New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: Image Comics – April 23 2025

Next week is the 17th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers Image Comics April 23 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering Image Comics April 16 2025 new releases.

This week in Image Comics: Medieval Spawn’s origins, Supermassive one-shots collected, Dust to Dust’s mid-series mystery, Duke vs. Cobra Commander, Power Fantasy’s Second Summer of Love turns to hate, a silent Roadblock, a dull assortment of Crises, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: I can’t pick anything other than The Power Fantasy (2024) #8, not only because the series is embedded in my Top 12 of 2025 every damn week but because this is the second half of a hotly anticipated tale revealing more of the background of what makes this super-powered world history so different than our own.

This post includes every comic out from Image Comics this week on April 23 2025, plus collected editions. This isn’t the typical comic releases post you can find on other sites. Why? I explain each collection and comment on every series with a new issue out this week to help you figure out if they’re for you.

Plus, for some long-running series and Image Comics imprints, I’ll point you to a personally-curated guide within the Crushing Comics Guide to Indie Comics to find out how to collect that title in full!

There’s no other website on the internet that can claim that.

And now, onto Image Comics April 23 2025 new releases!

Next week is the 15th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers Image Comics April 9 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering Image Comics April 2 2025 new releases.

This week in Image Comics: A silent Jinx from Watters & Dani, two Spawn classics collected, a major explainer in Transformers, old-lady revenge, Geiger vs. The Glowing Woman, collected Lore Remastered, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: This is a strong week of Image where I’m interested in every single book on the list, but there can be only choice for me – Dan Watters & Dani taking on my favorite Joe in G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero – Jinx (2025) #1! Jinx has only popped up occasionally in Larry Hama’s relaunched A Real American Hero universe so far, so I’m looking forward to seeing her in this classic-style silent adventure.

New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: Marvel Comics – March 26 2025

Next week is the 13th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers Marvel Comics March 26 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering Marvel Comics March 19 2025 new releases.

This week in Marvel Comics: Godzilla invades the Marvel U, X-Manhunt is over (hooray!), Scarlet Witch gets Masterworked, Daredevil wraps his neverending deadly sins, Ultimate Gambit & Kitty Pryde, DWJ’s Beta Ray Bill back to print, Red Hulk breaks out, Old Republic Legends reprinted, whatever the Pooluminati are, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: It’s is a very tight call to make this pick over two books resolving cliffhangers that have been on my mind all month, but I have to give it to Ultimate Wolverine (2025) #3 debuting Ultimate Gambit and Kitty Pryde! This book is becoming the de facto “Ultimate X-Men” since the actual Ultimate X-Men (2024) isn’t much of a traditional X-Men title. However, I very nearly picked Red Hulk (2025) #2 or Ultimate Spider-Man (2024) #15 given how both of their prior issues left off last month.

This post includes every comic out from Marvel Comics March 26 2025, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats.

The Energon Universe Collecting Guide – G.I. Joe & Transformers, Skybound Entertainment

Guide to Energon Universe – GI Joe & Transformers (New for Patrons!)

March 19, 2025 by krisis Leave a Comment

After a few months packed with catching up on reading new releases from Marvel, DC, and Image for my weekly YouTube show “The Pull List,” I’m excited to get back to launching new comic guides to Patrons of CK! And, I’m especially excited about this first new guide, because it breaks ground on covering a comics property that is incredibly close to my heart. Fire up your 80s nostalgia, grab your favorite action figures, and get ready to shout “YO JOE” and “AUTOBOTS ROLL OUT” because it’s time for a Guide to the Energon Universe – GI Joe & Transformers!

Guide to the Energon Universe – GI Joe & Transformers

This guide is available exclusively to Patrons and will be available to the public in June 2025 with the release of the first trade of the new G.I. Joe (2024) ongoing series!

As I’ve been catching up on my Energon Universe reading I’ve looked around the web to see what collecting guides and reading orders exist. Some of my colleagues have put together handy quick guides to each series, but from my perspective they were all missing something.
