Comic Book Wednesday: April 24th Pick

I really wish comic books (and books in general) were promoted more. I know that if you don't actively seek out books, you rarely see any being advertised.

I don't understand why Marvel hasn't released commercials promoting Avengers comic books or comics of some of the many characters in the Avengers: Endgame movie. And DC Comics should be doing the same to promote the comic books of their characters in their movies and TV shows. It's such a wasted opportunity not to try to get more readers.

Anyway, what comics are you picking up this week? I only have seven books on this week's list with two new ones: Jughead: The Hunger versus Vampironica and Ghostbusters 35th Anniversary: Extreme Ghostbusters. When I go to the comic book store, I might see if there is anything else that I might want to read.

In the VAMPIRONICA universe, the opposite is the case, as it was the vampires who were the victors. So what happens when these two eternal enemies are brought together again? Whatever it is, it can't be good for poor ol' Jug and Vampironica, you can count on that much...
