Comic Book Wednesday: 24 books on my to read list

This will be one of my last big pile of comics that I will be buying. It got to the place where I was reading too many series and wanted to simplify. Not only will it save me some extra money it will also free up some space (I have to put those books someplace).

The ones that I crossed out I will now buy in the trade edition.

Anyway on to my list for Comic Book Wednesday, most of my list has my usual group of books with only two new books added on: Avengers Undercover #6 and Spider-Man Spectacular #1.
