This list has been updated for Comic-Con 2018.

While I don't normally make posts when I update this thread from year-to-year, but I wanted to bring attention to this list for any new members to the community to help familiarize them with the most popular topics and get them joining in on the discussions.  You can always find the link to this thread in my forum signature.

Also, if you feel like there is a thread that should be included on this list, please PM me and tell me some reasons why.  (Remember that this is not meant to be a complete, comprehensive list of threads, but it's something to get newcomers started out on the forums.) 

I'll do my best to get back to you as soon as I can.  Whether the suggested thread may be added or not, I'll gladly give it careful thought and consideration.  Thanks!  ^__^/
