Best new comics releasing January 31, 2024: Wolverine #42, Beast World #6 & more DC Comics | BOOM! Studios | Marvel ComicsA tour through DC\u2019s Silver Age, the end of Beast World, and the return of dead X-Men round out the best new comics for the week of January 31, 2024. It\u2019s a fifth week for comics, which used to mean a big event or something special. Nowadays, it usually means annuals or business as usual. The fifth week is a plight surrounding the weekly nature of comics. With a schedule built around releasing new comics every Wednesday, you\u2019d occasionally wind up with five Wednesdays in a month. With the extra publishing weight, publishers used to publish massive events like DC One Million or Amalgam Comics. This week does see some slightly lighter releases, but the companies are managing well enough. DC will release a couple of annuals while Marvel continues to build its massive X-Men event. Here\u2019s what you should look for in January 31\u2019s new comics. Best new comics week of January 31, 2024 A tour through DC\u2019s World\u2019s Finest, the return of dead X-Men, and the next evolution of the Power Rangers marks the best new comics for the week of January 31, 2024. DC titles will hit stands on January 30, while other publishers will be released on January 31. You can find your local comic shop at Comic Shop Locator. Batman\/Superman: World\u2019s Finest 2024 Annual The main book is currently tied up in Return to Kingdom Come, which concludes its arc in February. That doesn\u2019t mean the annual can\u2019t have a little fun. Though it sounds like at least one story will feature the notorious imp Mr. Mxyzptlk taunting Superman, the rest of the book sounds like it\u2019s setting up the future of World\u2019s Finest. With stories featuring Metamorpho, Bumblebee, and the Challengers, all signs point to this incredible book (which we named as one of the best of 2023) continuing its heartwarming exploration of Silver Age DC. A WORLD TOUR OF THE WORLD\u2019S FINEST! It\u2019s the world\u2019s finest annual! As the battle against Magog rages on Earth-22, Batman and Superman discover a surprising secret by way of the 5th dimension! Meanwhile, Metamorpho\u2019s story picks up after the events of the Elementary arc as our hero journeys deep within an ancient tomb that may have a hidden, deadly connection to his secret origin! Plus, Batman recruits the Challengers of the Unknown for a top-secret mission, and a special, sizzling story stars the Teen Titans\u2019 most buzzworthy member, Bumblebee! It\u2019s a world tour of the World\u2019s Finest in this first-ever series annual, curated by World\u2019s Finest architect Mark Waid! By Mark Waid, Dan Mora, Christopher Cantwell, Cullen Bunn, Stephanie Williams, Jorge Forn\u00e9s, Rosi K\u00e4mpe, Edwin Galmon, Dennis Culver & Travis Mercer Avengers: Twilight #2 The first issue of Avengers: Twilight has some heavy hits, with the death of Daredevil and the return of Captain America. Not to mention the reveal of Tony Stark\u2019s son and the horror of Tony\u2019s current state. Zdarsky\u2019s long-gestating Avengers epic has all the early hallmarks of an all-time classic. This issue sees a new take on Bullseye and is the first outing of a revived Captain America, so there\u2019s no better time to get started on this dystopian future epic than now. With the clock ticking to New Year\u2019s Day, and the world against him, CAPTAIN AMERICA must build an army to save America! Will his surviving friends sign up, or is he going to have to lead the ragtag group called THE DEFENDERS against the expert military marksman known as BULLSEYE? By Chip Zdarsky, Daniel Acu\u00f1a, Cory Petit, & Alex Ross Titans: Beast World #6 There aren\u2019t really words to describe how exciting it\u2019s been to see the Titans finally take their rightful place. DC has teased the notion of a Titans-led universe and an aged-up Justice League since the late \u201800s, and seeing them at the center of a major event was a thrill. Beast World definitely had more weight than anyone could have guessed, and its biggest twists \u2013 including the death of Beast Boy \u2013 are sure to have long-lasting repercussions. How will Raven cope with the return of her demon self? Is Beast Boy really dead? Is this all just secretly paving the way for a Justice League return? We\u2019ll find out soon enough. THE DC UNIVERSE MUST EVOLVE OR DIE IN THE BEAST WORLD FINALE! DR. HATE REVEALED! As Raven makes her final stand against the chaotic evil sorcerer, the Titans race against time to cure the world of the epidemic caused by Beast Boy. How far will the team go? How much will the friends sacrifice? Watch as the DCU is forced to evolve or die in this shocking conclusion! By Tom Taylor, Lucas Meyer, Ivan Reis, Eduardo Pansica, Danny Miki, J\u00falio Ferreira, Brad Anderson, Romulo Fajardo Jr., & Wes Abbott Power Rangers Unlimited: The Morphin Masters #1 BOOM! has been quietly running a major epic with its Power Rangers event. Darkest Hour has reached a crescendo with the long-awaited confrontation between Lord Drakkon and Ranger Slayer, the story\u2019s long-suffering, alternate-reality versions of Tommy and Kimberly. Morphin Masters will continue the expansion of the lore of Power Rangers. There\u2019s been a ton of heavy-lifting done with the idea of what the Morphin Grid actually is and how it relates to the wider world of Power Rangers. With the return of long-time writer Ryan Parrott, this promises to be an issue for the ages. Following the shocking events of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #116, an iconic character has entered The Grid, searching desperately for the Morphin Masters and the answers they might possess. But as Dark Specter\u2019s infection grows increasingly more dangerous\u2026 new revelations are uncovered that will shake the Power Rangers universe to its very core! Iconic Rangers writer Ryan Parrott returns to the franchise alongside co-writer Rachel Wagner (Power Rangers, Rogue Sun) and artist Daniel Bayliss (Firefly). Fans will not want to miss this key tie-in issue expanding the epic Darkest Hour event! By Ryan Parrott, Rachel Wagner, Daniel Bayliss, Arthur Heli, Ed Dukeshire, & Toni Infante Dead X-Men #1 It wouldn\u2019t be a week of comics without the promise of some more X-Men hijinks. Dead X-Men dives into the Rise of the Powers of X with a new team of X-Men comprised of dead heroes. Cannonball, Prodigy, Frenzy, Dazzler, and Jubilee were the first casualties of the current X-Men narrative, killed by Nimrod just after they were elected to be the new X-Men. Dead X-Men sees them brought from beyond the grave as Xavier attempts to kill Moira X before her mutant powers activate. If they succeed, they\u2019ll prevent the Orchis takeover of Earth, but at the cost of the mutant sanctuary of Krakoa. DEATH WAS ONLY THE BEGINNING! When the world turned against Krakoa, these five mutants lost their lives\u2026but their mission as X-Men is just getting started. To preserve Xavier\u2019s dream, they must accomplish the impossible\u2014or die again trying! Spinning out from RISE OF THE POWERS OF X, discover\u2026who are the DEAD X-MEN?! By Steve Foxe, Bernard Chang, Jonas Scharf, Vincenzo Carrat\u00f9, & Pere P\u00e9rez Wolverine #42 Sabretooth War kicked off in a truly grisly fashion, with Wolverine\u2019s son used to spell out a bloody birthday message and versions of the original X-Men torn apart. Marvel\u2019s clearly trying to capitalize on telling Marvel\u2019s most violent Wolverine story, and so far, they\u2019re pulling it off. Still, it\u2019s hard to deny this feels somewhat disjointed. Sabretooth War is running throughout Wolverine #50, but it\u2019s all going down while Fall of the House of X decimates the X-Men and X-Force looks for Beast. How long until Wolverine is stretched too thin? SABRETOOTH WAR\u2014PART 2! VICTOR CREED and the SABRETEETH have big plans for LOGAN. See the war escalate under the claws of the many Creeds! By Victor LaValle, Benjamin Percy, Cory Smith, Frank D\u2019Armata, Cory Petit, Leinil Francis Yu, and Romulo Fajardo Jr. Every new comic releasing the week of January 31, 2024 The 06 Protocol #4 – The Agent #2 – Alan Scott: The Green Lantern #4 – American Psycho #3 – Amorini: Amateur Cupid #1 – Avengers Inc. #5 – Avengers: Twilight #2 – Batman \/ Superman: World\u2019s Finest 2024 Annual – Batman and Robin 2024 Annual – Batman: Off-World #3 – Betty and Veronica Jumbo Comics Digest #321 – Bloodborne: The Bleak Dominion #4 – Bombshell and TommTomm #4 – Capable #2 – Carnage #3 – Charred Remains #2 – Cinderella: Princess of Death #1 – Cissy #3 – Coda #5 – Conan the Barbarian #7 – The Cryptidnals #5 – Dark Ride #10 – Dark Souls: The Willow King #1 – DC Power 2024 #1 – The Dead Lucky #11 – Dead X-Men #1 – Deadly Hands of Kung-Fu: Gang War #2 – The Devil That Wears My Face #4 – Doctor Who Magazine #600 – Drive Like Hell #4 – Duke #2 – Dust #6 – Dying Days #3 – Dying Days #4 – Edenwood #4 – Empath #4 – Fung Gi #3 – Greenhorns #2 – Grimm Fairy Tales #80 – Harriet Tubman: Demon Slayer #5 – Haunted House: A Love Story #3 – Hell Riot #4 – Hexpaw: Left Paw of the Devil #2 – Holmes & Houdini #1 – House of Slaughter Pen & Ink #1 – The Incredible Hulk #8 – Interstellar Dust #3 – Jack Kirby Collector #89 – Jill and the Killers #1 – Jungle Comics #25 – Killadelphia #33 – King Kong: The Great War #6 – King Spawn #30 – Leaded Gasoline #1 – Lilo & Stitch #1 – Local Man #9 – Manga Z #19 – Maniac of New York: Don\u2019t Call It a Comeback #3 – Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars: Battleworld #3 – Marvel\u2019s Voices: Legends #1 – Miguel O\u2019Hara: Spider-Man 2099 #5 – Moon Man #1 – Murder by Mail #3 – Omega Gang #7 – One Piece #1105 – ORCS!: The Gift #2 – Pathfinder: Wake the Dead #5 – Power Girl: Uncovered #1 – Power Rangers Unlimited: The Morphin Masters #1 – Previews #425 – Previews: Customer Order Form #425 – Project Riese #6 – Quest #5 – Rad Wraith #2 – The Ribbon Queen #7 – Rick and Morty: Maximum Crescendo #1 – Robotech: Rick Hunter #3 – Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac \u2013 Time Odyssey #4 – The Seance Room: Harry\u2019s Opus #1 – Sheena: Queen of the Jungle: Fatal Exams #5 – Sidequest #4 – The Sire: Lost in Time #3 – Sirens of the City #6 – Somna #2 – Spectrum: The Worlds of Gerry Anderson #2 – Spider-Boy #3 – Spine-Tingling Spider-Man #4 – Squish and Squash #2 – Star Trek: Picard\u2019s Academy #5 – Star Wars: Doctor Aphra #40 – Syphon #3 – Titans: Beast World #6 – Trinity Special #1 – Tuskers #1 – Tuskers #2 – Undead Evil #1 – Vanity Remastered Edition #2 – W0rldtr33 #7 – Wolverine #42 – Wonderland Child of Madness #3 – Working Class Wizards #1 – If you click on a product link on this page, we may earn a small affiliate commission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
