TOP 5 COMICS TO BUY – 12/07/16: THE ATOLL, MOTOR CRUSH & JOSIE

by | Dec 6, 2016

Wednesday is almost here, and new comics are within reach. If you are like me, you may still have a stack of comics that haven’t been read from last week (or last month), but here is a list of new series starting this week, which I will be picking up at my local comic shop.

Like many readers I try to budget my purchases, which can become difficult with the vast amount of quality books being published currently. I have chosen to highlight five promising new titles to consider picking up this week.
