I've been reading comics since I learned to read, but they were mostly like, Garfield, Calvin & Hobbes, Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, eventually manga, that sort of thing. Grew up watching anything Superman I could find and the animated Batman cartoons, but only got into superhero comics and Marvel (mostly Captain America) after Avengers. Still haven't read any DD other than excerpts online, but I definitely plan to!
