my comic book pull list



Added a list on the sidebar of the current comic books I buy each month. In case you are curious as to which current comics I'm reading, or you want to bash my poor comic buying choices now you know exactly what I'm getting. You'll see I've made plenty of bad comic purchases in the past when I get to the "Image Comics of My Youth" posts. *shudder* For the most part, I do enjoy the comic book I've been reading (otherwise I wouldn't buy them).

You'll notice I tend to buy more Marvel comics. Mostly because I'm more familiar with the Marvel Comics universe. The whole Civil War/Initiative and soon to be World War Hulk story lines are getting a little out of control though. I wish a lot of titles would start being more self contained again instead of these huge story lines spilling into every title. It isn't as bad as the bazillion crossovers in the '90s, but they need to slow down with the number of company/universe wide story events.

On another note - yay, Art Adams Avengers covers!

When I was younger I ended up going with the DC universe mainly because I was more familiar with the characters and it had a longer history. But like any comic book fan I would look across to the other side of the fence often. (I guess I could have collected from both series, but you only have so much money when you're a kid with all the crossovers its hard enough to keep track of one company

Yeah, now days I really don't have a preference one over the other with Marvel/DC. I try to balance it out in terms of buying from both companies. I would get more, but at $3 each it starts to add up quick.
