Every month, there is a wealth of new comics and comics-related product that hits our local comic book shops. While some of us may be able to afford to buy everything we see, the rest of us need to be a little more careful with what we spend our money on - especially in the modern economy and with the price of comics rising seemingly month after month. That's why CraveOnline has the Monthly Comics Guide, to help our readers gauge just where their money might be headed in the coming month.
What is worth checking out? What will give you the most bang for your buck? We've compiled various different sections that should pander to whatever type of reader you may be. First and foremost, we've got individual issues for those that collect the floppies from week to week. We're also introducing sections on collected editions, original graphic novels, and comics-related toys/collectibles. Hopefully there is something for everyone, and we encourage your feedback, so

Please not that all entries are based on the month's issue of Previews, the comic retailer's order guide. It's possible that some books will be delayed - or even canceled - but we will do our best to stay up to date.
Single Issues
Batman: Odyssey #1 (DC)
It's been a long time coming, but Neal Adams' return to Batman finally hits this month. He's promised to push Batman to his limits, and we have absolutely no doubt that Adams will disappoint. Batman: Odyssey comes out July 8.
Artifacts #1 (Top Cow)
Top Cow has one of the most interesting universes in all of comics, and those properties are all coming together for a massive line-wide event starting this July. Legend has it that when all the artifacts (The Darkness, the Witchblade, The Angelus, etc) come together, bad things happen. Someone, apparently, wants to find out. Artifacts #1 releases July 21.
