Comic Book Wednesday: Aug. 26th Picks

My post is a little late but hey it's still Comic Book Wednesday.

The only thing new on my list is Over The Wall, the rest being my usual books. I thought the animated miniseries was interesting but I always felt as if more could have been added on. So I'm looking forward to picking this up.

I recently made a huge cut to my pull list because I'm going to be reading many of the series in the trade edition such as Cyborg, Black Canary, Marvel 1872, Justice League 3001, We Are Robin, and Robin: Son of Batman, just to name a few.

In a way it's kind of freeing to not have an oversized list.



Boom! Studios

Over The Garden Wall #1 (Subcription Wolfhard Variant)

Book: Over The Garden Wall #1

Description:

Airing last November, Pat McHale's Over the Garden Wall was Cartoon Network's first-ever original animated miniseries. We loved the eerily sweet story of two half-brothers trying to find their way home so much we published a companion one-shot that was quickly snapped up by folks who just wanted more of this world to experience. Now, we're expanding the world of Over the Garden Wall with McHale and returning artist Jim Campbell with a full-length story.

Issue #1 is set between episodes 3 and 4 of the animated series! Wirt and Greg are trying to hitch a ride out of schooltown but end up having to walk. Soon, they come upon two girls playing, and wind up having to keep them entertained so that they don't wake their giant father!
