Yup, for the past 30 days I have not read a single comic and I still have 10 days left to go. I have a big stack of new ones and once I can I'm going to go into my room and read the day away. Hopefully reading some comics will make my new rash and twitch go away...

From 1985-1993 or so. 
With a few merciful exceptions. I bought Watchmen, of course, and DKR (though not the first printing). But that was about it. Fortunately, I was able to fill in most of the gaps in the Avengers and Amazing Spiderman since.

I wouldn't call it withdrawal, more like indigestion. Especially in the mid-90's though Marvel is now looking the same way with all these variant covers, one-shots, and crossovers.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

When I was younger, my parents wouldn't let me read or buy any comics for a month when I got into trouble.
This happened around the time of COIE.
So when my punishment was over, I go down to my LCS to pick up my books. I figured I had about 15-20 books to pick up.
My LCS "did me a favor" & put every cross-over issue with COIE into my pull box
I think there was about 60 comics in there
Ugh

Yeah; I went through good-old-comic withdrawl for most of the 90s. So much crap to wade through.

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

I stopped during the mid 90's & just got back into some comic titles 2-3 years ago.
