I usually love reading comics but with some I'm not sure if I can be bothered.

I have over 50+ Superman comics laying around, should I give them a read? Two are X-Men.

You know it defeats the purpose of having comics if they're not going to be read. You know that, right?

No, I'm saying I know people who stopped reading comics and only buy them to collect.

Yeah, But not reading the comic could leave the chance of It being terrible and thus not worth wiping your a$$ with.

Why would you buy a comic nowadays and not read it? It'll never have the value of the older comic books so you may as well enjoy them.

Ah I know which issues you're talking about now. I probably have some of them as I started reading comics in 2007.
