I live in a dream world where the big companies stop relying on the same tired genres and start branching out and offering opportunities to brilliant "indie" creators (because anything that's not superheroes or the shitty comics in newspapers is indie by default these days) who sorely need the work.

or where they'll just disappear already so we can just move the fuck on, start from the ground up and cultivate a comic culture that won't die off due to sheer lack of diversity or foresight.

Hi Daunt

...I can't help but think of the indie creators that love superhero/mainstream comics, or grew up on them, or have drawn fanart of them, or have even written or drawn stories for the big companies. Off the top of my head: Los Bros. Hernandez (Love and Rockets), Carla Speed McNeil (Finder), Jeff Smith (Bone), Kate Beaton (Hark! A Vagrant), Christopher Hastings (Dr. McNinja)...

ime it's rarer to find comic book store nowadays that only offers the mainstream stuff, too, unless said store also specializes in other collectibles and shelf space is at that much of a premium. There's just so much more available now than ever, as well as more indie publishers than ever. This isn't to say that indie creators don't need a boost in visibility in the comics scene -- but I think it's better to champion the independent publishers in this case than to wish away the big guys (who in some cases might even be the lead-in to indie stuff for people).

I live in a dream world where the things I like (such as superhero movies and tried but true plots) continue to be popular. And...it's not really a dream world. :DDDD

(People don't all like the same things, blah blah. Why are you lot so insistent that every movie has to be an artistic masterpiece and that action/comic movies are all crap?)
