Comic Claim- August

My friend and I went to a local comic shop for the first time a couple of weeks ago. It was a spur of the moment adventure so we didn’t have much in the way of money to spend. Luckily the shop had a dollar bin for odd bits of issues. Sadly, we only had time to look through the bins, but I found quite a few! Not all first issues though.

What I found

Top, left to right:

The Wicked and the Divine issue 20 by Kieron Gillen, Jamie McKelvie, Matthew Wilson, and Clayton Cowles

The Wicked and the Divine 1831AD issue 1 by  Kieron Gillen, Stephanie Hanz, and  Clayton Cowles

The Wicked and the Divine issue 22 by  Kieron Gillen, Jamie McKelvie, Matthew Wilson, and Clayton Cowles

Bottom, left to right:

Tank Girl- Gold, Jet Girl Special issue 3 by Alan Martin and Brett Parson

Serenity Rose issue 1 by Aaron Alexovich

Princeless- Raven: The Pirate Princess issue 8 by Jeremy Whitley, Rose Higgins, and Ted Brandt

Tank Girl- Gold, A Tank Girl Primer by Alan Martin and Brett Parson

I haven’t gotten to reading them all but I did read Serenity Rose, so i’ll post about that one soon! 

On the topic of only the one being a first issue: I like the idea of dollar bin finds leading one to discovering a series they would otherwise pass up. So as I read the other finds, I focus on if the series is worth continuing while understanding there are aspects of the plot I wont get. That disclaimer aside, I look forward to reading these.
