I did finally pick up a copy of Stranger in a Strange Land that doesn't appear to have been vandalized, so I'll get to read his anti-christian book in its entirety, too!

That book is garbage. Just total crap. And that's coming from an anti-christian. Unless you just have a powerful curiosity about it that must be sated, don't waste your time.

Richard Florida - Rise of the creative class

I am currently on Volume 5 of the Complete Clone Saga Epic. It covers the complete clone saga that ran in the early-mid 90's when Spider Man's clone came back and ruined the continuity of the comics.
As you all know, I recently attended the comic con, and I got all of em for 25 bucks! ;D
Not exactly in the same vein as what you guys are talking about, but hey. Im reading. :lol

Why buy comics when you can download them for free?

I would much much much rather read a comic in printed form than online. I understand the digital media push, but I have zero interest in reading a comic on my screen. Maybe on an iPad relaxing on my couch, but even then I'd much much rather pull an unread book from my shelf and flip the pages. Maybe I'm a dinosaur, but holding the book makes it much more real for me and allows me to invest my interest. Anything on the screen (except for YOU guys of course) is a much more temporary thing to me and doesn't draw me in like that.
PC is for porn & sports. Movies & TV belong on my wide-screen, and comix in issue or collected volume format PLEASE! :bat
