Comic Book Wednesday: August 10th Picks

Good Morning!

It's another Comic Book Wednesday, what is everyone picking up this week? My list is a little small this week with only 11 books and there are only two new books: All-Star Batman and Superwoman.

As far as I know, All-Star Batman is the only Rebirth series that will feature Catwoman, however I'm not sure when she will show up. Although, I prefer Lois Lane without any superpowers (simply because she doesn't need any to make a difference) but I am interested reading the Superwoman series.

Here is the rest of my list:
