My Pull List for Week 47 of 2021
This week, the two spin off series for the Black Hammer universe and the Something is Killing the Children continue and I am looking forward to seeing where they go. We also get a new title from Brian Michael Bendis and Stephen Byrne by Dark Horse Comics that looks interesting. For the most part though, I’m keeping up with series I’ve grown to enjoy so I expect more of the same enjoyment.
Anyway, here’s what I pulled this week:
