Imagine paying for this shit.

In all seriousness:

If there was no way to pirate comics for free and you had to purchase individual issues... What current books would you spend your money on(if any)..?

I’d select a few major ones, or major events. But likely, I wouldn’t spend anything till the entire run/arc is done and I hear that it’s good to buy

So, basically, you'd wait for trades/omnibuses?

Depends on what else was piratable. If I could pirate movies, anime and manga then I sure as hell wouldn't be spending any money on comics. I barely read them as it is.

Yeah, Internet offers way too many possibilities.

Yeah, outside of a few SW titles, I can't really think of anything else that piques my interest enough to spend money on. At least right now. /shrug

Honestly, if from this exact moment that scenario plays out [i.e. I know how all of the comics are at this moment], nothing. I'd just buy Morrison and Hickman's TPBs when they're done. Theoretically I'd always follow Superman [unless he's replaced by Lana as Superwoman, similar to what happened to Thor], but seeing as how I see how decompressed and awfully boring Bendis is, I wouldn't get the money's worth at all.

Morrison, yeah, I'd definitely still follow his work. I'd pass on purchasing anything written by the sharpie-sniffer that is Bendis, though.

Hell, even the Indie side of things has taken a huge nosedive in the past months. I'm struggling to think of an ongoing that I would pay to read there as well.

I'd only buy trades.
No singles.

Which is pretty much what I do now...

Rumors is, Cavill signed a contract to play Superman at least 3 more times.

Somali Superman?

Just be thankful they aren't Trans.

Feel like that's imminent at this point.

That is just sad.

Anyone that thinks this is a good thing, are outright idiots.

Dc has been sucking Chinese off with their Chinese Superman, so I don’t see why not.

Funny thing, by doing that, they spit on the core ideals that Superman represents.
