Excuse the fuck out of me.

Some of us live in places where the only place you can buy comics is Barnes and Noble.

Some of us don’t like comics because of the decades of continuity, complicated multiple universes, and the fact that, while there is a huge amount of talent in the industry, there are countless comics that have been tainted by poor writing and artwork.

Some of us prefer films because it is more relevant to our interests.

Some of us don’t have the income or time to spare to enjoy comics.

You don’t need to have read the comics to appreciate or be a fan of a character.

This attitude of superiority from people who are “real fans” because they read the comics makes me rage so hard.

Maybe people would be more eager to read comics if comic fans were more inclusive.

Oh, you wanna throw in “You can’t like Loki because you never read the old Norse runes.”, too?

It’s a matter of taste. Personally, I’ve never enjoyed reading comic books because I find them to be a) too expensive, b) hard to come by, and c) too complicated for me to understand what with all the new timelines, multiverses etcetera. It’s just not my cup of tea. I try to read as much as I can, but when I do, it’s usually stand alone graphic novels that exist in “their own universe”.

Saying “you’re not a real fan because you haven’t read the comics” is like telling someone “you can’t like banana ice cream because you’ve never tried bananas”. Oh, I’m sorry, never mind then, I’ll just stop liking this character, because clearly you’re much better than me since you’ve read the comic books. Do you want a parade, too? Maybe a monument? A T-shirt that says “I LIKED IT FIRST”? It’s just silly, and this kind of behaviour angers me so much. There’s no prize, you don’t win or gain anything by putting others down, so please, just don’t. It will only make you look silly in front of millions of fans who appreciate the character and story. Plus make you look like a huge ass.

Basically, this ends with “I don’t understand the ‘true fans’ mentality.”

I’m not a fan of comics, nor have I read a lot of them, maybe three of so, and there’s always a reason, or hindrance, why I stay that way. Moreover, I think a “true fan” means loving the person, not knowing every single goddamned detail about them.
