No major milestones or moments this week and only one new addition to the FCL database: Ultimate Surge. The Blood Hunt continues, Jonathan Hickman’s G.O.D.S. comes to an end, and new titles include Scarlet Witch and X-Men: Heir to Apocalypse.
Book of the Week – X-Men: Heir of Apocalypse #1 (Review score: 48 Points; 17 Characters). Apocalypse has left Earth behind to find his place on Arakko, but he has one final test for a dozen mutants. The victor will become his heir and continue his mission of making sure that only the strongest survive.
Hero of the Week – Spider-Man/Peter Parker (Review score: 21 Points/3 Appearances; 7.0 Pts/App). Spider-Man hits his highest score of the year and breaks 20 points in a week for the fourth time. This also marks his sixth Hero of the Week.
Antagonist of the Week – Kingpin (Review score: 6 Points/1 Appearance; 6.0 Pts/App). Wilson Fisk spent some time away from New York following his fall from grace in the “Devil’s Reign” event. Now he’s back and possessed by one of the Seven Deadly Spirits tormenting Daredevil. He earns his first Antagonist of the Week.
