I'd like to nominate DizzyD's thread on European Comics found herewhile a few of the comics discussed are chronologically classic, most are modern comics and the thread has opened up a whole new world of possible reading for me and introduced me to series and creators I would never have discovered otherwise. -M

I really enjoyed our discussion in Orphan Black outsold all DC and Marvel titles in February. Normally, I would think it's in bad taste to nominate a thread I started myself, but it's not the content I brought to the thread that made it so memorable to me. It's how it evolved into a conversation about how elements like digital media distribution and Loot Crate affect publication numbers and, subsequently, publisher decisions in the current comic book climate.

I going to go with Scot Harris' Are Batman Fans Sociopaths? thread for this one. It got a little harry at times but for my money it's one of the more in depth conversations we've had concerning trends in modern comics.

So far, we only have one nomination that's been seconded. I realize our Modern Marvel and Beyond the Big Two sections are pretty new, but what about The Hall of Justice section?

I'll second the Orphan Black nomination.
I don't read very many current titles, so I have to admit I don't venture into the modern sections very often.
