Comic Book Wednesday: July 23rd List

This is the last issue of Wonder Woman by the team of Brian Azzarello and Cliff Chiang, I'm still not super excited about the new creative team. I just hope they don't ruin the series.

But something I am excited about is the first issue of Storm. Yes, Ororo Monroe a.k.a. Storm finally has her own comic book. Can't wait to read it.

Anyone else reading Batman '66?  That's one of my favorite series. Reading it is like watching the TV show.
