Serious reading about crap reading

The first comic I remember buying is the first issue of Black Lightning. I absolutely remember it. I remember where my dad bought it for me, and I remember how my mom took it away once she got a look at it because it was too violent.

That's all relevant because of the first paragraph in Jeff Tepper's gigantic essay on the entire comic book medium.

It's seriously massive, and I've only read the first two parts (three have been published on Sequart.com.

ComicsPriceGuide says it'd be worth about twelve bucks. Far from the fabulous wealth that lots of us thought (during the booming early 90's) that we'd have coming.

Thanks for stopping by, though, and hope the knee and foot heal up.
