I quit too. Came back to read The Walking Dead after enjoying the first few seasons of the show (which is based on it). That book ended shockingly (with no announcement; he just tied up the loose ends quickly), and that story was then ruined by TV death-swapping characters for no reason (it actually boxed them in a few times doing that) and killing characters who were still alive and vital to the ending. Anyway you can believe comic books are just for kids, but that simply isn’t true.
I can admit to being stung a few times using Classics Illustrated Comics instead of reading the books in High School.
