Every week there’s plenty of titles that hit your local comic shop. Maybe you’re having a hard time deciding which issues to pick up this week? Or maybe you just want to check out something that you’re not reading yet? Well, have no fears long box junkies…I am here to help you out with The Weekly Pull List. Every week I will give you a heads up on what will be the six issues that should be on the top of your stacks and pull lists this coming Wednesday. So, let’s start it off with The Weekly Pull List for the week of October 3rd!
AVENGERS VS X-MEN #12
-Extra-sized final issue! It all come down to this! The final battle-as the world burns!
This should be the no-brainer top of your stack this week. Let’s keep it real here.
UNCANNY X-FORCE #32
– FINAL EXECUTION nears its brutal finish! X-Force finally faces the new Brotherhood of Evil Mutants all together!
We’re nearing the end here guys. If you haven’t been reading this series, do yourself a favor and go pick up every back issue. You’re welcome in advance.
ANIMAL MAN #13
– It’s the story you’ve been waiting for: ‘ROTWORLD: THE RED KINGDOM’! Part one of a four-part epic in which the Earth has fallen to the Rot! Guest-starring Justice League Dark, Beast Boy and many other heroes and villains from the DC Universe!
I haven’t been a fan of much of DC’s New 52 but this is sure to be one of their best crossover story arc’s. Jeff Lemire has definitely brought new life to this character and it’s definitely going to be the best DC book out this week.
HYPERNATURALS #4
– Thinkwell, Bewilder and Clone 45 begin to discover just how deep Sublime’s scheming runs, as they discover the lone survivor of the cataclysmic event that seemingly wiped out the previous Hypernaturals team.
It’s a brand new story arc and definitely a perfect jumping on point for readers. If you’re looking for something new this one is definitely worth giving a shot.
DOCTOR WHO #1
– The Doctor is back! Welcome to a new, exciting era for everyone’s favorite Time Lord, as New York Times bestselling writer Andy Diggle pilots the TARDIS as the ongoing series architect.
So, I am not even a Doctor Who fan myself. But, this book is being done by Andy Diggle (The Losers) and Mark Buckingham (Fables), which means even I may have to check it out.
THIEF OF THIEVES #9
– Augustus’ troubled past comes back to bite him where it hurts – and Redmond’s son has to step up to the plate to keep an angry cartel at bay. Meanwhile: Cohen pushes harder on Conrad.
It’s a book written by Robert Kirkman. Of course you should be reading it.
