Comic Book Wednesday: April 29th Picks

Happy Comic Book Wednesday!

My list is short this time and the only thing new on it is a special issue of Steven Universe. There is something that I do wish was on my list and that's Scarlett Couture, unfortunately the comic book store is not carrying it. So, that means I'll have to pick it up in the trade edition when it becomes available.
