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.

I read comic books mostly online finally I bought a comic book. I chose my first comic book Superman because ,I forgot the comic book name but Superman is a child who breaks the mirror in frustration. After a day when he is resting on his father's lap, he says: "When you break something you are not just breaking things you are like hurting every one who made it in that way"damm that line makes me love Superman.
Enjoy the book and the hobby! That is a great series.
You might be loving Grant Morrison more than Superman ;) I don't know, though, didn't read a lot of Superman. Morrison is quite the rabbit hole though, if you're ever feeling adventurous
All-Star Superman! That's a very good one to start with.
An amazing first pick, I hope you love it as much as I did.
I'm afraid I shall oppose you.....superman!
puts on the Batman mask
After this fight, there'll by one more superman who's never gonna walk again!
stumbles down the stairs
I couldn't see where I'm going. This mask really restricts my field of vision.
Great pick.
I've grabbed a handful of these compact editions as they hit a sweet spot of content and price, so you can dish them out to people who might be interested.
