It's a "fifth-week" Wednesday coming, which means DC Comics drops down to comics that are late, one-shots or "special interest". This Wednesday, that's Zatanna, Justice League Quarterly, Batman/Wonder Woman and Swamp Thing 1989 #1, which is 37 years late. And does rather leave the Fifty Most Anticipated Comics list to Marvel Comics for a change, with Ultimate, Armageddon-tinged Captain America and Wolverine, X-Men and Punisher before Skinbreaker, Gunslinger Spawn and White Sky make it in from Image, and we find out how Planet She-Hulk ends in a way it was never meant to…

The comic book website League Of Comic Book Geeks has a hundred-thousand-subscriber base, with over a hundred retailers using their services to manage pulls/subscriptions for their customers. The thing ComiXology did when they first started. The website also tracks how many readers have "pulled" certain titles, regardless of whether they are connected to a retailer or not. And right now, this is the top twenty pull list for Wednesday. Now, a "pull" does not equal a sale; it's just recognition of interest, and may be for a comic store, digital, or often pirate reading. The listing also does not include the variants' covers, as each cover has its own pull number. It may also be biased towards long-running series that people added to their pull list and never removed. However, it is a valid list that recognises active interest in certain titles in the direct comic book market. The Top Anticipated Titles This Week chart joins the Top Ten Weekly Bestseller List and the Top Ten Hottest Comics lists at Bleeding Cool every week. Does this match up with your excitement? Or is this just the internet?
