My Pull List for Week 10 of 2021

This week I only grabbed 8 issues and while I have picked fewer issues the past couple of weeks, I’ve enjoyed them just the same. We’ve got a bit of everything this week. Some number ones, a few finishing story arcs, and some good continuing series…something for everyone.
