Comics

Hey guys,

Are any of you into comics? I'm looking at buying some, but it's like jumping into a giant pool with no end in sight. As someone who has never read comics, it's hard to know where to start.

That said I've found a few "New 52" ones that look pretty kick-ass and I'm wondering if there is a good site for ordering them. One that ships to Australia. Otherwise I can get my local Impact Comics store to order me stuff. They were very enthusiastic today. I don't think they see many confused 30-somethings randomly asking questions about everything. :P

Thanks sweetie! Yeah, I am getting the impression people are passionate about their comics. It's adorable and I don't mean that in a condescending way. I was grinning ear to ear in the store and confused, but quite hyped by the time I left. :)

I picked up volume 1 of the tie in for The Arrow and a Superman Birthright, which the nice lady in the comic store recommended me. So I have somewhere to start.

But I'm interested in a few other things, so I was hoping there was an easy way to order online. Is there? Seems like you'd know.

I think I might like to read some of the Birds of Prey (http://www.comicvine.com/birds-of-prey-48-the-chaotic-code-part-two-crash-b/4000-112961/) comics (another one the lady recommended when I said kick-ass women interested me) and definitely The Flash. There's an origin one (http://www.comicvine.com/the-flash-0-before-the-new-52/4000-358828/) that's quite recent, but I'll probably have to order it in. I'd definitely like to read Wonder Woman. I love her! And I think I saw something about new Supergirl comics... Must look that up. :D
