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.

Wow, not the reboot I've been expecting someone to eventually do when scrounging around for something "new" to do. Re-watched it a handful of years back - it was both fun, and even more hokey than I remembered. Definitely has potential if reworked to be less... "80s family friendly."
If memory serves, the lead actor was only mildly relatable and mostly annoying to my young self, at the time. 🤷🏼♂️ Like, who the fuck wouldn't want to win a spot like that from an arcade game? (vs console, that is) Wasn't that "the dream" many of us kids shared back then?! He just minced about, complaining and fucking up the whole damn time. 🤦🏼♂️
