My Pull List for Week 10 of 2022

This week we’ve got 5 brand new number 1s and some good continuations. The Good Asian is reaching it’s finale and things are getting really good; Buffy is still dealing with the loss of her powers in Buffy the Last Vampire Slayer; and Elvira and Vincent Price head into a slasher film. So much fun this week!

I’m still hating the new Amazon process but I suppose getting to read comics on my Kindle is a benefit. I still want the old way of purchasing back.

Anyway, here’s what I pulled this week…
