And now comics discussion

So there's been A LOT of discussion on DC's decision to cancel their minx line of comics. And one of the things I'm seeing is that the stories were too Afterschool Special and not enough Fantasy. Now I enjoyed a good portion of the line, but then despite enjoying a good Gilmore Girls rerun I'm not a 13 year old girl...

But many of you out there used to be. So speak up, would a line of comics that were basically All-Ages Vertigo have appealed to you? Actually Books of Magic, despite being a Vertigo book, was pretty much along those lines. So LJ-lady friends, when you were in that tweener age range, is that what you'd want? Books of Magic, a relaunch of Amythest, Princess of Gemworld or stuff about angsty but friendly super-natural monsters?

Amethyst!

And the supernatural monsters thing. (Really, I have the horrifying suspicion that, were Twilight around when I was a tween, I would've EATEN THAT SHIT UP.)

Oooh yeah...Amethyst! Only got to read a couple of stories with her, but I'd dig a non-wangsty relaunch of her in a heartbeat. :)
