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!

No, not because I dislike dwayne, but his charecter trope is obvious super swole "badass". Superman is more tough built like a tank, country guy/nerd. Put him in some civies and he blends, put him in the suit and you recognize oh, he's gonna beat somebody up.
Put Dwayne in normal clothes, and he wont blend, he will just look like a rock with glasses.
iirc clark kent had like the same physique but such a personality you wouldn't think much about it.
Also the whole, "I must always be a clear winning badass" clause with dwayne might constrain writers or pressure them. Never showing any weakness or "loss".
Nowadays, we like Superheroes thay have a backstory, some weakness, makes them "human" (even if superman, isnt) might be as simple as not great at cooking or shopping.
