Can reading Comics become an Addiction?! Adding more and more new comics wanting to read more.. is this an addiction?

I'd like to see what people think about this.

Yes it can. Too much of anything is bad. The key is moderation.

Anything can be an addiction, I suppose. I see it as being nothing different from movies, TV, gaming, reading books, etc. It's just another form of entertainment.

Reading comics is just like taking drugs or drinking alcohol because it's so damn good.

Without a doubt! I was just talking about this at my LCS the other day...I've got too many comics to fit into the spot where I've been storing them, so now they need to spill over to somewhere else...but everywhere else is more like public family space, and the fact that I no longer have room in my personal space means that my addiction is going to become way too obvious!

Physical addiction isn't the same as psychological addiction.

Comics are definitely a drug. One day you pick up one random Batman comic book at a stand and flash forward a few years, you have an entire collection of them, thousands of comics from completely different series, writers and publishers.
