damn! i can't believe i've missed out on this thread to this point.
if everyone can scan shots of their favourite comic art throughout the week it would make a great thread. i always try to exemplify the different art i come across.
i think this board has a nice mixture of both longtime fans and newcomers - i think we should almost have a thread just for those who have read for quite some time to bring up random issues they read and want to review, or people who buy back issues and review them too. hell, a general "issue review" thread would be fantastic.
another thread i've thought of is rarities. there's been a lot of random independants that i have no clue where they come from having no trace on casual internet search. i'll probably post that this week..
in the end, great thread sye. hats off.
and rac that is a most generous idea.
i'll add more tommorow.

I am all for a more active board. Myself and others have tried it before. But it would be nice to have more discussion here. I have always found that official threads actually impede conversation, and can decrease overall board activity. Granted, do we really want 15 different Batman threads? Ideally no, but that is better than no activity at all.
While I think a separate thread for each issue might be a bit much, a thread for each title isn't a bad idea.
I don't have the time or patience to do a "__ of the week" type thing, but reading one would be cool, especially if it focuses on a classic story.
It's harder for me to have active conversation about current issues, because I have gone to buying trades due to space constraints.
Posting more about comic related movies, figures, or statues certainly wouldn't hurt.

I don't do much in this board aside from the Anime thread, but I'll post more on the board to get it going again.  |

Some people could post their own reviews on graphic novels and single issues of comic books. Just an idea.

I actually enjoyed seeing random Superhero vs Superhero threads. Like the recent Superman vs Goku. And the other Ironman vs Batman from before brought a good back and forth.
I like seeing people choose who they feel would win and why because theirs gonna be someone out there who picks the rather and go in a friendly back and forth on who would win. Well at least when they put some effort into a response and not "Superman kicks ass lol" or something haha
Thats my O

Those threads can definitely be fun. |

Sye makes a good point. We need an entire board dedicated to Scott Pilgrim.

I'm realatively new to the comic book world so anything like reviews and suggestions would be great. I will try to contribute more also. Scott Pilgrim also wasn't bad, I just read Vol. 1. A simple read, not much too it.
