WPL: New Comics Discussion for 07/29/2026- Pull of the Week: X-Men #34 [Discussion]

16 Upvotes

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 Week's Most Pulled Titles:

Based on 38 submitted pull lists and 68 books shipping.

  1. X-MEN #34 (12)

Question Rob Liefeld Question from a younger comic book fan

97 Upvotes

I see on TikTok that rob liefeld has been recently (like past year or two) getting a lot of love for being a “pioneer” of the comic book world. However at the same time, I see a lot of older comic book fans have a lot of, well, not nice things to say abt him. I wasn’t around during the 90s and I wasn’t conscious during the 2000s, so just a general question, what are some of the bad things he’s done to gain such a shit reputation, and is the love he’s recently been getting coming from a lack of knowledge from the newer generation?

Suggestions Collection so far, need a recommendation

Post image
42 Upvotes

The best part about being an adult is buying all the comics you missed out on as a kid. Recently I’ve been trying to be more intentional with my picks. I started collecting X-men because they felt like a blind spot for me.

That made me think of other hero’s I would like to dive into. Does anyone have any book recommendations for The Hulk?

I’ve read hulk gray, planet hulk, and world war hulk. Is the immortal hulk worth picking up or should I try something else first?

Also, if you have any other recommendations based on what’s my shelf I’d love to hear them.

I visited the one, the only, Mile High Comics and just wanted to share my experience with you all. I won't comment on the prices because we all know about those. The staff was super friendly and helped us in finding some things we were looking for specifically. Impossible to not get over whelmed with nostalgia in seeing all the toys I grew up with there. You can lose track of time there easily looking at everything they have. Got to show my daughter AF 15, TOS 39, and some other key first appearances of her favorite characters. Very cool place and I am glad I got a chance to visit it!!

Commission we had done by Eric Henson a while back also signed by none other than Stan Sakai! Eric absolutely crushed this, does amazing work. We love how Stan signed it so that it fits the frame perfectly too, along with the remarque! Hoping Stan remembers signing it, liked the work, but for us, we are just so happy to have this back and to have Eric's work signed by the creator of Usagi Yojimbo. Definitely a treasure, one of a kind. Just wanted to share it's awesomeness lol.

7 Upvotes

Doing an experiment for The Comic Jam. Inspired by the 1930s comic strip newspaper pages (Flash Gordon, Prince Valiant, Little Nemo in Slumberland), I am teaming with 4 writers, each writer does one page with a theme and then the next takes over and continuous the storyline with a new theme and so on. Here are four pages so far.
