So I'm noticing a lot of threads that seem to deal with the topic of "what you don't like about comics today." This is nothing new or outstanding. In fact, it's to be expected. Not everyone likes everything, and it's often easier to talk about what you don't like instead of what you do. I have to say I'm a little different, though. Call me a glass half full kinda person, but I prefer not to dwell on things that I dislike. In fact, I don't think I can recall the last time I read a bad issue of anything. I just simply refuse to acknowledge the existence of "bad comics" and I have to say, I'm pretty happy with that, but that's just me.
The purpose of this thread is to see what everyone else likes about comics. The industry, the fans, what goes into you getting the full effect of a good comic experience in today's day and age. Forget about what you'd change if you were in charge of the industry, or if you were writing a certain character. Throw out the notion that everything was better back in the "good ol' days." Tell me what's good about today. In response to Nobody's "What Character Has Been Ruined For You" share with the world "What Character Has Been Made Perfect For You?" What author has recently stood out for you? What story arc has been astounding? I loved the mess out of Spider-man's Grim Hunt. Did Kraven justice, brought him back into the world, and still revered his Last Hunt. I don't want this to turn into a "list your favorites" thread, but more of a discussion of how good it is to be a comic reader today. I'd even be willing to take this thread a step further and try to compile a list of key things one must do to get the full enjoyment out of a comic issue.
So yeah, what's good?
What's Good?
