Yeah, getting things started is always the hardest part. But, getting people onboard who are better versed in such things is definitely helpful. For example, because serial comics aren't really my thing (at this point, although that could change in time)--I would have never thought about doing discussions on issues/trades! If that's something that you'd be interested in initiating it would be really cool. (And if not, then I can always put out a request for a "leader" for those posts).
Also, good call on FCBD.
The monthly graphic novel discussion is something that I'd definitely enjoy! Of course, people can post recommendations/reviews at any time, but having a reading group within the community sounds like a fun activity (and a good way to build community).
