Comic Book Wednesday: 17 books on my to read list

Good Morning, I thought I would post my CBW list early today.

I'm sure by now everyone has heard about the Catwoman series is getting a new writer, a female writer. There is currently a female writer on the series but she will be leaving to write for a new series that will start in the fall.

I really do hope DC Comics is being sincere about hiring more female writers and not just doing this as a way to get away from all of the negative press that's been hounding them since the New 52 launched.

Anyway on to my Comic Book Wednesday list, this will be the last issue of Daredevil I will get in in single issue. For now on I'll pick it up in trade.

The "highly anticipated" Grayson is out today, I'm going to pick up the first issue to see if it's any good. Anyone else think the cover is really ugly? Hopefully the new Helena Bertinelli will still be an interesting character.

Anyone else going to be picking up Grayson this week?
