Comic Book Wednesday: April 1st Picks

Happy April Fools' Day!

I must be a fool to continue buying Wonder Woman, especially since the quality of the writing hasn't improved. So why do I keep torturing myself by continuing to read this series?

The only thing new on my list is the first (#0) issue of Convergence, anyone else going to be reading this? Today the last issues of Batman Eternal and Futures End are out, was anyone reading either series?

Anyway, here is the rest of my list:

Convergence #0

Book: Convergence #0 (of 8)

The biggest story in DC history ties into literally every DC story ever told - and it all begins here. Kingdom Come, Red Son, Wild West Justice League, Captain Carrot and the Zoo Crew - all the worlds you remember can still be found on Telos. Everything matters. Every story matters.
