i dunno about then but i knwo now its massive price increases on books that are way too heavy on ads for crap and other books and nto enough pages dedicated for the sotry itself and the fact no book seem to have their own individual storylines......everythign is a giant retconnign cross over that you ahve to buy all the sidebooks, main story line book and each title of every book to get the full story. i miss the 80's when comics rarely crossed over like they do now and books held their own stories.

Now the only comics i read are Dead @17 by Josh Howard, and Lenore by Roman Dirge. I also just picked up the 4 issue Alice in Wonderland Mini Series based on the original books. |

Thats why i gave up Transformers comics. story started to really suck, the art sucked harder, and then you had to buy all the one shots that sucked too.

i think what kills comics or killed them is the fact that they over develop a character and stick other characters on the back burner because they dont know how to make them interesting. they take characters that are interesting..and just keep going and going, sometimes the go a little too much and ruin them.. i.e whats happening to daredevil. and then to correct it all, the make up some bullshit invasion story or, it's all in some little kids dream orb and wasnt the real universe. they should step outside the box and develop other characters that just sit around and do nothing.

I started reading comics around 86 or so and read faithfully to about 2003, spending around $80 a week. what killed it for me?
1. I deployed for 6 mos and didn't feel like catching up. 2. the stories were the same thing year after year, a character gets "killed" for a year then returns. It seemed like nothing was ever resolved. 3. increased cover price and less comic, when half the book is ads, I can find other things to do with my money. 4. started getting into other things, money was better spent elsewhere. 5. The stories sucked 6. The titles I enjoyed got cancelled or indefinately delayed I also don't think its fair comparing the American market to the Japanese. the have a whole different culture. Their toy/comic market is aimed at adults and collectors, their animation is aimed more towards adults too. |
