My Pull List for Week 34 of 2021

This week I grabbed a whole boat load of comics…so many in fact that I didn’t even include all of them on this list. I feel pretty good about them though and am looking forward to cracking them open.

I made a particularly large investment in Image Comics. It seems that nearly every series they published this week looked good and I had to give it a read. Hopefully they’ll pan out.

Anyway, here are the issues I pulled this week…
