I had to learn all of this a few months ago. It's really a daunting task to figure out how comics work, especially coming from a manga mindset where everything has a chronological order and a set start/end point. Thank you for making this! It's sure to help a lot of people facing the same confusion I faced earlier this year!

I started by reading Wolverine (character I liked from films), then I learned about his villains, hero team ups, his fight with Hulk, then I read Hulk, then I read Avengers, it just branched out naturally as a lot of these things are intertwined and overlap. You'll discover new characters just from reading about other ones.

One thing I will mention is that for these characters that have been running for a long time, you don't need to read everything to know whats going or to enjoy the character. I for example love Daredevil and Batman, have I read a lot for both? Yes, but have i read everything these characters have ever been in? Oh dear god in heaven no

I grew up on comics like Batman, Flash, Spiderman, and X-Men, and I recently started to get interested in comics again after a long lapse. I felt very overwhelmed and just kinda grabbed a handful of random books featuring the characters I like, but this approach makes so much more sense. Focus on the work of the artists and the writers who are making the story enjoyable and follow their work and runs. I’m going to give this a try and see where it goes! Thanks for making such a helpful and informative video on this topic.

thank you for making this video. every other video I've found on the subject essentially boiled down to top ten comic lists rather than explaining from the ground up not only the concepts of runs, but also suggestions on how to continue to read and explore comics /on your own/, which is what I always struggled with All these comics felt so huge and scary to read before, but your kind way of speaking and gentle encouragement has finally gotten me to try reading the Tom King's run of Mister Miracle. I've heard before that I should read a lot of other comics to fully appreciate it and such, but I've done more research and found just as many saying it's fine to jump in blind. Thank you!

And I think it appeals even more so here because of how daunting comics can be.

You gave some great advice about personalizing our tastes and paying attention to what we're drawn to when we read. Thank you!! I have been in love with Wanda Maximoff since I was a little kid in the 2000s and seeing her on X-Men Evolution, then the MCU, I've been really craving some stories about complicated female characters with depth and now after watching this, I'm gonna give myself permission to bounce around instead of feeling pressured to read everything in chronological order!

I enjoy reading chunks of runs, going back and forth between and within series, and then filling in the blanks through my memory and through reading those blanks if I haven't. A good story is a good story, you don't need a 60 year background for the character. I also always read 3 to 6 things at the same time, alternating by mood or room (no kidding there, I have my heavier books lying in different rooms until read.

Looking around and having something jump out at you is a great feeling. That’s how I found Middle West by Skottie Young and Jorge Corona, which is a great book.

Great advice and points on how and where to start reading comics. when i started i read Essex County by jeff lemire, the reason i read that book was because Essex county was going to be made into a tv series and i wanted to read the source material before watching the show and I really enjoyed the book so much i decided to find more comics and graphic novels by jeff lemire and he basically became my favourite writer and artist, now i look for comic books that are by jeff lemire whether hes the writer, artist or both, what i love about jeff lemire comics and graphic novels where he only does the writing is that i get see a new comic artist and admire the artwork and jeff has partnered with many great comic book artists like Dustin Nguyen,Andrea Sorrention, Emi Lenox and many other and gives me more appreciation and admiration for comic book art by different artists and seek out more of their works which gives me more comics and graphic novels to read

I have problems paying attention , I never finish watching a movie, I've heard that reading comic books and book in general are a good way to mantain my mind focus on those stories, I guess it is going to be difficult but I'll try , good video!

Been reading comics for years. Go for what I like. Get runs, ominbus and trade paperbacks. Big collection. Love anime but never read a Manga. Go for the top stories like you said. Hit or miss. Long Halloween, Hush, Deadly Class and others. Love them. Grant Morrison Batman run not a big fan and others. Miss. Bendis run was good on Daredevil. You made some good points. Ii do mostly what you said. Good review man

Thanks for the video, I was kind of frustrated, because sometimes you want to jump to the current lineup but their current situation is not good and the only previous material that you were exposed to was a video game or a movie. For me for example my favorite X-Men is Cable but the first time that I saw it was when Marvel vs Capcom 2 was available in the arcades.
