Comics aren’t just Marvel and DC. Check out Image, Boom Studios, Ablaze, Oni, and whatever the hell Vertigo is now. Pick up Something is Killing the Children or Department of Truth (both by James Tynion, but I like most everything he does). Look for Hopeless Savages and We Only Find Them When They’re Dead. Go read Scott Pilgrim, Locke and Key, Deadly Class, Resident Alien, Die, or Phonogram. There is so much out there that doesn’t have to do with dudes in tights fighting each other. You’ve got a lot to explore once you get away from Summer Crisis Events.
