendo algunas de mis colecciones regulares favoritas, mientras que Luther Strode y Severed son las mejores miniseries de Image actualmente. Me gustaría hacer énfasis en la calidad del primer número de Whispers, un título más que prometedor. Y ahora, sin más preámbulos, ahí van los cómics de enero. ¿Cuál debería reseñar primero?
