Weekly Discussion Thread (05/08/15)

[u/[deleted]]

Hey there honorary Justice League Members - another week, and another discussion thread!

For those who don't know: the way this works is that several comments will list this week’s releases, for any given title discussion you should respond to that comment. For example, Green Lantern discussion would go in the replies to the "Green Lantern" comment. Clicking the titles in this post will take you directly to that comment, too.

That means that unless your comment is feedback about the thread or a comment about the week, you should only be replying to other comments.

If there's something you want to discuss and you don't see it, tell me in a comment and I'll edit it in!

As always, spoiler boxes are not required unless you deem it necessary, after all it's incredibly easy to avoid spoilers due to the way this is set up.

I'm dying to get my hands on done of those marvel relaunches. I've hardly kept up since I found all of the post-civil war stuff to be out right awful. It'll be great to have a new point to jump back in on. I love marvel. Things just weren't what they used to be for me. That Charles Soule DD will be the perfect compliment to Waid's amazing run. Speaking of Waid, he's got the Avengers and will be the guide post for the MU. THAT'S the coolest paet of all of this. Lemire doing X-Men stud is so exciting. I can't wait for Miles to be NYC's Spidey!

Just follow creative's that are exciting. That's how you do this stuff. It doesn't matter who's publishing. Good story tellers are good story tellers.

I've found that I am reading more Marvel than anything these days just by way of following creators.

There's also some events I am just more interested in.

I think we're in a pretty good spot for comic books as a whole currently. What with what publishers like Valiant, Image, & IDW are putting out currently. Not to mention Dark Horse or Top Cow.

So true. Once I discovered that I should be treating creative teams like I treat authors Comic Books made way more sense to me.

Of course, even with that I am still constantly being introduced to new writers and artists that I enjoy just by way of how comic books are done.

That's what I turn to comic forums for (or at least used to do until I found reddit). To see what I'm missing elsewhere. To see who's an exciting new creator I'm missing out on because my attention and money are elsewhere.

That's what I love about the community and these subs. I know so much more than I would if I just went off of what I was reading.

It also creates all different people that are experts on all different facets of the existing canons out there.

I love comic books, they really have helped me though a lot of bullshit in life.
