What Genre Grabs You More Than Anything?

Horror tends to draw me in the most, especially when it has to do with the ocean. That being I think I have an eclectic taste in comics.

I like horror, fantasy, and science-fiction and I also like stories that have an unexpected twist to them.

Hmmm,. I really love supernatural and mystery content! I love puzzles and riddles to solve, haha

In general, it's hard to determine what will be the most successful on any platform. When looking at which genres have the most, that's not really a good way to look for "what people are reading". Genres trend, as you pointed out, but not just with readers, but with creators as well. One of my favorite genres, mystery isn't as popular as it used to be. Supernatural and superheros are picking up steam again, especially in the graphic novel and manga markets.

A genre with a low number of comics could be good or bad for you. It would give less competition, but it might mean that not a lot of people are interested in reading them. Ultimately, I don't think a low number of comics in a genre is a good way to decide to not post something. If you are good at marketing, finding target audience and then getting those people to read your work, the genre you use, as long as it is relevant, shouldn't matter.

Hope that helps!

Fantasy , but not just Fantasy. Fantasy combined with Slice of Life, Action or maybe even Thriller! I like combinations of genres and the more combos, the better!

SCI-FI! Superheroes are great but the genre is way oversaturated.

Thanks for all the responses. I am reading even if I don't respond directly.

Fantasy, Action, Adventure, and Scifi for me!

Fantasy, especially sword and sorcery, is my main squeeze. I also enjoy when sci-fi leaks into a bit (ala Gene Wolfe)

I love me a good dystopia to be fair. I think my favourite comics are those that aren't strictly one genre or another but instead a hybrid of several genres. For me my favourite genres are the ones I write in: superhero, sci-fi, contemporary fantasy etc etc. I've always loved those genres.

If you're looking for popularity, romance is oversaturated to high hell but it sure does pull numbers.

Superheroes! Always loved them, from kindergarten onwards! I also love scifi, particularly stories about time travel or robots!

I'm more of slice of life and rom-com comics! They're just more appealing to me and entertrains me the most
