With the events of Convergence over, and Secret Wars going full speed ahead, there's been a lot of comics talk. Everyone has been debating the quality of new comics. The fact is, this is a site called comicbookmovie.com. Most everything we talk about is based on comics.
Now, let's be honest. Whether we like it or not, modern comics are going to have an impact on comic book tv shows, movies, etc. Of course, we know there are influences from bronze, silver, and golden age comics too, but modern comics are extremely influential. A great thing about this site is the fact that you can keep up with what's going on in modern comics without actually reading them. That's not to say that you shouldn't read modern comics, but anything you don't follow can be summed up in a short article.
There are multiple reasons some people don't read modern comics. Some feel that the stories are repetitive. Others feel that the comics reflect the movies too much and are basically just an advertisement for the movies. Then there are some who just don't have the money to keep up with many comics. They feel they are too expensive. Whatever the reason, it seems to have become normal for comic book movie fans not to read modern comics.
Personally, I think there are some great stories still being told in modern comics. The Flash New 52 run, Ant Man, Silk, and Chrononauts are just a few of my favorites. Now, my favorites feature DC, Marvel, and independent comics so I'm not trying to start a flame war here. I'm just interested in how the comic community feels about modern comics. How do you guys feel? As always, share your thoughts in the comments below. Until next time,
Petey!
