Okay now I agree on that much.

Books.
I've never read a comic book. I've thumbed through a few at a friend's place here and there but that's it.

Right now the thing I read the most is:
Freakin' textbooks, since I'm going for a degree.
Overall, I guess I read more comics (in the form of graphic novels) than I do novels simply because I can be done with a volume of manga in 1-2 hours as opposed to a couple weeks for a novel as I really don't have the time to sit and read anything much.
Currently following: Black Lagoon, Bleach, Claymore, Fate/Stay Night, Hellsing, Higurashi, Suzuka, and Tsukihime as they come out and read volumes of Kare Kano, King of Thorn, Gundam: Ecole du Ciel, and Yu Yu Hakusho in between those.

I probably read an even mix. I buy and read a nice chunk of comics every week, but mostly read regular books the other six days.
I would say books more than comics at the moment ('bout a 75/25 split)
I don't actually own as many comics as I'd like. The main ones that I own and tend to go back to time and again are Gaiman's Sandman (absolute editions) and Carey's Lucifer TPBs.
I also own a few of the "default" comics that most people buy like Watchmen and V for Vendetta.
I was hoping to start collecting the Hellblazer trade paper backs but ended up having my order cancelled as the first TPB (original sins) went out of print just as I'd submitted my order!
But at the moment it's definately more books than comics but I love both mediums and can't say I prefer one over the other. As long as the story is being told well and keeps me interested I'm happy to keep reading, regardless of whether it's a novel, comic, or manga.
