Comic Book Wednesday: Sept 16th Picks

Happy Comic Book Wednesday!

A book that I hope will be at the comic book store is Payback, a new series by Dark Horse Comics that follows a repossession group of heroes who go after deadbeat superheroes who didn't pay their bills. It sounds funny.

Another book I can't wait to pick up is the special one-shot issue of Agent Carter, I guess that will tide me over until season two starts (not sure when that will be).

What books are you picking up this week?
