I have found out that there are other Teenagers on Comic Vine, but I have not seen a thread for teenagers. So I thought I would start one.
To start off the conversation lets talk about favourite book at the moment.

@veshark: What is Millar like a a writer? I've never read anything of his, but i have seen kick-ass and it was pretty violent. Apparently there is heaps of violence in his writing.

He's one of those writers that when he's good - he's great. And when he doesn't give a crap, he blows.
Look at Millar's run on Ultimate X-Men, the Ultimates, Red Son, even the Authority. There's his trademark summer-action blockbuster violence, sure. But he's balanced it by actually writing ambitious stories and layered characters. It's not all superficial eye candy. There's an actual substance to his writing here.
But then look at stuff like Kick-Ass, Nemesis, or Wanted. Where he's eschewed an engaging story for just heaps of mindless violence as entertainment. Where it tries so hard to be ERMAHGERD BADASS but instead comes across as trite and corny. It's books like these that give Millar a bad reputation as a shock value writer.
Yooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! @yourneighborhoodcomicgeek@comicstooge@dondave My fellow teenagers! Let us commence!
hey guys. I like deadpool, spawn, thunderbolts, batman, and superior Spider-man. and usually i'll read avengers sometimes. same with justice League and some other DC comics.
Currently reading New Avengers, Thor: God of Thunder, Avengers, Savage Wolverine, Daredevil, Origin II, Hawkeye, Green Arrow, Batman and Robin, TMNT, and Samurai Jack.
Hello everybody, didn't realize how many teens there were here. Anyway I currently love G K Chesterton's Father Brown stories
@veshark: I pegged you as in your 20's, Battle Guy.
I'm too old for this thread. Much too old.

Ehh, you're not too far-off, I'm nearly there.
I'm too old, but want to say, the teens on this site add a lot to it. When I was a teen, many years ago, always felt teens that read comics had a different level of maturity (despite the immature image of comics), and seeing folks like Veshark, Wolverine08 and Jphu here, makes me know that has not changed over the years.

Thanks for the kind words man!
I'm 17, currently reading Bendis's Daredevil run and Brubaker's Captain America run, and trying to get caught up on Invincible.
I'm 18 (19 tomorrow) and currently read Thor God of Thunder, Origins II, Superman Unchained, Batman and Action Comics. Looking to widen my pull list in due time!
I guess I'm still a teenager even though I'm on the cusp of manhood when I turn 21 in June. Currently I'm reading Sam Harris' The End of Faith and am really enjoying Harris' treatise thus far. An accessible and bold assertions have been made to say the least. As for comics, I've just finished Batman: Year One which was really awesome (though it's the only Frank Millar book I was willing to read) and am about to start Silver Surfer: Judgement Day. I'm also reading Superman Unchained, Thor: God of Thunder, Wonder Woman and Indestructible Hulk.
Yooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! @yourneighborhoodcomicgeek@comicstooge@dondave My fellow teenagers! Let us commence!
I'm 15 now, so I'm pretty sure I'm your elder Wolverine08. Stooge and dondave are both older than us though.
