Reinventing himself as 'Timmy Olsen, Irresponsible Blogger,' Jimmy moves to Gotham City and launches an investigation into who wants him dead, and why. Following a clash with his cold, business-minded brother Julian, Jimmy reunites with his sister Janie, a playwright and poet, and draws her into an increasingly complex caper involving a prank war with Batman, the mystery at the heart of an intergenerational family feud between the Olsens and Lex Luthor's ancestors, a remorseful villain called the Porcadillo, and an interdimensional jewel thief, Jixelle, fleeing a vicious alien invader hoping to marry and murder her"--Library Journal.

Reed and Sue Richards take Ben, Johnny and the kids on a year-long vacation through time and space. The plan is that they will only actually be gone from Earth for four minutes and, in their absence, Ant-man, Medusa, She-Hulk, and the new Ms. Thing stand ready to protect the world. In reality, the Fantastic Four fail to return from their vacation until an aged version of Johnny Storm flames into the Baxter Building claiming that the whole group will be dead if something is not done quickly.

Ezekiel Stane, the son of Tony's late business rival and archenemy Obadiah Stane, has set his sights, his genius, and his considerable fortune on the task of destroying the Stark legacy. What's worse, Ezekiel has obtained Iron Man technology, and he's every bit Tony's equal--except younger, faster, smarter...and immeasurably evil! Then, following the Skrulls' secret invasion, Tony's entire life has been torn apart. What could make Iron Man the world's most wanted? Tony's failing health has made the armor too complicated to pilot, and he has Maria Hill on his tail--not to mention his entire rogues' gallery, all after the billion-dollar bounty on his head! And things only get worse from there..."--Provided by publisher.

Clint Barton, aka Hawkeye, teams up with With ex-Young Avenger Kate Bishop, who has also spent time as Hawkeye, to intercept a packet of incriminating evidence, before the tape it contains makes him the most wanted man in the world.

"Reeling from recent events, even Hawkeye wants to know his new status quo. Who's with him? Who's against him? Who's trying to kill him, and why? And just when Clint's rock bottom couldn't arrive fast enough, his brother shows up. After a lifetime of bad decisions, Clint and Barney Barton realize they'll have to save one another-- if they don't kill each other first. But when Clown and the Tracksuit Draculas lay siege to their building, round one doesn't go well. Deafened and bloodied, will the Bartons make easy pickings for the Tracksuits? Ever seen Rio Bravo? The brothers Barton double down in a new kind of shoot'em up! Don't miss it, bro"--Back cover.
