Who out there reads all the dialogue?

[Sarenaph]

Always fully read them, but I'll admit to a skim read the first time through and letting the illustrations tell the tale.

[Demosthenes]

I read all the dialogue. But I have to admit that some comics have better dialogue than others.

[Aldranar]

The first few times, mostly the drawings itself.
After those first few initial times, I really start focussing on the dailogues and the stories and discover it's even better

[colacao]

Although my native language is not English, I know pretty well this language and I read the comics from start to finish.
I do not understand as you can see only the pictures, not reading the dialogue.

[Casotto]

Sometimes I read, sometimes I don't; it depends on whether or not the story grabs me in the first pages.

[Boundsiera]

As a writer myself, I always read the dialogue, be it my first time thru or my forth or fifth time. I like getting drawn into the story and find myself caring more about the characters than I would by simply just turning to a specific page.

Now don't get me wrong, there are times I open up a story to read knowing "oh yeah...I can't wait to get to that one scene". And perhaps I read a bit faster getting to those parts (having known the story already)...but I do find myself reading the dialogue pretty much all the time.

I'll put up with less than spectacular art in a comic if the story is great.

Depends on the dialogue. I always look at the art, but if the dialog is too repetitive I tend to skip over it. If it helps tell an interesting story than, obviously, it gets my attention.

[Boundsiera]

Also, very cool you are a writer yourself? What kind of work do you write?

Mostly action/adventure short stories. Dabbling a little in sci fi. And of course a bit of erotica. Couple of short stories published up on some websites. Wrote a bit of fan fiction based off a video game too.

[OnlyInMyImagination]

I always read the dialogue,it gives the comic much more depth and feel.I admire the art and at the same time I admire reading and thinking about the situation the captive character is in and the intent of the one doing the fun stuff

[ernestgreene]

I like the thought balloons from inside the girl's heads, which give us some sense of their personalities. The guys' dialog tends to get predictable.
