(Seriously, it's a great book. If we get a sub-forum, I promise to start a thread about it).

Hey don't worry. Having a Subforum will make it easier to avoid them.

Regardless of the issue, it is quickly becoming a plague that hampers discussion by veering a thread off course.
Or someone could simply create and then maintain a FAQ thread based on past and ongoing questions....

Sounds good to me. It'll free up space in the heavily used book forum for other topics about books!
seriously - yeah - comic book subforum sounds cool.

I'm fully in support for this idea. I have scanned through the monthly comic thread numerous times but never post because most of the discussion seems to be more about the various delivery services or whatnot. As a long-time comic collector I would love to be able geek out over a particular Spider-man incident!
Bring on the Cosmic Comic Sub-Forum!!
