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'm keep noticing Saga covers at my local comic book store. I hadn't heard of it before, but people seem to like it. Does anyone here recommend it? And also, is it the kind of universe that you have to get way into, or do you think I will be able to pick up the first collection enjoy that by itself?

It's one of the best comics out right now. I've been reading it since it came out, it should go for ~104 issues. Awesome space opera about love and war and family and everything in between. Very funny and at times, very sad.

Holy shit. That's great news! I fell off about 25-30, but if that's the case, I'll be picking right back up asap!
