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.

This is still, and will always be, the correct response. It's been memed to hell and back (no pun intended) and it never fails to get a smile out of me, but the most impressive part is that if you're reading that story for the first time, it fits right in to the context and plot and never seems like a "jumping the shark" moment.
How Mignola managed that is frankly beyond my comprehension, and is a large part of what makes him genius
"Son of a..."
(Specifically, the time the kriegaffe snuck up behind him, just because I love that panel so much. Lemme see if I can find a link to that image)
Edit:
from Conqueror Worm. I just love the way Mignola uses black, and this is one of the best examples
He has eaten of the pamcakes.
He is lost to us.
Those three were some good dudes though.
No way! I don't like pamcakes!
How... how do skeletons drink? I mean... what happens to the liquid?
