comics you would never buy...

Kirkman-hater.

Absolutely not true, Nellie. I had a booth right next to Funk-O-Tron at the 2000 San Diego Comic-con and especially had fun with and enjoyed the company of Robert Kirkman. I think Rob is a cool guy and love what he did with the Walking Dead. I also am proud of his success with the TV series which I enjoyed every second of.

I find Invincible, however to be elementary, uninspired and to heavily influenced by all kinds of other things and it just doesn't interest me at all. I don't like the character... don't like the design... never could get interested in the stories... and yes, I also found all the acclaim the book got right out of the gate without even accomplishing anything great a bit annoying...

But it's not even REMOTELY about Robert Kirkman. I find him delightful.

The book that Kirkman co-created and has been writing since the beginning has nothing to do with him? Non sequitur?

No no no... My dislike of the book has nothing to do with him. My reasons for not liking Invincible are not based on my feelings for Robert Kirkman. I was accused of being a "Kirkman hater". That is not the case.

Ok, then: Kirkman-book-hater

You guys are missing out on Invincible. For the who don't like the "cartooniness" of Walker and Crabtree would be amazed by the current Ottley/Plascencia combo.

I agree completely.

Any comic where the heroes don't have superpowers, such as Batman and Green Arrow. I read Frank Miller's second Batman graphic novel, so there are exceptions, but I mean mainly the monthly version. I also was never interested in the Green Lantern/Green Arrow team-up comics. I also have no interest in Hawkman.

Pretty much all current Marvel just boggles my mind. I make the occasional exception for that sweet, sweet Brubaker Cap... But otherwise, I don't touch Marvel nowadays.
Also, (possible flame war warning!) I haven't enjoyed a SINGLE X-men title, book, story, whatever- within the last 11 years. Not a single one.

I also have a hard time convincing myself to pick up any Hellboy or Hellboy-universe related story that isn't both drawn AND written by Mignola.
