Marvel Secret Wars; Don’t call it a reboot…but maybe it is
It's been the super secret plan of the Marvel staff for more than five years. It's been a glimmer in Jonathan Hickman's eye for even longer. But now, Marvel is joining the "big battle changes fictional universe forever*" trend with Secret Wars, which launches in May leaving carnage in its wake.
As announced at a press conference with Executive Editor Tom Brevoort and E-i-C Axel Alonso at Midtown Comics downtown location, as part of the eight issue Secret Wars event Secret Wars #1 and Secret Wars #2 by Jonathan Hickman and Esad Ribic, the Ultimate universe is folding into the 616 Marvel universe and "There will be only Battleworld," promised Tom Brevoort. Issue #2 will be a huge extra sized reference staking out the new world, which ties in to the teasers marvel released last fall.

Review: Fables: The Wolf Among Us stars a well-realized wolf in Sheriff’s clothing
It seems fitting that Fables: The Wolf Among Us is Vertigo's "first ever digital-first series" according to the publisher's website. If you can parse that distinction, meaning Vertigo has never before released a comic series in digital format prior to it's print debut, it makes a strange sort of sense that they chose this particular series to hold the title of first-ever first digital. Fables: The Wolf Among Us #1 is a comic series based on the popular Telltale video game series of the same name, which was itself based on the 14-time Eisner award winning series from creator Bill Willingham.
