Hello Chums,

I always place my favorite comic book cover first. This week I have have two favorites. Check them out.

This has been a great week. I've watched a ton of Tennis (the U.S. open) and read plenty of comics. Unfortunately the tournament is almost over but I still have comics left to read for the year.

With the real U.S. Open in full swing (Tennis, Yes!), I haven't read as many books this week. But check them out anyway.

So only 38 comics read this week. But that's okay with me.

Keep Reading Comics.
