The TOP 15 New Marvel and DC Comics To Read and Order in November

Welcome back to Comic Book Yeti! I am your host, Jake West from Comics Academy.

Missed last week's list? Here're the basics:

• This is a list of currently pre-orderable titles you can find in Previews either online or from their monthly catalog. Ask a person at your local comics shop if you're interested in reserving titles in the future.

• If you want to order any of these titles, you can use the link in each entry for that issue and its previous issues and volumes. You can also find most, if not all, of these titles for sale online or digitally, but ask your local comics shop if you're looking for any previous hardcopies.

• The "New Readers" descriptions were taken directly from their first issue or trade paperback, so there are no story spoilers. The "Returning Readers" descriptions were taken from the current issue for people who have already read up to the current issues and want to stay up-to-date.

• Full Disclosure: Each entry on the list was decided by my own personal tastes.

• If you find this list in the far future, don’t despair! You can still most likely find all of these titles in trade paperbacks or digitally. And they won’t stop being great reads – that’s for sure.

• I also post photos of my weekly comics haul on Instagram and Twitter (@ComicsAcademyX). If you are interested in checking out more content from Comics Academy including video reviews, live comic creator interviews, comic community events and more, then click here!

• We will also be doing weekly lists for the top indie comics to order, as well as the best Kickstarters to back, and even new manga every month. There’s a list for any comics reader!

She must adapt to a new normal, but she cannot shake the feeling that something is dangerously amiss. Strange sounds escape at night while patients start to go missing.

In The Oracle Code, universal truths cannot be escaped, and Barbara Gordon must battle the phantoms of her past before they consume her future.

For Returning Readers (Possible Spoilers): Protecting the City Enduring's population of 20 billion aliens gets even harder when rookie Green Lantern Jo Mulein is thrust into the middle of a massive protest that's about to get out of hand.

One group will doom their world, the other must save it.

Thirty years ago, a band of heroes traveled beyond the borders of creation and killed the last living god, saving the realm of Cain Anuun from an apocalyptic army of the undead. The legendary companions became the rulers of their world and ushered in a new era of peace and prosperity. But it did not last.

Now the foul legions of the Last God march once more, laying waste to all of Cain Anuun and revealing that the aging fellowship may not be the great heroes they claim to be. With the world burning down around them, a new group of unlikely champions must band together and accomplish what no other has done: kill the Last God, once and for all. For Returning Readers (Possible Spoilers): Beyond the edge of creation lies the Black Stair. And beyond it, amidst the void, he waits. Mol Uhltep, the Last God. This is the tale of those who claimed to slay him, and the world they doomed with their lies.

With the wraith of King Tyr and Mol Uhltep hot on her trail, and the Last God's foul curse worsening, Queen Cyanthe must rally her surviving allies within the walls of the Guild Eldritch's newly restored stronghold, the Pinnacle, and convince them to join her on her quest to travel past the edge of creation once more and do what she could not 30 years ago: kill the Last God, Mol Uhltep, once and for all.
