I Am Easily Pleased
The above statement is a statement of fact. I am ridiculously easy to please. Give me a comic book that doesn't say "Marvel" on the front and I'll probably like it. Hell, chances are I'll love it.
Case in point: Judd Winick. I know that a lot of people don't like Judd Winick's work. A lot of people actively despise what he does. That's cool and all. I respect that. But me, I've pretty much enjoyed everything he's done. There hasn't been a lot that's bothered me.
Take the last issue of the Outsiders/Checkmate crossover. I was talking with Kalinara and she was positively livid about certain scenes in that book. And in retrospect, I believe that she was right to feel that way.
But at the time it didn't register with me. I enjoyed the issue, thought it was a good romp, and that was that. So either I'm dense, thick, insensitive, or simply very easy to please.
I sure hope it's the latter...

So, your hatred of marvel is based on irrational hatred rather than any quality issues?
Huh.
Well, the first step is admitting you have a problem.
No, my *dislike* of Marvel is based on the fact that I find the characters and the stories *wildly* uninteresting.
Makes perfect sense to me. And I say that as a former Marvel Zombie. Since Civil War, the characters that I formerly liked and or found interesting have been turned into villains or creeps. Or creepy villains.
I, of course was refering to the good stuff, not Civil War(heaven forbid)
Namely, Nextwave trades.
Everybody needs to read those.
Repeatedly.
