DOMINIQUE LAVEAU VOODOO CHILD #1 (MR)
DOMINIQUE LAVEAU: VOODOO CHILD is the story of a half-breed, outcast and heir to the Voodoo Queenship of New Orleans, if she can live long enough to claim her birthright. New Orleans is the most haunted city in America: a town of centuries-old ghosts and newly drowned spirits; where vampires, voodoo spirits and loups-garous make their home. Ruling over this all are the powerful Voodoo Queens, whose influence stretches into politics, business and crime as they maintain a delicate balance between the mortal and supernatural worlds. But in the aftermath of Katrina, all that has changed, for someone or something has murdered the Voodoo Queen and most of her court. The number one suspect is Dominique Laveau, a grad student at Tulane who is about to discover that her entire life has been a lie. Now Dominique must forge alliances with those out to kill her while seeking to uncover the truth behind the royal murders, as she is ultimately forced to deal with a destiny she could never have imagined. Voodoo Child is a new monthly series written by Selwyn Seyfu Hinds, former editor-in-chief of The Source magazine, award-winning author, journalist and TV producer, with art by Milestone Media co-founder Denys Cowan (THE QUESTION) and covers by Rafael Grampá.

NEW DEADWARDIANS #1 (OF 8) (MR)
Another vampire/zombie comic? Really, Vertigo® Trust us. This is different. In post-Victorian England, nearly everyone of the upper classes has voluntarily become a vampire to escape the lower classes who are all zombies. Into this simmering cauldron is thrust Chief Inspector George Suttle, a lonely detective who's got the slowest beat in London: investigating murders in a world where everyone is already dead! But when the body of a young aristocrat washes up on the banks of the Thames, Suttle's quest for the truth will take him from the darkest sewers to the gleaming halls of power, and reveal the rotten heart at the center of this strange world. THE NEW DEADWARDIANS is brought to vivid life by fan-favorite writer Dan Abnett (RESURRECTION MAN, LEGION LOST) with art by newcomer I. N. J. Culbard (At The Mountains of Madness).

____________________________________
“Todas las cosas buenas deben terminar”, afirma un viejo refrán. Y vaya que es condenadamente cierto. Marzo ha sido un mes de finales, de últimos números. Tenemos la conclusión dramática y llena de acción de Kick-Ass volumen 2, también tenemos el trágico final de Luther Strode, el evocativo capítulo final de “La guerra de las palabras” en Unwritten y, por encima de todo, el último ejemplar de Avengers the Children’s Crusade. Me encantó la etapa inicial de Allan Heinberg en Young Avengers, y esperé la continuación por cuatro años (incluso le pregunté a Joe Quesada por ella en Newsarama en el 2007 o el 2008). El comienzo de Children’s Crusade tomó exactamente cuatro años y un mes, y luego de casi dos años, esta fantástica miniserie llega a su fin. En serio, considero que es la mejor serie limitada de Marvel del 2010, 2011 y el primer trimestre del 2012. He leído las páginas finales y averiguado el destino de Wiccan y Hulkling con lágrimas de alegría. Y no estoy bromeando. Un maravilloso momento de cierre. Varias colecciones han terminado, pero afortunadamente ya han llegado nuevas. Y definitivamente hablaré bastante sobre algunas de estas nuevas series. Mientras tanto, los dejo con mis cómics de marzo.
