[net.news.group] net.comix

How about a comic-book newsgroup? Call it net.comix and no one
need worry about the trailing "s".
Or would comics be discussed in net.books?

I think a group on comics would be a great idea!  But you should 
call it net.comics, not net.comix, because comix has all those other 
connotations.(it usually refers to underground comix only)  Maybe 
it should be net.books.panelology, since we all know 
that comics are more literate than most "books" being published these 
days.(to quote Johnny Storm, "Flame On"!)

	Here in Berkeley, we have a store called "comics and comix",
    which carries both.

	Perhaps the net should carry both, too.

	Consider this a vote for net.comics.  I suppose it'll take a month
to decide if it's net.books.comics (too long) or some other subgroup. 
	I'd have sent personal mail to the originator but the path given was
through harpo...

I suggest that people interested in net.comics or net.comix, submit
articles to net.rec to see if there is enough traffic to warrant
creation of such groups.

Why create a new group and find out in two weeks that there's nothing
much left to discuss?  See what's happened to net.rec.coins.

As an aside, my previous proposal to net.rec.stamps is in the same
category.

One more (very enthusiastic) vote for net.comix

I suggest the name "net.comics-lovers" (yes, I'll know it'll get truncated)
to be consistent with the existing ARPA digest.  Eventually, the two should
be connected.
