On reading graphic novels in the subway

August 6th, 2010 at 7:52 pm ET

IMG_0090I saw this guy reading what I infer was Batwoman: Elegy in the subway, and I thought it was cool to see someone reading a graphic novel OPENLY AND WITHOUT SHAME in the subway. And so I took a picture. And then I talked to him, and he was really nice, and he found out I hadn’t read The Sandman or Watchmen and he said, “Dude, I read Watchmen every month.” And I was ashamed.

    I gave up on comics when I went to college and my mother tossed all of my comics. Ugh. I’ve been out of the loop since ’93. I managed to read Watchmen — not bad. I just had to see what all the hubbub was about. At this point, I feel I’ve been out of it too long to really get back into it.
