I was referred here by a friend from another forum.

I've been a comic book fan all my life, but only really became a serious collector about 2 years ago. I am still learning about different artists, writers, etc. and enjoying learning every bit of information I can.

I've got an interesting collection. Nothing too out of the ordinary, a few gems, and a lot of stuff from when I was a kid.

I wanted to post my inroductory thread in here, because I've always been a DC guy by heart. I have a severe immune deficiency, and when I was a little kid, I read Superman comcis because I thought it was so cool that he didn't get hurt or sick like I did, so he sort of became like an idol to me. I still love Superman as my #1 all time favorite hero, with Batman in a close second.

So, what can I say about my comic book tastes? Well, as I said earlier, I am still learning and exploring. It'd be hard to say what my favorite stuff is, because in all honesty I really don't know much. I'll say that the most recent 25 issue series of Captain Marvel (all about Genis, son of Mar-Vell) is probably my favorite series. I have read it 4 times all the way through, and love every aspect of it.

I am currently subscribed to these titles:

-Superman
-Batman
-Superman/Batman
-The Flash
-Gotham Central
-Ex Machina
-Astonishing X-Men
-The New Avengers
-Marvel Knights Spider-Man
-Marvel Knights Ghost Rider
-Iron Man
-All-Star Batman & Robin, the Boy Wonder
-All-Star Superman.
-The Sentry
-Zombie King

And I am frequently buying comics from different series' and trying to broaden my tastes.

Anyways, I'll stop blabbing. Just wanted to get my first thread out there, introduce myself, and say I look forward to some great discussions.

Megladon: Welcome!

And I'm right behind you in saying the last Captain Marvel series was fantastic! Is it my favorite... the jury is still out, but I think it's a close one. I got so tired of defending Crazy Marv, lol.

Again, enjoy your stay! I've been here nearly a year, and love it. But, watch out for that Stranger feller. He'll try to steer you away from phone-book sized coloring books! :D

Just ask MASS if he's yet come to terms with how great Cabin Fever and House of 1,000 Corpses are. That may give him/ya'll a clue.

And, no, I wasn't Jessica Drew when I was in the Axis.
