COMIX@INDRA.COM
The comix list has a culture all its own; fools are not tolerated gladly. If you do join, I recommend that you read the list for a bit before posting.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The comix list has moved recently from world.std.com to indra.com. If you run across references to comix@world.standard.com, the addresses will no longer work. Other than the change in address, the comix list works exactly the same way as before.
Here's some basic info about the list and its charter (from the welcoming message):
The comix list is intended for discussion of non-mainstream and independent comics. We generally don't talk about superheroes much, especially any superhero which is part of an overall superhero universe (i.e. DC, Marvel, Image, Ultraverse, Comics Greatest World, Milestone, etc.) We don't talk about Marvel Mutants or Spawn at all.
The purpose of this list is *not* negotiable, as there are many other resources for discussion of other types of comics.
(The following is blunt, because while this is
normally a friendly list, we've found that some people need this
to be spelled out in very plain language. No offense is intended
to those who don't need it spelled out). If you don't like the
deliberate limitations of this list's topic, deal with it; it's
your problem not ours. While tangents towards and comparisons
with more mainstream books and topics sometimes come up, these
are usually started by people who have been on the list a while
and shown from their posts that they understand what the list is
about and thus have more latitude. In fact, it is suggested that
newcomers wait a couple of weeks before posting in order to get
an understanding of the list's atmosphere and topic selection. If
you discover that these are not the type of comics you want to
read about and discuss, you can unsubscribe by sending e-mail to
majordomo@indra.com; in the body of the message, type UNSUBSCRIBE
