"sorry bro, that's really too much for me to read". Are some people just too impatient for comics?

My brother once said that to me, so I'm my big brother and I always try to bring him to the medium. And I think it's an interesting question because reading also requires at least a kind of patience or at least it depends on the work. I can imagine that it can be complicated for people to read through a big thing. And I'm not just talking about books here but also about comics in general. Especially if, for example, it was an ongoing, it can have more than 20 issues, or or vols or hardcovers.

And I know there is also the problem with superhero comics from Marvel/DC, which is a bit difficult for newbies to understand when an event suddenly comes up or with let's call them comic families. So be it, for example, the X-Man team or everything in Gotham City . But I also hear "that's too much for me" in other series that are solos.

These people say it's because they feel like nothing is happening in the long run. What I somehow can't understand, I think some stories just try to build something bigger. Serial storytelling Can take the time to build up, and when something escalates it really seems like a big deal. That's kind of the problem I have with films, that they just try to give you something right away instead of really taking their time to build up. And on paper you are simply better there than with a 2 hour film.

Of course there are some people like me who have no problem reading a series that has 100 issues or 10 volumes, but it's clear that not everyone can do that if they want to.

But what do you think?

Cult-Like Characters?

Hey! Non comic reader here. Are there any characters in books that are in cults? Or even look like they might be? Even like a villain that looks like/is in a cult with robes and stuff? Just trying to get costume ideas for something and I know Reddit can pull out stuff that I wouldn’t even thank to Google. TIA!

EDIT: I’m a pro wrestler that’s joining a religious cult like group and I’m looking for attire ideas so they don’t have to necessarily be IN a cult but the dark, hooded/robe/mask attire is kind of the vibe I’m looking for if that helps 😂

EDIT 2: Forgot to add that steampunk/post apocalyptic attires are welcome as well as that’s kind of the vibe of our clothing

Favorite comic books where the protagonist is recently died, or dealing with being dead?

What titles do you enjoy where the protagonist is dealing with "living" after dying?

I'm thinking of something like the following TV Shows.

  • Dead Like Me
  • Ghosts
  • The Good Place

Did Europe or Japan have a underground comic scene in the 60s and 70s similar to America?

I know Japan had magazines like Garo that featured alternative and avant-garde manga. I'm just wondering if there were more magazines like that or if their was a alternative scene in Europe?
