    Before this I was thinking of getting back into Spider-Man comics like I had as a kid.

    Not touching that with a 50 ft pole now.

      The last time we had a good (Peter Parker) Spider-Man run was in the 1990’s. There’s been some decent Miles stuff here and there but mostly Marvel is not good. Read BOOM!, Dark Horse, Image…

        This is a tangent, but I am so burnt out on Magic between the Universes Beyond and the new set every other week. I need to get back into just Cubing and not care about the plethora of cards from different IPs coming out, but I don’t know, just knowing about it all has kind of killed my passion for the game.

          May I suggest: just do the fun parts. Print your own cards. Ignore sets that don’t interest you. Stop giving Hasbro money for no reason.

          I think the schedules going to cause burnout sooner rather than later.

          In the group of people I play with, no one’s really buying anymore- a lot of times even for the ips they like.

          Even the guys who pride themselves in having non-proxy cedh decks have given up- by the time you’ve got the new cards in 2 weeks later, chances are theres another replacement. Mow theyre playing woth proxies for the cards in their flex slots, and only buying 3-4 times a year when they make a trip to go to a tourney.
