I never really got into American comics. The only ones I own are an X-Man evolution (?) one which was centered around the future Dairy's and I didn't understand a word of what was going on.. and another old old X-man one that was just plain boring.

I don't even like X-men, they're only one step up above avengers :/

X-Men are above the Avengers? You mean in preference, right? Not power?

Ellie, I approve. Dark Avengers is probably my favourite of the Dark Reign tie-ins, maybe because it's closest to the main story. That and, naturally, Deadpool's tie-ins.

In preference*.

I just don't like the Avengers, not sure why... The hulk and Ironman are some of my favorite heroes though :O

All time favorite hero: The Flash ;D

To be fair, the New Avengers aren't actually that powerful.

Dr. Strange is depowered now, so the current X-Men roster IS probably superior.

I read the comics in the newspaper...

I don't know why I don't go for comics, considering I've yet to see a movie adaption that I didn't like.

Oh if we're counting those then Calvin and Hobbes is my favorite by a milestone.

I suppose so, it's not necessarily limited to Marvel.

By the way, if anyone here is genuinely interested in getting into comics, I'll gladly help. Putting that out there.

Me too.

He was honestly one of the most powerful Marvel beings ever, besides the cosmic celestials or maybe even equal to some of the lesser ones. Out of all comics history, old-style Dr. Strange is/was one of the most powerful.

What comics do you read or, if you got into comics, WOULD you be interested in?

Which comics DON'T you like?

Why? (To either)

If comics interest you, why? If not, why not?

What got you into comics if you are a fan?
When I was a kid, I read a lot of comic books. Not the heavier kind, intended for people looking for something more than a couple of minutes of entertainment, but stuff like Donald Duck and Calvin and Hobbes(if those qualify?).

When I became a teenager, I read Spawn and Conan, but read less and less comics, replacing them with books(because I felt I got more story for less money :P)

Now I don't especially like them or dislike them, I just don't read them anymore. I don't really care about media format a lot, whether it be movies, games, comics or books, as long as I like the story, setting and the characters(which is why I don't give a damn if a game has loads of cutscenes, or a book comes with pictures or not). If I don't find the story and the characters interesting, I can't enjoy something regardless of its gameplay, written excellency or good artstyle(of course these add to the experience).

As it is, the comic books I have seen haven't seemed "catchy" to me, though I'm sure that a guy with a lot of knowledge(like you norrin), could probably point me in the direction of a comic catering to my taste.

As for comics I don't like - Well I'm not much into super-heroes(don't mind people with supernatural power though), private eye stories/noir stuff, standard fantasy or science fiction. I don't exclude any of them if the story is long, "complex"(don't read into that :P), has depth and tries to do more thematically than simply serve as a means of self-insertion for readers with social issues(not implying that the above are such).

You might say, that I would be interested in reading anything that doesn't fall into the above category.
If there is a certain amount of originality, perhaps a mix of genre's or mix of settings, I would be more inclined to look into to it. And no people wearing their panties on top of their pants :P
