Read and weep, especially as much of the column is about the perils of building your own computah.

- it doesn't take comics that seriously but it does like them.- no icons and sigfiles!- we like Grant Morrison but we don't actually want to be him- ditto Ellis, Bendis, Millar- your gateway to a world of ILX pain- the occasional bit of great insight- we honestly WOULD like some threads that aren't about Marvel, DC, 2000AD etc. Honest!

I Love Comics is a sub-board on the ilXor network. When not LAFFING at the return to 60s psych plotting in mainstream comics today (TINY FOOTPRINTS IN BRANES notwithstanding), we LAFF at scenes rendered humorous by modern language, draw our own material based on throw-away comments, and laugh at Rob Liefeld's inability to draw well.
Usually the Brits try and push 2000AD on the Americans, the Americans try and push X-history on the Brits and the Europeans try and push Corto Maltese on everybody.
Our polls would give you a better idea of our likes and dislikes, if we ever finished one, but Grant Morrison is our favourite. We just have no desire to join him, wanking onto a sigil on some mountaintop in Tibet.

We're about the other end of the spectrum from the Engine, which I quickly realised was a good place to go if I needed A NAGGING (which is sometimes the case) but not actually that much fun. Nobody's just a wannabe on ILC, we're all already famous for being famous!

Anyway, I was going to say that I'm sort of glad that there was no result from this. I mean, at least nothing bad happened as a result. Can anyone tell me if there was any traffic at all as a result of the link? I'm curious as to how many people actually follow the recommendations from Grant's column now (I know that I usually don't, so I suppose the outcome should have been no surprise).

Awesome story, Tom. I wonder how many people even did a look-thru, though! I was a bit miffed when last week in his column Grant started bitching about how there's no substantial critical content about comics on message boards. "Tell them Chris and I sent you", indeed-- did he just look at the New Answers page and then split? Ergh!
I blame amphetamines.
In my case, I blame not wanting to write my paper about Kant...

Though, by now its easily my favourite comics board.
