When reddit was young I was the top submitter for /r/comicbooks. It was kinda neat but there was no one to talk to. Now there are multiple comic book subreddits and a bunch of people to geek out with who also know who Hoppy the Marvel Bunny is. It's pretty awesome if you have such a granular topic. Even /r/NFL, not exactly an esoteric interest, is a great community of shared interest. Askscience and AskHistorians are also great.

The main, default subreddits are basically 4chan though. It's an image board. And one where the users think they're experts on all manner of things even though most of them can't rent a car.
