Comic are the modern philosophical media. Those with power, do they do good, evil, nothing... are they active only in defense of their close community and possessions? The ponderance of this in graphic telling is the parallel to the Illyad, story of Troy, Homer... and those whom bring us these stories are the oracles of the gods.

Entertainment is important, but it should never be the most important thing in your life, and for a lot of forks it has become so. social media, streaming, celebrity gossip, that's the only things they can talk about.

Never been to a con. Seemed a bit toxic for my tastes.

I agree with bluelagoon's original assertion. Entertainment is great for unwinding but it's important not to let it consume your life. Especially nowadays when we're surrounded by distractions at every step. Imo more meaningful activities, especially creative endeavors or any self-improvement/learning, feel more fulfilling in the long run because you can track the progress over time. I've been there, lost a few months of my life just wandering around the apartment, playing video games and watching TV or YouTube, but tbh I was heavily burnt out/depressed at the time so that might influence my perception. You do you, don't let a rando like me tell you how to live your life. I'm just saying that making entertainment the *most important thing* will start feeling really empty after a while.
