To read*
@cbplanets: Then they donāt like to read 'em and thereās nothing wrong with that. All Iām saying is that there MAY be people out there who signed up for the shows who MIGHT also either like comics or who MIGHT decide to give them a try anyway even though thatās not what they signed up for. If someone doesnāt care for them Iām not going to even bother trying to persuade them to try them anyway because thatās waste of time.

Bravo Jason!
So many people on this service seem so passionate about āDCā but also seem to have little to no interest in the comics that spawned the great āDCā!
Heck yeah, read some darn comics! There are so many great stories and great characters to enjoy. Bummed about Swamp Thing being cancelled, when youāve only seen three episodes? Read the HUNDREDS of issues on this service to ease your pain! Canāt stand the pain of waiting for back half of season 3 of Young Justice? Check out Teen Titans in all its iterations. READ SOME DARN COMICS!

I get the feeling that a lot of people who scream about the āsource materialā actually mean the Timmverse + Killing Joke (because they all know āone bad dayā).

Sorry but I read the comic books and I have disagree that the comics are better than the cartoons/movies.
Voice acting is and will always be the identity of most DC heroes/villains to me, sure one can argue āJust imagine Mark Hamil and Kevin Conroyās voice when readingā but itās not the same as actually hearing it along to moving motion. Plus, we canāt really imagine how exactly theyād say it. I also love the fight scenes of say, Arrow on CW and how it brings character interaction into fruition.
Come to think of it, video games might be the top of DCās quality entertainment mediums. The Arkham games, Injustice 2 and Lego DC games, itās a shame there arenāt more but hey, they are fairly new adaptations.
All that said, comics do have certain advantages.

I have to disagree for the most part as well. My favorite animated movie is Under the Red Hood and I feel its way better than the actual comic book version of the story. Donāt get me wrong I like the āsource materialā well enough but it was a bit decompressed and the movie streamlined a lot of it so that the overall story flowed better in my opinion.

Just to clarify what I said, I donāt have the service for the comics because I buy comics every week and read them and have been collecting and reading them for a long time, so as cool as it is that they have the comics, I got the service for the streaming content and original shows, so like I said, not everyone is here for the comics, that doesnāt mean Iām not a fan of comics, donāt read comics and donāt love DC, it amazes me that people are so negative, jump to conclusions and constantly attack or have negative opinions about othersā¦

Wile the comics is a nice addition Iām the same I mainly got this for live action content . You have to remember the way this was promoted it was promoted as a streaming service . Thatās like Netflix saying instead of original tv and movie content hereās books to read . Itās not a bash Iām just trying to help you understand why I and others feel cheated . I know people who prefer pysichal copies of comics over digital. For me itās either or . You have to admit itās not looking good if 2 popular shows got canceled. I havenāt watched doom patrol but thatās a bad sign man. If they want to keep customers happy and subscribers higher they need yo do more . Itās common sense . I have no idea about business but even I can see through it
@blue_felt_messiah: I hope what I said didnāt offend you in some way. I apologize if I somehow made you think I was attacking you simply because of a direct reply
I read omnibusās those cost me 75-150 but they have a lot that I cant get from here sometimes.
