Comic Book Wednesday: Sept. 30th Picks

I have a small group of books on my list this week and the only two new ones are: Wonder Woman '77 Special #2 and Cavalry: S.H.I.E.L.D. 50th Anniversary.

I really have to say this, the cover for Superman #44 is just hideous. I am not a fan of John Romita, Jr.'s artwork. It always looks awful and for some reason he's touted as this amazing artist but every time I see his artwork it never looks good.
