How can reading be no 1 most attractive and comic books are on the unattractive side of the list?

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I think it's collecting vs reading. I'm a lady and read comics, well graphic novels, I don't buy the individual issues. Half my bookshelf is graphic novels trade paperbacks. But I do not collect, trade, sell, I don't think of them like that, they are for reading and enjoying.

Collecting I can see as an unattractive trait because it's too close to hoarding.

Whew that was a close one. I started reading comics again a few years ago and only have been getting TPB or HCs. Who has space for boxes of singles?

If you're genuine: reading brings to mind books, and people might see books as intellectual but comics as geeky/childish
