Hot NEW Comics: Spider-Men, Vampires, and the Fall of Hell’s Kitchen.
Let’s talk about comic collecting. Not reading for the heart or soul—no, this is the hunt. First appearances, mysterious new enemies, reimagined legends, and of course, those unexpected curveballs that make you wonder if your $4.99 will someday be worth a whole lunch combo (maybe even with a drink). This week’s batch of new comics throws down hard with major character debuts, high-profile creative teams, and stories that drip with potential value—if you’re paying attention. Let’s unpack these comics before the spec train leaves the station.

Hot NEW Comics: Spider-Men, Vampires, and the Fall of Hell’s Kitchen.
The Amazing Spider-Man #1, a brand-new era of web-slinging kicks off with a punch to the gut—and a first appearance right on the cover. Yes, a major new character debuts here, and he’s not hiding. Not even a little. This new #1 is alive and thwipping with the kind of energy that makes collectors scramble. Peter Parker is jobless (again), battling Rhino (again), and facing a mystery villain weaponizing Spider-villains—including one we haven’t seen in over seven years. That’s ancient history in Spider-time. Oh, and Norman Osborn is still playing the “I’m not a Goblin anymore” game. You believe him? We don’t. This is the kind of launch issue that ends up back on the radar when that new villain pops up in a future live-action trailer. Pick it up now or pay “eBay” prices later. Absolute Batman #7, here we go: Joker and Mr. Freeze make their first appearances in the Absolute Universe—and that alone should be enough to make this issue fly off shelves. But just to sweeten the pot, this isn’t some filler chapter. This is a full-blown character deep-dive into Victor Fries, back when he was still a rising scientist, tangled up with the Ark M experiment and hiding dark secrets that just happen to connect to the Joker. Oh, and did we mention superstar artist Marcos Martín is guesting on this arc? That’s like asking a Michelin chef to run your food truck for a day. Do not sleep on this issue. Universe-defining new iterations of iconic villains start here. Vatican City #1, Mark Millar is back with a brand-new series that might just be the most brutal “vampires vs. religion” concept we’ve seen in a while. Picture this: the entire world is a vampire wasteland. Everyone’s dead. Everyone—except the two thousand random tourists stuck inside Vatican City’s walls, protected by holy relics and sheer luck. The vampires? Oh, they’re outside… and they’ve got time. This is The Walking Dead meets Priest with a European twist, and Millar’s track record speaks for itself when it comes to launching new franchises that end up on Netflix or the big screen. First issue, high stakes, and heavy horror atmosphere. Collector radar activated. Star Wars Jedi Knights #2, let’s talk toy-collecting crossover gold: ATHA PRIME finally makes his comic debut after spending decades as a never-released Kenner action figure. That alone is enough for fans to grab this. But the story? Yoda teams up with Vetna Mooncrest to confront Atha Prime’s planetary tyranny, which is hiding secrets the Republic really wouldn’t approve of. For the Star Wars deep-cut crowd, this is vintage Expanded Universe energy with modern canon vibes. First comic appearance of a vintage toy that was never actually released? That’s a collectible rabbit hole we can get behind. Daredevil #20, If you were thinking Matt Murdock might catch a break after the emotional wreckage of issue #19… think again. He’s alone, beaten down, but somehow still manages to reconnect with a long-lost love. Because apparently emotional whiplash is his superpower now. But while Matt tries to navigate the personal, a brand-new enemy creeps in, one that doesn’t just want to destroy Hell’s Kitchen—they want to rot it from the inside out. This is the start of a brand-new story arc, which means it’s a perfect jumping-on point for collectors and speculators. New villain? New dynamic? Sounds like an issue you stash in the box and check back on in 18 months.
