Comic Book Wednesday: 13 books on my to read list

Anything new on my list today?

Yes, Batman Eternal (which is going to be published weekly) and Shutter. The rest are my regulars. There was not a lot of books that interest me this week. There is one book I'm on the fence about: All-New Ultimates #1. I didn't include to my list but when I go to the comic book store I will check it out and if I like it then I'll get it.

So here is the rest of my list:
