Maybe i'm out of the loop and cynical, but I find it very hard to find any comics worth subscribing to. Especially when it comes to superhero comics. Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those people who hates capeshit on principle, but I find it hard to gauge the quality of an upcoming run just based on the character, or even a writer who's work I've enjoyed in the past. Frankly, I find it more reliable to judge comics based on their art, because that way I can still enjoy them regardless of whether they're well written...

It just seems easier to buy comics after the fact. Yes, I'm one of those people who almost exclusively reads omnibuses and trade paperbacks. Even when I do buy individual issues, its usually after they're already out of print. I didn't read Alan Moore's final run of league until after it concluded, and I managed to buy the whole run at more-or-less retail price. And might I add, British printed comics are so much better. The paper quality is fantastic, not glossy the way American comics are. They're also larger, both the paper size and the page count. They actually feel comfortable to read.

Anyway... I don't say all this just to complain. I would really prefer to subscribe to at least one release at any given time! I guess its a cry for help. How do you find these things, beyond just keeping your ear a bit closer to the ground? I feel like I'd go insane doing that, just because there's so many. The last thing I subscribed to was the newest I Hate Fairyland run, just because I enjoyed the original, and I was a little let down. That, and Spider-Man 2099: Dark Genesis
