And I'm reading The Social Contract (Rousseau) for kicks. So?

Are you spending pages/hours lecturing people about your personal concept of reality?

It's one thing to use fiction to create clever stories that ask your readers to think about the nature of things (See: Sandman, in fact see Ellis' SuperGod). It's another to use fiction to outright lecture them what they should be thinking about things. Ask the question, don't tell people what to think.

As one poster put below comic books =/= blog posts, and they don't equal socio-philosophical essays either.
