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.

Couple nights ago I finished Locke and Key. Pretty solid, I’m satisfied with how it ended.
Monstress #54 came out a few days ago and continues to be great. I wish I saw this comic getting more attention than it does cause it rules.
My daughter and I are up to volume 4 of Witch Hat Atelier. Very cute, and I like the unique approach to magic in that world.
Finally, I have Pluto volumes 7 and 8 that I need to crack open. Volume 6 left on a bit of a depressing note.
I am catching up on Red Sonja, Conan, and X-Force. I planned to catch up on X-men this month, but my daughter’s dog ate chocolate and we have a huge vet bill instead.
I think I have a lot of Elfquest I have not yet read and if even I have read it all, I am due for another reread.
Just my weeklies as usual, and a regular book as usual.
Last thing I read was this week's Deadpool Team Up #1. I usually don't get into Marvel but I liked the old Deadpool 1st run and Cable Vs Deadpool, and Deadpool and Cable were on the cover so I gave it a shot.
It was OK, weirdly dragon-centric.
Hellboy is usually great.
Currently I'm reading Annihilation Conquest / Nova and Yokohama Kaidaishi Kikou. Manga and Western comics are pretty interchangeable for me.
