Comic Book Wednesday: August 15th Picks

Okay, I love comic books but I feel like the industry is not doing as well as it should. There are still more people watching the comic book/superhero TV shows and movies than reading the books. I do wonder what would make a difference in getting more TV/movie fans to give the books a chance?

Anyway, here is my list for today. It's just my group of regulars and even though it's not on my list, I have to pick up Suicide Squad #45 since it's tied into this current issue Aquaman.
