My Latest Pull List – December 5th, 2012

Weekly comic books are a big part of my life and below is a list of what I’ll be picking up this Wednesday along with cover artwork and previews courtesy of Comixology’s Pull List app.

A somewhat lighter week with seven new books.

• ALL NEW X-MEN #3 – Issue #2 built on a solid start to Brian Bendis and Stuart Immonen’s new X-Men series. As much as I’m enjoying it, I’m not into double shipping in general and three issues in four weeks is really pushing it (especially with seven weeks between issues of Uncanny Avengers by contrast). 
• AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #699 – Pretty amazing revelation last issue that I managed to avoid before reading the book. With two issues left, it’s great to see something intriguing happening to close out the series at issue #700.
• AVENGERS #1 – I’m trying all of the Marvel Now titles, but the vast majority aren’t books I’m going into expecting to stick around. I’m not a die hard Avengers fan, but I followed them more through the Bendis era than any other time. I’m still on the fence than most with this latest Avengers series, but Jonathan Hickman is usually great so there’s a good chance I’ll read beyond #1.
• CYBER FORCE #2 – After a great start comes another free issue.
• THUNDERBOLTS #1 – This could be crazy. Love all the red. Great promos. Red Hulk, Venom, Elektra, Deadpool, and the Punisher on that Julian Tedesco cover look great. Not sure about Daniel Way and Steve Dillon though… 
• X-FACTOR #248 – Continues to to be rock solid. Needs more Leonard Kirk.
• X-MEN #39 – Way behind. Holding out for the finale.

Check back every week to see what’s on My Latest Pull List and please share your thoughts on these titles and everything you’re reading this week in the comments.
