May 9, 2013 9:11 pm What iFanboy means to me? I learned more about comics through this site and it's subsequent podcasts than from my entire career as a comics collector. The wealth of knowledge found among these great people is invaluable. That's the first half. The second thing I learned from this site is celebration. It may seem trite but in a world where you become famous by hating and trashing on some pop-culture icon or subject, it's really refreshing to hear a bunch of people who talk about why they love comics instead of "This comic sucks....and here's why!". Every single person working for iFanboy LOVES comics and they won't hesitate to tell you why but what you won't find here is the muck and drudgery about the industry or medium as a whole. As Conner had to correct me when I called into the Voice Mail one week "We want to talk about comics we like" (I might be paraphrasing here, forgive me), that concept seemed so foreign to me at the time because I was so used to wannabe internet "celebrities" doing nothing but shoveling shit on the art form for a little personal attention. Basically what keeps me coming back to this site is valuable information to guide my eyes when looking for reading material and for that general "warm, fuzzy" feeling when it comes to the visual storytelling medium. That's what iFanboy means to me.
