My Pull List for Week 12 of 2022

A bunch of new number ones that look cool this week including Stranger Things, Count Crowley, Ghost Cage, and what sounds really cool…Godzilla vs. The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

Now, to protect the people she loves, she’s going to have to take a crash course in monster hunting. And quickly-a vengeful vampire just booked a first-class flight into town. “A love letter to 1980s horror kitsch, Count Crowley: Reluctant Monster Hunter #1 is the Lois Lane/Jessica Jones mashup that you didn’t know you needed.” -Newsarama
