Comic Books

A place to discuss comic books of all types, from old to new, Big 2 to indie, and everything in between.

Floppies, graphic novels, compilations, omnibusses (omnibusi?) are all fair game.

There is only one rule:*

Comic Books is a no judgement zone.

You can talk all you want about how Rob Liefeld is trash, Bob Kane is an asshole, or Frank Miller and Dave Sim’s politics have made them toxic, that’s all good.

If, however, another user is LEGITIMATELY a fan of something you don’t like, that does NOT make them a lesser person. Attack the art for being bad, not the person for being a fan of bad art.

* I lied. There are TWO rules... No piracy. Cover shots? That's good. Interior pages, in moderation? Sure. Full books? Links to pirate sites? That's how we get things shut down. :(

I'm not saying it's been a problem, because it hasn't been.

Is there really anyone that cares that much about superman? It's sorta hard to relate to an all powerful character. Especially when his weakness is supposed to be incredibly rare but everyone and their mom manages to get some.

The reason people like Superman isn't so much about the "super", but rather the "man".

Clark Kent is just a kid from Kansas trying to do the right thing...who just happens to have superpowers. People like Superman for the ideals that he represents. He's a champion of the oppressed, represents truth, justice, and a better tomorrow, and he's a friend.

I think it's more do we really need another superhero movie? And does it have to be the same 5 guys with a shuffling of different directors?
