I blame this on lack of sex. See if Chuck Austen was writing X-Men , someone would be gettin laid and people would wanna know who and why ? Then they'd buy an issue and spend an hour dictating a response on how the very essance of " said " charactor has been tainted by Chuck Austen's vile sex pen.
It all adds up. Sales are falling...no Chuck Austen to buy his books and swear about how unholy he is. :p

whoa whoa. you're all reading too much into this. i'm moving to another state at the end of the month and i think it would be a real dick move not to tell the guys at the store so they keep ordering comics for me even though i won't be coming.

i think you're projecting.

What exactly were you doing in exchange for comics?
I know I'm immature.No need to tell me.

You could have said that at the outset.
Your first post sucks, 1/10.

You gave us a sentence or so, then left us to fill in the blanks.
More info would've been nice.

Yeah! I thought you were dropping all your titles because those bastards at DC killed off Kid Flash.
I mean, yeah, Bart's butt is cute, but it's notthat cute.

Ahh. Good point.
What's to be pissed about if you're only doing it because you're moving?

I say this every month and I still haven't done it.
If nothing else, maybe I'll just drop everything but Astonishing X-Men and Ultimates.

pfff...even if all you were doing was moving, you really should have made something up to make this thread more "worth it". i was expecting a tale of comic book woe, rivaling the journeys of homer and instead, you're just moving to the middle of nowhere.
betrayal hurts.

Only yesterday I realized I haven't been to my LCS in almost two months. I guess maybe I've lost the zest of reading comics, at least for now.

Ok, you just freaked me out. I opened the thread, and saw that it was February 7, and started wondering where I lost two weeks.

Yes. It probably would have been more intresting.
You could have ranted about the sorry state of comics these days.
You could have tld us ninja were going to kill your familiy next time they caught you reading comics.
You could have told us you were going to live on the moon.
You could have told us anything intresting.
Instead, we got a vague post and a few posts later a anticlimatic explination.

Only yesterday I realized I haven't been to my LCS in almost two months. I guess maybe I've lost the zest of reading comics, at least for now.
I haven't stepped foot in my LCS since last August and I don't miss it at all. Granted, I get all my comics online now, so...
Actually, I've dropped so many comics that it made going to the LCS and paying through the nose for bad service not worthwhile at all. I think I read less than 10% of what I read a year ago and it keeps going down. I forsee a day when I'll just drop comics entirely, they just aren't worth reading, they aren't worth the money and they're just... well... moronic. What I want in a comic just doesn't exist in a comic anymore.
