That’s a pretty childish list and there are no reasons given for many of the items. What’s wrong with Wildcat?

I admit I’m not the most versed in the DC Universe (a return to the Silver Age? Mister Mind eating space-time?), but I think at least one or two had a point on some of the more irritating things going on. No one may be forcing anyone to read/buy issues, but I know how frustrating it can be to see something you really enjoyed/loved/obsessed over change dramatically. On the other hand, comics (as far as I can remember) change up stuff all the time, so it’s not like MOST things should be unexpected.

Of course, I question the validity of someone who questions a little fan service here and there…

Brother: I hate Sam Kieth’s artstyle and storytelling, and even though I will buy anything with Batman in it, I did not buy the Lobo/Batman series. And if it slips into my pull file by mistake, I give it away, without cracking the spine.

Its. All. About. Sales. At the end of the day we vote with our dollars. We complain so much about Marvel & DC, but how many of us stop buying the stuff we claim we hate. We all enjoy the abuse and anguish…we’re a bunch of Peter Parkers (Myself definitely included!)

Sorry, this is a prime reason why comic companies DO NOT put a lot of stock into what internet posters say.

Stuff like that is why I stay away from the official company boards. Heck, I even stayaway from unofficial boards. Eventually, I might find a board with adults who actually want to talk about what they ENJOY about comics.

Not buying a book, or sending a series back like in the Amazon Attacks video, is a better way to voice displeasure. Yeah, a bunch of smacktards are going to change the course of a major company. It happens every GREAT once in a while, but not as much as the smacktard masses would have you think.

101 Reasons I hate the internet:

101 thru 3: Idiots are given a voice like no other time in history to pretend that their worthless opinions matter.

2: I have become one of those idiots.

1. “lol”

Ugh. It bugs me how these boards turn into pissing matches rather than fun debates about stuff that shouldn’t be taken that seriously to begin with. I mean, sure, we all get into it, but they’re comic books, after all…

Nobody is being forced to read DC comics. I like complaining, too, but why so much vitriol? There’s tons of good comics out there, why read something you hate? DC definitely can be criticized fairly, but some of these seem exactly like things other fans like. The Joker? Do the majority of DC/comic fans hate the Joker?

I do agree with the “too many crises” notion, though….
