It seems DC Comics has teamed up with Nielsen NRG to get some actual stats on comic book readers. Maybe they'll realize that there actually is a female readership out there that they shouldn't alienate!

More info about the survey here for anyone who's interested. I already filled it out myself.

ETA: According to one blogger: "they threw in a fake title, “Nerak” among the new 52. Make sure you put “Hadn’t heard of it”, or else they may discount all of your answers. CONSTANT VIGILANCE!"

They told me I didn't qualify for their survey. Probably because I put 'didn't want and didn't buy' for just about everything save the ones I didn't know, and the Lantern stuff which is 'want but didn't buy'.

/shrug

They're looking for people who'll kiss their ass.

It's probably bad that I stared at "Nerak" for a good ten minutes before I realized it was fake. I tend to stick to certain parts of the universe, so I seriously thought it was a title I just missed.

It's be fantastic if they actually took all this into account; I'm glad a third party is running it.

I wrote like 4 paragraphs worth of opinions on the whole reboot and everything.

Then they told me I didn't qualify...

I just tl;dred for the better part of an hour at them. Plus the tiny pages loaded slowly. Here's hoping they actually read it though.

I TL;DR'd a bunch and then got flummoxed at the "zip code".

Uh

I guess it's for Americans 'cause I have a postal code, which is six numbers not five.

(When they asked for a state for my LCS, I just picked a random one and then noted what I did in the text box later)

Yep dittoing the TL;DRed at them on my disappointment in the New 52. :|

I was pretty brief in my explanations of why I am disappointed and I said I wasn't interested in a LOT and I only bought two comics.

They processed me, though.

It told me that I don't qualify. I THINK that may be because I haven't bought any comics, mostly because there's not a comic book store in my area. I might retake it using a different email address and just say that I bought the ones that I wanted to buy.

I still have opinions though. >| Somebody TL;DR for me.

Thank you for posting about this, LB! I doubt they'll fully listen to it, but here's hoping!

I am doing this after I get my comics this week.

Holding off on submitting it until I read Aquaman today, but already registering my disgust with Adam Glass and Batman #1 in shorthand. :c
