Wednesday Wall Climb – 1/9/2019

Your Wednesday Wall Climb

Let’s face it, Wednesdays are great days. New funny books hit the wall and dreams get created and extended. New favorites bubble up and classics (hopefully) keep chugging along. Here is a list of books purchased 1/9/2019.

Young Justice #1 Putri Variant

Young Justice 1 has the first appearance of Teen Lantern and the 2^nd appearance of Ginny Hex. Ginny Hex’s 1^st appearance was Batman #4 Walmart 100 page giant. I chose the Yasmine Putri Variant because it is (IMO) one of the better covers for the book and even though it is not a first cover appearance since there are three (out of eight) covers that have her on it. The only cover that might be better is the Superboy Jimenez variant but another customer that I see there often seemed really bummed about it missing it so I gave them mine.

Look for Young Justice TPBs to read more!

Harley Quinn #57 Tedesco Variant

This book was being talked about for a couple weeks. Cho typically has been doing the virgin variants for this book so the change may have brought the heat that this book is seeing. A first appearance of a new character in Harley Quinn’s story probably hasn’t hurt this book either.

Look for Harley Quinn TPBs to read more!

Green Arrow #48 Adams Variant

I saw this was sold out at midtown and I usually don’t base my purchases off of that but in person this Neal Adams cover looks great, just had to grab one. This one is going into the PC and maybe up on the display wall.

Look for Green Arrow TPBs to read more!

Murder Falcon #4 Pantera Homage Variant

What can I say? I love Pantera and Murder Falcon has been a great read so far.

Curious about Pantera’s music?

Bully Wars #5

My son was really into Skottie Young‘s I Hate Fairyland so I pick this up for him to read to him before bed. He likes fine but I am not into this one so far.

Grab a TPB for I Hate Fairyland!

Winter Soldier #2

1^st appearance of RJ (contested or not) has this book seeing $14-$20 shipped. I think that makes it worth picking up.

Amazing Spider-Man Vol.3  #9-15

Saw these in a bundle at my LCS and picked them up because in the Spider-Verse there are a lot of firsts here:

Issue #9 (pictured) – 2^nd app of Spider-Gwen (undervalued)

• 1^st time Spider-Gwen, Silk, and Spider-Woman appear together

While this seems trivial it might become important as more news of the Spider-Women movie comes out. Currently it looks like the masses have chosen Spider-Women Alpha as the go-to book and not ASM #9. The significance is the potential movie title and all three potential main characters on the cover of Spider-Women Alpha. It is also the first time they work as a team to take down a villain. While there is some debate as to which ladies are in which books, let me clear that up. Earth-616 Silk, Spider-Woman and Earth-65 Spider-Gwen team up to battle evil Earth-65 Cindy Moon and Jessica Drew in Spider-Women Alpha.

• 1^st cameo of Solus (father of the inheritors)

Issue #10 – Marks a 1^st App of Spider-Punk

#11 – Delivers the 1^st App of Solus

#12 – Presents the 1^st time Leopardon (a robot piloted by Spider-Man) appears in comics

#14 – Unveils the 1^st cameo of Web-Slinger (Old West version of Spider-Man)
