Good-Bye DC Comics!!! it's been real!

*myconius* · 04-03-2016, 01:23 AM

having been a loyal fan of DC Comics for years now i’ve been tolerant to so many disappointments, but lately they’ve been really pushing it!

but as Pop-Eye once said - “THAT’S ALLS I CAN STANDS, AND I CAN’T STANDS NO MORE!”

these mandatory one-shot tie-ins, mini-series, and cross-over after cross-over….

it’d be one thing if they were actually good? but poorly put together stories, and substandard art,
the quality at DC has gone right down the toilet!!!
(anyone who’s read DC’s ‘Convergence’ last year knows EXACTLY what i’m talking about.)
Convergence was supposed to be a real game changer, yet it accomplished absolutely nothing except duping all the long-time fans.

DC’s latest hoodwink of weekly comics has hit new lows as far as poor over-all quality!

which brings me to the final nail in the coffin - DC’s move to go Bi-Weekly with Rebirth.

while this is not new at all, the reality of a closing dead-line has forced me to make a difficult (yet logical) choice of dropping my DC books.

the bulk of the DC titles i was buying will now be shipping twice a month, not being able to afford this expense i considered dropping just a few books.

but looking over the solicitations http://www.comicbookresources.com/ar...numbering-more

NONE of it looks AT ALL appealing to me!!!!! i wouldn’t want to buy any of these pitches once a month let alone TWICE!!!

maybe i could have found just one or two books to stick with? but i know all too well they can’t help but screw things up!

so aside from a few creator-owned mini-series, the only two on-going comic tiles on my pull-list are (IDW) Tmnt and Tmnt Amazing Adventures. (and to think i almost dropped Amazing Adventures a few months back?)

it’s going to be weird not having as many books to read on Wednesday, but i won’t get duped into buying rushed substandard comics anymore.

oh well, at least i still have my classics to re-read?
