Re: C3G Comic Book Club

I've heard mention of New Mutants vol 1, or vol 3 (Demon Bear). I'd like to have it locked down by weekend's end (if not sooner) to give people the week to read.

Thoughts or preferences? If I don't hear preferences, I'll just pick one of the two randomly or something.

Re: C3G Comic Book Club

I like starting with vol 1, given I don’t really know these characters. But if we went with vol 3 I’d manage.

Re: C3G Comic Book Club

I'd start with Vol. 3. It's the most iconic story and creative team for the characters and, well, as long as you know what the X-Men are it probably won't be that hard to put the pieces together for background.

I'd still love to see this added somewhere. Be cool to have the broken up by subscription amount, if any, too.

Re: C3G Comic Book Club

DC and Marvel's services both omit most 'adult' books (most anything from the MAX or Vertigo lines), and I remember hearing that DC was deliberately leaving out a lot of perennial big sellers (like Killing Joke) as well.

Re: C3G Comic Book Club

Can we get a list of what's already been suggested too?

Re: C3G Comic Book Club

I think the idea is that we will move to rotating picks, but I can put up the list as things others are interested in. Might help inspire pickers.

Re: C3G Comic Book Club

I am still reading Hush and will be for at minimum one more week, so I don't think I will make the cut on the first read. I'd also like to suggest longer than one week as a period for reading. A standard trade volume is about 6 issues or so, which would be about one issue every day if the period is one week. That doesn't seem like a lot in theory, but in practice can end up being more than one may expect.

I thought I would tag @Lazy Orang here as well. Since most of the picks will be comign from free services, it would be a great way to begin exploring comic books.

I think it'll be about finding the sweet spot. We don't want it to sit too long and lose some enthusiasm for this, and we don't want it too short where it feels like a substantial extra investment to participate.

I'm thinking setting a time frame of something like a day and a half per issue. So like Hush (12 issues) we'd set at 18 days, but like an average Valiant trade (4 issues) would be about 6 days. Something like that. So if we pick Demon Bear (8 issues) I'd say 12 day reading period? Or does that feel too fast to people?

Re: C3G Comic Book Club

I’d say 2 days an issue sounds about right.

I'll have to bear that in mind. Still hesitant about trying comics for a few reasons, but I'll keep this in mind if I do. I actually attend a traditional book club in Shrewsbury, so this wouldn't be entirely new for me.
