Excuse the fuck out of me.
Some of us live in places where the only place you can buy comics is Barnes and Noble.
Some of us don’t like comics because of the decades of continuity, complicated multiple universes, and the fact that, while there is a huge amount of talent in the industry, there are countless comics that have been tainted by poor writing and artwork.
Some of us prefer films because it is more relevant to our interests.
Some of us don’t have the income or time to spare to enjoy comics.
You don’t need to have read the comics to appreciate or be a fan of a character.
This attitude of superiority from people who are “real fans” because they read the comics makes me rage so hard.
Maybe people would be more eager to read comics if comic fans were more inclusive.
Yeah, I know, it’s not like you can find them online or anything!
LET ME EMPHASIZE THAT FOR YOU
Yeah, I know, it’s not like you can find them online or anything!
- Yeah, I know, it’s not like you can find them online or anything!

- Yeah, I know, it’s not like you can find them online or anything!
reasons why this is dumb
- idk what comic fans YOU’RE talking to but we really aren’t all that inclusive
- don’t insult comics
- don’t say you ‘don’t have time’ to read a FUCKING BOOK because honestly that’s really sad
- if you don’t have time to read a book then you don’t have time to go on tumblr
- barnes & noble wtf go on amazon get that shit used
- wOW COMICS ARE SO **COMPLICATED** no they actually aren’t just pick a story arc and read
- you’ve seen one movie? wow great good for you but there is not that much you can learn about Loki from one or two movies
- the comics are better
- comics >movies
- the end
Wow, this post was good and now it’s shit.
If you like the movies, us comic fans would like it if you tried to read the comics as well. Don’t know where to start? Ask us? I’d like more people to chit chat comics with.
The multiple universes can be hard to follow but there are actually reading guides around to help you along.
like for Ultimate Reed Richards who is…something unspeakable now.There’s a lot of comic elitism but that’s because comic fans have loved the original medium for so long it’s kind of painful to watch people blindly become fans without wanting to explore the characters we’ve all come to love a bit more. Please understand, it’s not like we don’t want you to be a fan, we just want you to be an informed/educated fan. <3
