Hot NEW Comics This Week 5-28-25.
If you thought comic book speculation was slowing down, think again. New Comic Book Day for 5/28/25 brings another eclectic and collectible batch of issue #1s, finale showdowns, retro reimaginings, and character origin reboots—each one daring you to ignore them (which we all know you won’t). Whether it’s a possible key debut, a weird timeline twist, or a variant cover that might triple in price next con season, this week is primed for picking.

Let’s break down the books every collector should at least pretend to pass on, but ultimately won’t…

Giant-Size X-Men #1
50 years later, and the X-Men are still rewriting their own history—and dragging a few unexpected heroes along for the ride. Ms. Marvel, yes, Kamala Khan, is pulled into the mutant past and forced to witness the birth of the Uncanny era and that iconic Krakoa moment. Only this time, someone’s rewriting the script, and history is cracking under pressure. Al Ewing and Sara Pichelli deliver a “What the Hell?” moment with the first appearance of an X-Man that never was. Add superstar artist Adam Kubert and tag-team X-writers Jackson Lanzing & Collin Kelly, and you’ve got yourself a timeline-twisting, nostalgia-loaded one-shot that demands a bag, board, and an extra speculative glance. It’s the first of five, and if this mystery X-Man shows up again… well, you already know what happens to issue #1s in that case.

Mr. Terrific Year One #1
Michael Holt’s road to heroism is officially under renovation. In this retelling-slash-expansion of his origin, we watch a brilliant man fall into the abyss after tragedy, sell off his empire, and kickstart a chain reaction of questionable decisions—classic superhero birth narrative. Al Letson (yes, that Al Letson from Monarch: Legacy of Monsters) pens the layers of grief, guilt, and genius that eventually forge Mr. Terrific, while Valentine De Landro brings the visual gravitas. Oh, and by the way—Darkseid might be lurking in the background of this whole story. Yep. This isn’t just an origin—it’s a breadcrumb trail. Smart collectors will watch for cameos, tech reveals, and any retcons with multiversal implications. This could quietly become a sleeper hit if DC decides to do anything with Mr. T next year.

Absolute Wonder Woman #8
Diana thought punching monsters was hard. Then she met the bureaucracy of Area 41. This starts the new arc, “As My Mothers Made Me,” where Wonder Woman goes from swinging swords to solving mazes—specifically, the “Black Box Maze,” which sounds like a 2000s metal band but is actually a mysterious testing ground for… something. What’s inside is teased to “shock,” which is a reliable comics code word for “possible first appearance” or “wild retcon.” Don’t sleep on this one—it’s that quiet middle arc issue that’ll come back in six months when someone new shows up and fans trace it back to this.

Predator vs. Spider-Man #2
A blackout in New York. A Predator who’s off the grid, off the code, and off his rocker. “Skinner” doesn’t care about honor or hunting rights—he just wants blood. And he’s creeping through subway tunnels with MJ stuck on a stalled train? Sounds like bait. Meanwhile, Peter Parker is doing his homework, Kraven’s plotting his hunt, and Detective LaPearl is just trying to not die. This issue screams cinematic horror tension, but make it Marvel. Watch this one closely—especially if Skinner is more than just a one-arc threat. Predator variants tend to creep up in price when the killer sticks around.

What If Donald Duck Became Iron Man #1
Marvel’s most ridiculous “What If?” yet is also its most collectible. Inspired by Iron Man’s original debut in Tales of Suspense #39, we now have Donald Duck in a cave (presumably one of Scrooge’s) being forced by the Beagle Boys to build a money-bin-cracking machine. Naturally, he builds an armor suit instead—because that’s what ducks do. Between the Disney/Marvel crossover novelty and the guaranteed variant flood, this is the one non-canon book that could become a convention darling. Don’t laugh—What If? books have a way of becoming actual canon… eventually.

Batman #160
Hush is back—again—but now he’s teamed up with a new partner named Silence. So yes, we’re going full Inception with villains inspired by words that mean “quiet.” Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee continue their “H2SH” arc, and it’s clearly building toward a visual slugfest and psychological showdown. Is this new character Silence a key player or a one-and-done? That’s the speculative gamble—and it might pay off if DC throws him into future arcs or a side mini. You don’t get a new villain name-dropped in a Loeb/Lee project without someone in editorial thinking long-term.

Werewolf by Night Red Band #10
We’ve officially hit the finale, and it’s… messy. Marvel’s horror wing wraps up this bloodbath of a series with the kind of gore that would make Blade wince. If they’re launching the next horror event from here, collectors will want to snag this now before prices spike after the next Werewolf-centric announcement. Oh, and Red Band means full violence—so don’t expect a sanitized finale. If a new monster debuts, or if the next big horror thread is teased on the last page, this could be your early ticket in.

Gargoyles Demona #1
Greg Weisman and Frank Paur reunite to spotlight the angriest, most vengeful gargoyle of all time—Demona. Set in 1093 (yes, really), this issue drips with lore, pain, and a lot of fire and fury. Demona wanders into Northumberland and gets caught up in a massacre that reignites her thousand-year vendetta. Expect a heavy origin story, deeper world-building, and plenty of variant cover options (Paur, Meghan Hetrick, Mark Spears, Jae Lee & June Chung). It’s got franchise DNA and may kick off something bigger if Dynamite sticks with the timeline approach. If you’re betting on the Gargoyles resurgence, this is a foundational piece.

Dark Honor #1
A pandemic-era crime thriller that starts with Covid-19 and ends with a turf war that could reshape the underworld. Rain, daughter of a legendary mob boss, is the only one trying to hold the fading criminal network together as a new masked figure makes a play for dominance. Gritty noir meets modern decay. With legacy, desperation, and betrayal all swirling together, this mini has the setup to become a cult classic—especially if this new villain becomes a recurring underworld player in the indie scene. One to watch if you’re stocking future bins with off-radar indies.
