Comics are dead.

http://www.hauntedisland.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Heworth-Graveyard.-Gateshead.jpgTo be honest I think comics have died for me.  Its not comic reading fans now its "I want to be trendy" and screw fans for every penny possible while insulting them. 

I'm not just talking about comic publishers but the gutter slime distributors and even the comic shop owners who only want Marvel and DC shit on their shelves and fuck anything that isn't making them a lot of money.

The festered turds who trade on Amazon and Ebay and over inflate already over inflated prices on "rare"/"Vintage"/ "Must have" issues that are anything but.  These comics were printed in huge numbers. But these people get away with it because "chumps pay cash".   

Books don't achieve the huge bids a dealer wants then there's an excuse why that book hasn't been on sale or listed even though it has been listed and you've been in contact with the seller.  Or their little helpers who move in quick before the bidding stops and, uh, "out bid" you...a week later the same book is listed again.

True fans leaving comics -I wonder why?

Comics are dead.
