I read the newspaper comics whenever I find a newspaper sitting around somewhere, but my heart is with the friendly neighbrhood comic shop.

I don't buy printed comic books by issue anymore, I just get collections of the ones I really like (unless they aren't in a collection, of course), but new comics usually I check them out pir8style before I commit any of my fiiiiilthy american money.


and yea, I read the paper's comics every chance I get. now it's out of habit because I'm usually just pissed off at the garbage they print.

My comic reading is similar to Trolls'.  I prefer reading most comics after they've been consolidated into one big book.  I don't really read newspaper comics but that is more due to not reading the newspaper.  Though every now and then I'll read some of the comics in the paper if there is one about.

i'm always waiting with baited breath to find out what the new drama on luann is gonna be.  and mark trail is on the tail of some poachers right now, i think.

besides, you have to pass by the comics to get to the page with the horoscopes and the crossword puzzles in the star tribune.  family circus is always pretty funny.

I buy things in collections generally. I'm more of a graphic novel man than a comics man.

I don't know why, but I never got into print comics much.  I read the newspaper strips occassionally, but the only print comics I own are a couple collections of Zits comic strips and the Real Life book.

I mainly read webcomics but I always pick up the newspaper in the morning and read the comics.  I have also fallen away  fromm the comic book store, don't really know why though.

My comic book purviewings are erratic, but I check out Boondocks, QC, and other such strips with glee.

I like Webcomics...cause they're free.  And because I find them funnier then most printed comics.  Except for Calvin and Hobbes.  Those are amazing.
