Did you see the new blue cover for God Country #1 3rd Print in your local comic shop last Wednesday? If not, or they were sold out quickly, here is why.

So many retailers didn’t get their full orders and didn’t know why. This begs the question, could God Country #1 3rd Print be the hardest cover to come by?  Continue reading “God Country #1 3rd Printing Was Allocated.”

I can say this week might be a bit more interesting than last, at least my pull list is a bit bigger so there’s that. With that said, let’s get on with the Poyo picks… Continue reading “Poyo's Picks of the Week for March 22, 2017”
