I had to cut back my comic book spending considerably to just a few books and I had to cut Gotham Adventures and Superman Adventures. PPG, Green Arrow, and the JL aniamted comic are the only DC books I am getting now. Man, that was painful to make all those cuts I made (not with just DC) but where I was spending about two hundred dollars per month on comics, I am down to about sixty or so.

Seeing the quality of B:GA's over the past few issues, I can understand why you'd cut it. But why not just finish getting Superman Adventures? It's only got a few to go...

If I feel the need, I am sure I can always pick up the Superman Advs back issues from Mile High when they do one of their inventory blow out sales and actually save good money.

You know, over the past 10 or so years I've had comics pulled for me, the animate dones were really the only mainstays. Only a fe wmonths ago I considered dropping them and going MARVEL, but DC has pulled me back in. The past three weeks of SUPERMAN titles has blown me away. I can't wait for ACTION COMICS, BATMAN, and GREEN ARROW this week.

For some reason I've never cared for Marvel. Anyways, the only 2 comics I get on a regular monthly Basis are B:GA and Harley Quinn. I plan to start getting Catwoman and JL Adventures in NOV. I occasionally will pick up some of the other Batman and Superman titles, especially Detective and Action.

I read Green Arrow of course, originally for the love of the silver age, and then for the love of Kevin Smith and Phil Hester (AFTER I bought the Clerks collected edition comics) and I read the Superman books, and Gotham Knights and occasionally Batgirl, but my fav book has always been JLA. And the last few months have been no exception, their very movie like I think lately. No one is reading it?!? Someone must, its DC's top book...or was before Kevin Smith popped this fantastic Green Arrow storyline in there.....man oh man, can't wait for wedsday, that last panel of issue #7 was for some reason a big shock to me. Even though I get it now, hehe.

I've never really got into JLA but I heard people say that it went downhill after Morrison left. It's pretty good, tho, huh?

Not really. It was good but now we're just getting mediocre MARK WAID stuff. I am a bit optomist when Joe Kelly hops on. I may add the book back onto my pull list instead of getting it if I have the change. I've been hooke don SUPERMAN for the past 3 weeks. The material that ahs been produced in the past 3 weeks of SUPERMAN titles has been unbelievable.

I only buy about 10 comics.... a year. It takes me under a half an hour to read them...and I can't imagine spending $3 on a comic that could be crappy (which all of the ones I've been buying lately have been..last good one was BB #23)...

I haven't been liking JLA as much recently, but the cliffhanger at the end of JLA #57 has me hooked. And Joe Kelly sounds like he'll have some awesome stuff coming for that title.

And BB? What comics DO you read? Maybe it's just me, but I hate it when people just complain complain complain. I hope that it's just you've been buying bad comics, and not that you're being too critical. Yes....fear my wrath... :D

Okay, that last part could've been left off...
