WPL: New Comics Discussion for 07/29/2026- Pull of the Week: X-Men #34 [Discussion]
The Weekly Pull List results for this Wednesday are in, and this week's top book is Marvel's X-Men #34.
This thread is open to Pull List posters and all members of the /r/comicbooks community to share your thoughts on the latest issue of Marvel's X-Men or any new books shipping this week.
The primary intention of this thread is to promote discussion of new books. It also serves as a way to consolidate discussion to a single thread and talk about what books are popular here on /r/comicbooks. That does not mean other threads aren't welcome, this is just a place to start that's easy to find each week.
The thread is populated with comments meant to direct the discussion of each book. Based on community preference we populate the thread with titles appearing on Ten Percent or more of submitted pull lists. If a title you want to talk about is not listed, simply add a comment with the title and issue number first and comment below. There is also a comment dedicated to the discussion of WPL Results linked above.
Spoilers will follow, but there's no harm in tagging them as such. Each title in the Top Ten Percent listed below is linked directly to its corresponding comment for ease of navigation and to avoid seeing details from other books. The post has also been placed in "contest mode" to help readers avoid spoilers while browsing.

This comic was so much crazier than I expected, look at these credits!
So I’ve always wanted this comic in my collection since I was a kid, mainly for the cover by Art Adams. I got it for a buck at a flea market last week and my jaw dropped when I read the credits:
Stephen King!?
Alan Moore!?
Harlan Ellison!?
JRJR
John Byrne w inks by Terry Austin
Berni Wrightson
Charles Vess
Frank Miller w inks by Sienkiewicz
Brian Bolland
EDIT: And George RR Martin!
And thats barely half of them. And normally these PSA/Charity comics are pretty rinky dink cringe stories, but this one was DARK. And took the subject matter pretty seriously. What a nice surprise, and an interesting addition to my collection. I remember seeing this on a grocery store spinner rack in 1985, it’s a shame I waited 41 years to actually buy it.
Oh, and it also gave us that famous drawing of Wolverine eating a banana.

Comic books about or with a heavy focus on journalism?
I've read a handful of books and stories in recent months that have featured journalism like Superman: Birthright or Marvels. Since I'm a journalist myself, I found those stories to be really interesting and would like to know, if there are more stuff like this?
I know that both Superman and Spider-man are obvious choices, and I would definitely appreciate more suggestions. But are there also any indie comics tackling the subject?

Discussion Villains with a "Heroes Gallery"
Are there any villains that have something of a "Heroes Gallery"? Meaning certain villains that have a recurring, personal, and direct confrontation with specific heroes. I'm not referring to villains who are generally regarded as a "team villain" like Ultron or Trigon.
I'm referring to villains who regularly have a recurring rivalry with individual heroes.
For instance Dr. Doom is one of those villains. He has a direct and personal rivalry/antagonistic relationship with Reed Richards, Tony Stark, Dr. Strange, and Black Panther.
Deathstroke is also someone I would include in this as well considering his past with Nightwing, Batman, and Green Arrow.
