Monday at 02:43 PM2 days CB Team Every era of comics has its trends. Some stick around because fans love them, while others wear out their welcome.Is there one trend you're ready to see disappear? Constant relaunches? Variant overload? Event fatigue? Characters never staying dead? Something else?For me, I'd be happy if publishers slowed down on the constant #1 relaunches. I like following a series without wondering when the numbering is going to reset again.What about everyone else?
Monday at 05:14 PM2 days CB Team Constant relaunches, I think. Magik has really had too many, when she could've just... had one ongoing.
Yesterday at 04:25 PM1 day CB Team The current trend now seems to be everyone trying to jump on the success of Absolute with a darker relaunch. Not going to work for everything!

12 hours ago12 hr Im so sick and tired of all the different variant covers that they pump out to sell the same comic 20x over. As someone who has nearly completed compiling a collection of every Doom cover ever printed, with the exception of the early FF covers and ASM #5, someday..lol the overwhelming push by marvel to spring Doom into the public eye with the hundreds of recent Doom covers and still going I might add has almost made me give up on the entire endeavor. Remember when kids bought their favorite comic when it came out at the local comic shop, now we have 20 variants for the same issue for as long as they can get away with it just to make a buck. It cheapens and ruins the hobby in my opinion. Just with the recent one world under Doom series and all of the variants that followed, do the math it has been ridiculous, I thought I was gonna have to take out a second mortgage all for books that undoubtedly won't be worth squat 20 years from now because of the high print counts but oh well, maybe peach momoko will become president someday and it'll all pay off after all..lol
