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.

My thought process is that I went to an inflation calculator and entered a dime in 1960 and it told me it would be 1.13 now. Here's a link: https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/. According to Duck Duck Go AI, a cup of coffee in 1960 cost about 34 cents, and a beer was anywhere between 10 and 25 cents. Coors was on the 20cent end, because it was considered premium.
Thanks for proving that AI doesn't work.
