Comic Book Wednesday: 23 books on my to read list

Another comic book series is ending today. I had no idea The Movement had been canceled. I really like that series, too bad it's ending.

So, far I enjoy reading Batman Eternal (I will post my reviews soon) but I'm not so sure I'll like the issue out today. I'm glad Tim be featured but so will one of my least favorite characters Harper Row.

Lets see what's new on my list: Miles Morales: The Ultimate Spider-Man, Futures End (DC) and the Original Sin (Marvel).

All these new books are ruining my budget, I'm just glad about that discount I get from my local comic book store. See it's good to be a regular. (You should check and see if your comic book store has something like that. It couldn't hurt to ask).

Anyway, here is the rest of my list:
