>>109868921Same for me. I'm from australia and grew up in a small town in bumfuck nowhere. Nearest comic store was several hundred kilometers away. Traveled to the US for my 18th birthday a decade ago and happened to visit a comic store when I was there. Grabbed Blackest Night, Red Son, Kingdom Come, JLA/Avengers and Final Crisis. My only experience with superhero stuff prior to that was old Superman films. Fucking loved those books. Must have read each 50 times.
Final Crisis was my favorite, doubly so after reading enough to actually understand it.
Haven't stopped reading since, though New 52 and how hard they fucked up rebirth is making me consider it.
