Any comic art collectors here that no longer read comics?

I have not bought a comic since-well last time I bought a CD.
DOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I only buy Tiny Titans these days. The rest of DC's slate is nothing but grim-n-gritty nihilistic nonsense, and Joephisto's Marvel is a no-fly zone. Once Tiny ends, I'm done altogether. There's more fun to be found in collecting art than in collecting comics.

still addicted to the montly pile. Get about $70 worth of comics each month. Have dropped some here and there, hope to get to about $50 at some point.

I'm confused by the definition that many here are using. To you guys, "comics" means monthly books (and ostensibly superhero books put out by a couple of publishers)?

To me, comics are the full range, sequential art with words: comics. So, yes, I continue to read a lot of comics. And I mean a lot. In the last 2 months I've read about 74 self-published ocmics, on top of fantastic comics like 20th Century Boys, Faüne, Blacksad, Asterios Polyp, Pluto, Jan's Atomic Heart, George Sprott, Moving Pictures, The Hunter, Red: A Haida Manga, The Abominable Charles Christopher, Galaxion, Nightschool. And, yes, I read Star Wars Omnibus. And Tiny Titans. The new Scott Pilgrim has been read, too.

Funny thing you mention in this thread , I was wandering the exact same thing myself . I used to like a lot of the Batman titles but don't even bother checking them out any more , like some mentioned you have to buy other series just to complete the story ( wich isn't worth reading when you finish it )
Glad I'm not the only one who feels this way !

if I buy any now its trades - but even those are collecting older stories. Sometimes I'll pick up the odd one shot.
Comics have changed too much from what i enjoyed about them. Seen many a good character's book ruined over the last 10 years or so to help finance marvel's latest CGI adventure at the box office.
So if I buy comics now its old ones to satisfy myself with the nostalgia.

The last comic book I purchased was Batman #619, the conclusion to Hush storyline.
