How I get comics

I in no way endorse/suggest that anyone else do this, theft is a crime no matter what!

Comic books are expensive they can be up to $3.00 or higher an issue, and with multiple titles released every week/month it can add up quickly trying to stay update with the story lines, there are also multiple titles per character. (Spider-Man has about seven different comics every month) So as an avid reader on a budget i frequent a few websites that have dedicated scanners and uploaders so i can download the comics I want to read. This is illegal but what are ya gonna do? Once I have downloaded these comics I have a program designed for reading these files, its similar to Adobe Acrobat but for viewing comics. This is how i get my comics, my apologies to Marvel, DC, and the many independent production companies.

what a flaming pile of $H!T

A few weeks ago a movie was released that can only be considered an embarrassment to Marvel comics and the movies that are of this brand. The film is Ghost Rider Spirit of Vengeance starring Nicholas Cage, is so off the charts with his acting style that it overshadows just what the underlying pain that is seminal in the character of Ghost Rider which anyone who has read the comic would attest to. Whether you focus on Johnny Blaze or Daniel Ketch the story is the same man sells his soul to the devil due to the profound loss of the love of his life, man is imbued with the powers of hellfire and brimstone, and is mentally scarred to the point of psychosis, and defends mankind from supernatural threats of hell and Earth with a violent and righteous vengeance. That is not personified by a clumsy, overacting, motorcycle enthusiast who twice in this waste of celluloid urinates fire. Overall fans of this comic or any comics would not approve of this film, it's direction, or plot.

Epic Journey Begins

You know the story there is an average everyman who's minding his own business when, some improbable life altering event takes place and now he can fly, or teleport, or read people's minds. That won't be happening to me (i think) but that is how it starts. The reason for this blog is a class assignment but maybe it will become epic, who knows?
