# Never really got into GL
but he seems a lot less annoying than most.

And Batman and Superman are generally better than most of the Marvel dreck, so perhaps GL is likely to be better too.

# That's the trouble I have whenever I try to read a superhero style comic
You need to know who they are, everything they've done for the last 15 years, who they used to be, who used to be them, how many times they've died, whether they are currently good or evil and exactly which parallel dimension they are currently being good or evil or alive or dead in for that storyline.

Frankly I can't be arsed.

# that was half the fun
you read a comic - think who the fuck is blah blah blah - then you spend years tracking back and reading in reverse ;)

# ciggies and booze are great but I also like comics
but I prefer more self contained ones like Transmetropolitan or Walking Dead for example.

I just find it really annoying that the tights and capes ones always seem to turn into a soap opera or do that incredibly annoying thing of getting to the end of an issue of a reasonable superhero romp and then saying, "continued in Mega Ant-Girl #14 & #37, pages 3, 19 & 11 of this month's Amazing Expanding Head one-shot and the letters page of The Fantastic Shrimp."

# I was commended The Walking Dead by
someone in the office here. Most impressed, a lot better than what I'd expected after seeing the TV show.
