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.
See our sister sites!

They do? I can't think of any popular web comic that doesn't also have a physical book of their comics or digital books with exclusive content.
I would imagine that they only started doing free, newspaper style strips because it was a good way to garner an audience when you're first starting. Publishing your work for sale to retailers and whatnot isn't easy and also costly; something a brand new artist isn't likely to be able to do until they get some notoriety.
Okey maybe i just follow the smaller guys
Can you recommend any good reads?
