It's even MY Golden Age of collecting. I can get giant size books, Marvel's Essentials, DC's Showcase Presents, and archive and hardbound collections... reprints to make my heart happy.

Most comics right now are not to my taste... but the availability of product and fun for each taste cannot be overstated.

What's right with comics today? Just about everything. (Today, Wednesday 6-10,  is even new comic day!)

It's the Golden Age of reprint collections, with more great work in print than any time ever before.

The kids' comics market is thriving. There are graphic novels for young readers that are in every library and bookstore across the country, many selling hundreds of thousands of copies with each installment.

More creators, especially young creators, are telling the stories they want to tell, whether using corporate-owned characters or their own.

And echoing what Andrew said, it has never been easier to read volumes of older material. Even if I had no interest in anything being published this year, I've got thousands of older titles at my fingertips on Comixology. Spoilt for choices, so to speak.

Very happy to have Elsewhen.

I am trying to find out if there are any current comic books worth taking a look at.  I really want to find something from the big 2 that is worthwhile as all I do these days when I go to my LCS is dig through back issues.

There really is a wide variety of books coming out each week, but the younger staff at the shops is not going to know what appeals to my tastes.

I grew up reading and collecting "regular" comics and later various hardcopy collections, preferring the "oversized" dimensions of Marvel's omnibii.

If I had the time, I'd build a wall-sized bookshelf for my various collections them languish in my parents attic.

But as a full time worker, homeowner, and father, I don't have that time at all.  Even the smattering of books I have in my house are somewhat inconvenient to carry around, let alone risk my 3 year old touch pages to ask, "What's that?" (I'd probably less mind him touching a licked finger on a original "floppy" than one of those $100+ reprint omnibii). 

My Amazon Fire with the Comixology app and their monthly sales have seriously re(heh)Kindled my interest in comic books.  I've repurchased most of my collected books.  I've been reading Silver-aged Marvels to my son every night and an errant wet finger is easily wiped off the screen.  After nods off, I get re-acquainted with stuff he's not ready for yet, like Sandman.

What's been unexpected exciting for me is Comixology's "panel" view.  I always have skipped around a new issue a few times before finally "settling" back to read it properly.  I feel that reading a single panel at a time on a 10" screen really gives me an improved opportunity to focus on the story and appreciate the artwork.

I really like Ms. Marvel a lot and seeing representation of a muslim female in comics is super cool and the comics have heart and action and fun.

I love that Jeff Lemire seems to get a lot of work- Descender is incredible and it's from several years back but hi Sweet tooth and Animal Man are great as is Black Hammer.

Saga is one of the great series of all time in my opinion and Paper Girls is pretty damn engaging, too.

Ultimately, comics seem more diverse (in representation of races, sexes, etc) and in style which I appreciate.
