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.

The early-’70s Green Lantern/Green Arrow series (technically just Green Lantern) changed comics to a certain degree. A conservative, old-school hero (GL) vs. the modern hippie-style liberal (GA). They traveled across America, dealing with the problems that were plaguing our society.
Why would Green Arrow, a billionaire, be a communist?
He inherited his money, didn't earn it, and had a life changing experience with a bunch of monks that saved his life and became an activist and humanitarian.
Green arrow is actually the version of batman that's doing the most good in the world.
Because robin hood steals from the rich and gives to the poor.
