Burned Out On Comics

I'm a pretty big nerd. I love shared universes. That's one of the biggest reasons I get so sucked into stuff like Star Wars and especially superhero comics. I like that while I'm reading about Spider-Man fighting the Sinister Six, Captain America is out there stopping some recently uncovered Nazi superweapon while the X-Men are on a mission to rescue a mutant that just discovered his new powers. And if I want to find out what else is going on, I can go read about it. It makes the world seem alive and full. The problem I've had with comics lately is that I pretty much HAVE to read all of it in order to make sense of any of it.

I grew up thinking that Superman was lame. I blame the Super Powers toys I had as a kid. I had a ton of these but I lost Superman's cape pretty early on and his figure just wasn't as cool without it. I ended up deciding that he was a guy pretending to be Superman and had Batman and Aquaman (for some reason Batman and Aquaman were total bff's in my childhood mind) beat him up most of the time.
