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.

It even has order instruction to order other comics by post. Also an advertisement for 50 free hours of AOL.

I found it pretty interesting, I was a teenager in the 90s and it was a bit nostalgic to see instructions on how to order comics by post.

I was working in a comic store when these came out. I think there are four variants and this lead up to Peter trying out four different superhero personas.

see if you can redeem that AOL cupon

90's Spider-Man logo is so nostalgic, it's just a blip in the franchise history but it always brings me back to pre-OMD when Peter was allowed to grow up and be a married man; he's not Peter Pan ffs.
