Why I stopped reading comics

Subject: Why I stopped reading comics
by MF on 2006/4/29 16:49:22

Okay, so I'm in my friend's comic book store today and on the Marvel rack is a miniseries title called Marvel Zombies. Now first of all, why in the Hell, Michigan would I want to buy a comic book about my favorite superheroes as reanimated corpses? The very thought sickens me. I know it's irrational but ever since I saw Michael Jackson's Thriller as a child, I've had an almost paralyzing fear of zombies. [And Michael Jackson, but that's more understandable.] But the cover was what repulsed me the most! They've apparantly been recreating classic covers with the characters as the undead and this one was of >SHUDDER!< Amazing Spider-Man Annual #19, the wedding issue! All the background heroes and villians were all zombied up and it looked like zombie Spidey had been eating Mary Jane! I just wanna go up to the guy that drew that and ask him "How do you sleep at night?" I know they're just fictional characters but I never saw what the appeal of zombie and horror movies and that whole Gothy culture of death was. Guess I was just born too late or too early or something. Anyway, thanks for letting me rant and explain why I stick with the classic stuff. Ya know, before the sickos started running the asylum around the turn of the century.
