Ed Brubaker’s “Captain America” story continues its twists and turns, as we find out more about the man who looks like Steve Rogers.
Readers get another chance to catch up on “Angel” and “Anna Mercury,” as director’s cuts and auxiliary editions are released. And Dark Horse brings Indiana Jones back to comic books, with an adaptation of “Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.”
Full list and commentary after the break.

Here’s what writer Jason Hall (”Pistolwhip”) has to say about this:
It features the 75-page Official Hellboy Timeline written by yours truly (having
worked closely with Hellboy editors Scott Allie and Rachel Edidin and with
ample material provided by Mike Mignola and the rest of the Hellboy/B.P.R.D.
creative teams). And I promise you, between said timeline and the in-depth
Character Profiles also featured in the book (along with some new Mignola
artwork), your head is going to spin with the wealth of information provided…
A good deal of it never revealed before!
