I sympathise! The first Batman comic I ever read was the tpb for "Bruce Wayne: Murderer". I had no idea who this man in a strange blue robin-batman suit was... Oh, he's Dick Grayson? Isn't Dick Grayson Robin? And why is Barbara Gordon in a wheelchair? Who is that little girl all in black? And who on earth is Spoiler?!? I have a big thank you to comicvine too :-)

I was 11 year old when I read my first comic, Thor vol. 2 10 - The Dark Wars arc. I read at friend's house but wasn't my actual first comic, I only started reading when I was 13 and after many years (now I am 20) just recently I managed to collect the Dark Wars arc completely .

Batman:Knightfall

Thought bane raped him! :O

The first comic I remember reading was the Death of Superman trade, which my dad bought for me when I was 9 after he heard about the story on CNN (I think he secretly wanted to read it but he's much too macho to buy something like that for himself).

Glad im not the only one who had a awkward introduction to comics

I had a similar problem when I first read a Robin comic I couldn't make my mind up if he was Dick Grayson or not since I wasn't aware there being any other robin at the time and Tim does look a lot like Dick if you don't know much about comics,they never even called him Tim in it.So both Marvel and DC confused the hell out of me on my first times.

I started with Spawn when i was 7 years old. I freakin loved it and i've been collecting the comics series ever since.

I was six or something. When we were at my uncle's house my cousins gave me a German print of Deadly Hands of Kung Fu (I remember it had the cover of US #9). That was the moment I was infected.

Mine is from when Doomsday killed Superman.

My first was Death of Superman, My older brother had read it and he really hyped it up.

@wildvine: I've never even read that............also I forgot about this blog.........
