So here I sit. Just about an hour after getting out from seeing Avengers Age of Ultron, and about an hour before the one store I go to has there FCBD midnight release. I was going to put up a spec list. I saw my buddy Dakoit over at Dakoit’s Comic Book Speculation blog had a great one up. So here are his picks of the weekend for FCBD:
There will be a total of 50 books for FCBD tomorrow, and while everyone’s pick may vary, here are mine, qualified with reasons.
