"Books? You want books?! Ha! We've got books on hairy otters, on onions and on mars! All the fungus you could care for, plus, three triple zillion stars. We've got books on flossing teeth, plus three books on tossing sheep. If we spent our lives just counting books, we'd never get to sleep!" -Leopold the Librarian ("The Great Wishy Woz")

Do you enjoy reading comic books? If so, do you prefer DC or Marvel? Who are your favorite superheros? X-Men, Spiderman, Batman, Superman?

I like Batman comics because Batgirl was a librarian. Kinda like an awesome super powered role model. Except I don't want to end up in a wheelchair. But besides that...

I really like Marvel's Ultimate Spiderman series.

I'm more of a Marvel fangirl than I am DC, and my favorite Marvel series of all time has to be Runaways. I also like Stan Sakai's Usagi Yojimbo and Herge's Tintin.

I'm a huge fan of comics!

At times I honestly don't know whether to choose between Marvel and DC. Lately all the "crisis" stuff with DC is really getting on my nerves and "The Battle for the Cowl" ,though it is rather interesting, really got on my nerves. Personally I lean towards Batman, Nightwing, JLA, Ultimate Spiderman and Teen Titans comics. Those are pretty much my favorites.

Yeah I'm a nerd :anxious:

I've always been more of a Marvel fanboy. \:D/ I don't dislike DC, but they've always just interested me less--however, their animation since the Batman: Animated Series days has for the most part been better than what Marvel has put out.

I don't read anything regularly anymore... although there were a number of comics I used to pick up every month for quite a few years... mostly Spider-man, Hulk, Punisher, Captain America, and Avengers... plus the occasional Fantastic Four and such. Now I occasionally pick up a tpb but don't really get regular issues.

I like Marvel a little better, but I'm more into the not as mainstream comics books and graphic novels. Like books by Doug TenNapel for example.

Yes, I'm a nerd too.
