Comic Book Wednesday: 12 books on my to read list

This is the count down to my last two issues of Superboy before I drop the series. Since he's being killed off and then replaced by a evil version I don't feel like continuing with the series. If and when the original Superboy (Conner Kent/Kon-El) returns then I will go back to buying it.

I'm really tired of what DC Comics is doing to the Super books, they are some of the worst comics out there right now.

Anyway, here is my list:


Dark Horse


Book: Star Wars #11

Description:

Princess Leia's stealth squadron is together again, just in time to fight for their lives. The Star Destroyer Devastator launches an all-out attack on the Rebel fleet! Meanwhile, Vader's secret agent realizes what it could mean to fail the Dark Lord. And, on Coruscant, Han Solo's luck may be changing-unless . . . well, unless it isn't . . .



Marvel



Book: The Fearless Defenders #11

Description:

A new status quo for Marvel's Warrior Women? Sounds like the perfect time for a field trip to New Amazonia! Secrets of Hippolyta's resurrection are revealed! And love is in the air for the Fearless Defenders!


DC Comics


Book: Smallville Season 11 #19
