The comic racks are full this week, so get ready to ante-up that paycheck with some definite crowd pleasers. Marvel wins out this week with a strong showing.
The DC comics in the pull list are more just story arcs I’m following, but nothing serious. I’m still on-board for Green Lantern. As I’ve said on countless occasions, I follow most - if not all - Geoff Johns books. After issue 28’s reveal of a Green Lantern gone RED, I’ve opted to remainon stick around for the ride.
First, don’t beat me up, but the Black Panther has made his way back on the comic books pull list for March 26. Why? Well, first there back in Wakanda and the whole frog alternate reality nonsense is over, albeit being briefly mentioned in an otherwise awesome Annual. Second, the cover is pretty sweet. So, I’ll check this one out.
Be sure to check out New Avengers #39 - the Secret Invasion is here. Let’s see if it’s all it was hyped up to be.
X-Men Legacy is an easy buy - Nuff Said on that.
