Sure, I could see $100 a month (~$25 a week) being an unrealistic expense for kids on a small allowance or someone who lives on limited support in some way, but for an actual adult who has a job, $25 a week for entertainment expenses really isn't a lot. Even when I had the worst job I've ever had in terms of how much it paid (when I was in high school), I still made that much in about 2 hours worth of work.


You were getting paid $12.50/hour in high school? Goddamn, I got rooked.

Considering modern comics are basically just art books with a handful of words you can read through one in about 10 minutes. Reading through 30 - 35 comics is probably about 4 - 5 hours give or take. Certainly not a daunting task. Hell I read that much in a week and that is with having a full time job and other hobbies.


It's not just modern books, they've always been pretty fast to read unless you spent a lot of time admiring the art. (And the art seems a bit better these days.)

How many comics are these losers reading? I was reading like 5 series at a time too


Because liking something different makes them a loser...?

I guess the way I see it...a big problem being a comic book reader is learning not to be overwhelmed by all the new books coming out all the time


...it's not like there are that many books coming out at once that people are going to read and the average comic is pretty short. Even if you're buying everything that interests you, there's still probably plenty of time to catch up on back-issues.
