oh no. more digital peeps.
Hello and welcome. MU/DCU are the best.
OP
OP
I do love my physies but MU and DCUI are great services. I am ashamed to admit it but other than weekly floppies I do most of my reading digitally. unless an omni is just the right size which is rarely the case
Generally, I'm digital, unless hardcover.
This stuff just came in today.
Just about to head home from work, so will probably be more active in a bit, but a short intro:
Mostly into cape books these days. I'm one of those 90s kids who was indoctrinated by the X-Men cartoon and all of the popular X books. Still have a soft spot for mutants and have fallen in love with the Hickman run so far. Also have a soft spot for Spider-Man (however Dan Slott can kindly never touch the character again) and am an OG lover of the Spider-verse shenanigans, as my first floppy sub back in the day was Spider-Man 2099 (which, in retrospect, oooof). Love the less edgy takes on Batman. Have been satisfying my mandatory comics-lover pervy instincts (stay away, anime!) by collecting artgerm covers.
At this point, because digital makes it so easy I am basically consuming almost anything I can get my hands on in the subscription services, but would love to get more familiar with smaller publishers, creator-owned works and the like. I've been hanging around the thread checking out the suggestions here and there and have determined that you are all fine, upstanding and cultured members of society from whom I have much to learn.

Well, if you like Spider-Man and hate Dan Slott then there's the current Amazing Spider-Man series by Nick Spencer which is more or less a direct call out to the Slott era and a back to basics approach to Peter.
As for non Marvel/DC series, it would help if you shared some of your interests so we can tailor a list for you because otherwise someone's gonna try and suggest Saga or Deadly Class.
I generally only buy physical comics if I'm in a store. Since the whole Covid thing, I don't think I've been in a bookstore for 11 months or so (other than one trip for Christmas where I bought a D&D Annual for myself), so things have been thin on the ground. Also I figured I don't tend to read them, they just end up on the shelf as a backdrop. I'm inclined to read digital way more because there's only a few seconds between hitting the buy button and starting to read.
no one gets banned in these threads because we're adults
except my children but they're grown now

I just read some random OT threads to prove a point that everyone gets hate for controversial work and I think I'm dumber now.
There is a reason I never leave my watched threads.

you're a brave soul for posting all that in the DCEU thread. I pop in there occasionally and it's exhausting to read
Well, in this case, it was Snyder for JL. But I find that across every Watched thread I have, there's a certain acknowledgement that the general boards are horrible. In Star Wars, that's usually the backlash against TLJ/Johnson/Kennedy, but it's mirrored across Game of Thrones (DnD/GRRM himself), and other fandoms.
The same was true on the place that shall not be named when I was a mod. Most tend to think their personal fandom is the one that's most put upon and suffers in the Gaming and OT threads, but outside of recency bias spikes, it's pretty much shared. There's a threshold for action that requires the forum to turn against your fandom en masse that doesn't generally happen in terms of "I dislike a thing and its creator".
They're good folks! I loves them.
Do it!
This was one of my first books, would strongly recommend.
how the fuck are you one handing that beast
lol that's from google.
I personally rely on the official position.
why do you have a wall of popsDo it!

Don't have anything specific in mind. I'm catching up with Hickman's X-Men now so might try out Swords of X, although I should probably do a classic like The Vision (but I'm halfway through it already) or God of Thunder (already read it). I wanna try something real fat.

This one has been on my IST wishlist for years. One day maybe I'll bite.
fuck. that's awful vic. I've had a kidney stone before. absolute nightmare.
Do you two drink much soda, or you just got unlucky with other health stuff?
I think I have like 2-3 sodas a year and avoid salty stuff when I can, but I'm gonna chug some water in solidarity right now.
While I can't be certain, I believe it was because I drank a lot of Gatorade at the time. Gatorade, coffee, and not as much water as I should have. Needless to say, I stopped drinking Gatorade after that and haven't had an issue since.
I see. Water has always been my main drink. I avoid caffeine, juice, and all that. There's no drink besides water that I have on a daily basis. I'll keep it up, because that sounds so fucking awful.
I've been on a binge of buttered popcorn and pop for like two weeks now.
I don't know why I only started feeling this last night but it felt like my teeth were rattling around inside my mouth when I bit down and my pop felt practically acidic going down. Shit burned.
I can't have any tonight because I need to fast for blood work and I'm feeling big "what the fuck have I been doing lately" energy.

I've been having some gut issues so I almost completely cut out soda/processed/fast food and went from 2+ cups of coffee a day to caffeine free in about 1-2 weeks. It was shockingly easy and I have infinitely more energy during the day I wonder why I didn't do this way earlier lol.
