If you refer to the people who work for you as "lackey", "underling" or "dolt". I actually used to refer to a young woman I was mentoring at a previous employer as my "minion". Does that count? Absolutely. Congratulations, you are a comic book nerd!  |

I doubt that in 2017 there is such a thing as an un-selfcouncious comic book nerd  I don't know if I agree with that. You have the rise of the superhero movies which is a new jumping off point, but I will say I am not self-conscious about it at all...probably has to do with my antisocial tendencies and subtle schadenfreude at other's disdain for my life choices. (Except I am one of the most social people I know...go figure.) and the fact that the superhero movies/tv and comics they've come from have fractured-apart from themselves so much. |

Outrajs is self concious by enjoying the dualism of being a comics geek, yet posting 'here' and what she said about 'schadenfreude'? or something else? |

You may be a comic book nerd if: at work they ask what you think about the newest comic book movie that isn't even out yet! Last week everyone was asking me how much I liked the Black Panther movie and yet it doesn't come out until this weekend!!!

You explain to your wife where Cyborg originated from and though she could care less you continue to explain that the real Cyborg belongs in the Teen Titans.

. . .you decline the grilled asparagus your wife has paired with the filet mignon on Valentine's Day, muttering something about "the D'Bari."

When you buy a new Marvel or DC T-Shirt that has a group shot composed from different artists and years that you know who the actual artist (and sometimes inker)is for each character.

You talk with a friend about valentines gifts and say you rather get a comic then perfumes or chocolate

I wonder if they get a hard time from Dc/Marvel/Disney for using their characters? |
