Comic Book Reading Pitfalls I Fell Into (So You Don’t Have To)

Описание: Comic book reading pitfalls can quietly hurt your enjoyment of the hobby—no matter what you read. In this video, I talk through the comic book reading mistakes I fell into while reading Marvel, DC, Image Comics, Dark Horse, and indie comics—from forcing myself to finish books I wasn’t enjoying, to overlooking older comics because of their art style, and even taking my local comic shop (LCS) for granted.

These are personal comic reading habits, not industry problems. Whether you’re reading Batman, Spider-Man, X-Men, creator-owned books, collected editions, or single issues, these mindset traps can lead to burnout and make reading comics less enjoyable.

📚 Topics covered:

Why you don’t need to finish every comic run or omnibus
How dismissing older Marvel and DC comics because of art can make you miss incredible stories
Why supporting your local comic shop matters—even in a digital and collected-edition era
