I’m seeing people arguing about why comic stores are closing, so let me point out the elephant in the room. If you pirate, torrent, or read bootleg comics online instead of paying for them, then YOU are the reason comic stores are closing. Cool? Cool.

Comics are for everyone. There is no excuse for harassment. There is no place for homophobia, transphobia, racism or misogyny in the comics industry, comics criticism or comics fandom. Don’t be a dick.

When I was a student, I interviewed Alan Moore (he was lovely). I mentioned that I hoped to write comics professionally someday, but I was worried I’d never make it. He said, “You will. Because you’ll realise the alternative is, like, working in an office.” He was right.
