Having gotten back into comics within the last year, I can agree somewhat with Quinn. I don't pick up the one shot, guest appearance, big events though. I just pick up the books I pick up.

Everything scales. Ellie's fantasy is just a little too realistic and perhaps an indicator of her own self-worth in comparison to her sisters.

Pumpkin is in shock over Quinn being a diehard but avoiding reading the comics. It's more about her assumption being shattered that Quinn was a comic-reading geek.

Sounds legit to me. I used to know all about who was who in the Marvel universe back in the '80s, but actually following all that non-continuous continuity written by writers of differing skills and sensibilities? No thanks. Any vestigial interest I had in shared universe comics ended about 15 years ago when I discovered webcomics. With webcomics, you are dealing with the vision of 1 person (or 2 if its a writer/artist team). This means continuity is mostly stable and you don't have to worry about major characters changes being forgotton, ignored, or retconned out of existence when a different writer comes on the project. (Well, almost never. webcomickers sometimes retcon themselves when they write themselved into a corner, but it is pretty rare.) If there had been webcomics (or for that matter, the Web) when I was younger, I would have never picked up a single comic book. Comic books are full of politics and editorial medding and clashing artistic visions, and that stuff only serves to mess up what might otherwise be a good story. Plus, the once a month delivery system sucks, even if you do actually wind up getting more content over time. Comic books are dying, and I shall not weep for their passing.

This is how it begins. Now random stacks of books are going to just "magically" show up on Quinn's doorstep. Also, I suspect Ellie's reading the oStorybooks if she equates "Prince Charming" to "Red Lobster."

I don't necessarily blame her. There's a few shows that had TERRIBLE acting and really awful/cheesy moments every episode, so I just read through the wiki...plots were good enough. I'd have read a book. I imagine that some comics are the other way around!

So are they going to make out or what?
