Comic Book Wednesday: February 8th Picks

It's another Wednesday and another week of comics, so what's everyone picking up? I have my usual picks this week but I did add the new Justice League of America. I forgot to add it to my pull list, I hope it won't be sold out by the time I get to the comic book store.
